Excellent sighting of the Douc Langur with Cillian RSDL Guide who is a great tracker and naturalist he was able to find 2 troops with adults and young ones and we had great sightings and photographs. It was an amazing experience and highly recommend this tour.
We had an excellent tour and sightings of the Duc Langur with our amazing guide Cillian RSDL guide. We saw 2 troups with adults and young ones. We got some great photos as well. Highly recommend this tour and really great guide Cillian for his knowledge and spotting abilities.
Cillian and Sean were our guides this morning. They were very friendly and knowledgeable about the monkeys! It was such a great experience and we even were given fresh local fruits! Cillian is an amazing photographer and took pictures of my girlfriend and I! I highly recommend the tour!
It was a surreal experience to come up close and personal with an endangered species in the wild. There are only approximately 3,000 red shanked douc langurs in the wild, of which almost half are in Son Tra Peninsula. I opted for a car instead of bike (for an additional 700,000 VND), which offered more comfort. The downside was that the tour had to stick to the main road, as opposed to the bike trail where sightings of the langurs were more likely. Nevertheless, my guide Alan tried his very best to look for the elusive langurs, and we managed to spot a few of them near InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort - I was elated. In this trip, we spotted a total of 2 mothers with babies, which was apparently quite rare. Alan was also very knowledgeable; he could answer my questions about the ecology (e.g. natural predators) and social behaviour of the langurs. He's an avid photographer himself, and had a collection of many interesting moments of the langurs (jumping, mating, peeing, etc.), which he would gladly show and share with clients. He also made sure that I got the best shots of the langurs. I would highly recommend this tour.
We went to see the Redshank langurs with Alan and Luke on two motorbikes. They arrived on time to pick us up and were excellent in helping us find the monkeys. In total we saw about 30 some were very close 6 to 10 meters away. The experience was excellent and I highly recommend the tour and our guides.
Absolutely amazing experience! This is definitely the place to see langurs. It was my second time here, and I saw them both times! 🐒 The views are beautiful, and Alan and Mike were incredibly helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!
Leo is an excellent guide. We exchanged many emails beforehand, and he really took our preferences into account. Thanks to him, we saw plenty of langurs, and he gave us detailed explanations about their history and ecology. I highly recommend this activity. とても優しい方で、子供達のことも気遣ってくれました！ 事前の説明や連絡もとても丁寧で安心してお任せできました。 猿を見つける目もすばらしく最高のガイドさんでした。 レオさんありがとう！
Absolutely amazing, very interesting and fascinating. Loved how respectful and patient the guides Alan and Luke have been. Magic was even in there eyes when one of the monkeys jumped or a baby showed its head. Highly recommended.
Alan and Luke are the best tourguids. Saw a lot of monekys, enjoyed amazing viewes and got interessing informations and stories about that special monkeys! Thank uuuuu
The tour was worth every penny!! My skilled tour guide, Cillian, managed to find three troops (about 20 langurs) through different noises they make and understanding their behaviors. Even with only the binoculars, the langurs were breathtaking!! I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore Danang beyond the beach!!
