I had a 3 day birding tour of Cat Tien with Mr. Dung. He is a highly knowledgeable guide and well-respected in the area. In the three days we visited a variety of habitats and saw a large number of great birds. I was hesitant to use a guide before the trip, thinking it is a well birded area and I could do it solo. However, I can honestly saw I wouldn’t have seen half the birds I’d I had not been with Mr. Dung.
He used to work for the park and, as such, has a relationship with current workers and is able to go into areas not always open to the public.

I booked a 4-day wildlife tour with Mr.Dzung, and he was amazing from the moment I met him until the very end. He is extremely informative and dedicated to making sure I got to see every wildlife animal I wanted to see. 100% recommended — you won’t be disappointed

Mr Dzung and Mr Khan were absolutely fantastic guides. They know all the names of animals and birds in English and can spot them extremely well. We were delighted to spend 3 nights in Cat Tien national park with them learning about the local wildlife, primates and even getting us a tour at the free the bears rescue, where we were able to make enrichment toys for the bears and watch them interacting for much longer than we expected. The tour of the Primate rescue centre was very informative as well. Lastly, we wanted to thank them for accommodating us last minute, we only heard about the park the night before we visited but Mr Dzung was kind enough to travel back to the park for us on short notice.
We booked a tour for 3 days and it was an amazing experience. Dzung was such an incredible guide for us! His tours and explanations were interesting, fun, and he is very knowledgeable on every topic related to cat tien rainforest. I would strongly recommend Vietnature to anyone that plans to visit the Vietnam rainforest and wants to live an exciting experience

I booked a tour for 4 days. I stayed in the park and had an amazing time. The tour was incredible from night safari and night walks trough the jungle to a gibbon tour and a beautiful walk/ hike to crocodile lake and tour trough the village, an amazing boot tour seeing a little fish farm. Thank you so much for an amazing diverse tour! Thank you for being such a kindhearted guide! I highly recommend a tour! wildlife and nature in cattien national park

We had a fantastic experience with our guide in Cat Tien National Park. He was incredibly well-prepared and made sure we were comfortable and safe at all times — providing mosquito spray, leech socks, and hats for the tours. He was also very friendly, and we felt completely at ease with him throughout our stay. His knowledge of the national park, its wildlife, and plant life was impressive. He explained everything with great detail and enthusiasm, which really enriched our experience. Although we unfortunately had to cancel our last tour on the third day, he completely understood and did not charge us for it, which we truly appreciated. We also booked two private transfers with him — one from Da Lat to the park and another from the park to Ho Chi Minh City — and both went absolutely smoothly. We would recommend this guide to anyone without hesitation. Thank you again for everything!

Nguyen Luong Dzung was an excellent guide for us for a two plus day bird tour at Cat Tien park reserve. Many excellent spottings and photos. He had extensive knowledge, excellent equipment and preparation, and unbounded and infectious enthusiasm. He found and attracted many varieties of birds. My wife’s camera got much better pictures with her zoom, but I captured a few with my iPhone.

This year, we visited Vietnam for the first time on our yearly birding trip in March, and we were not let down by the stunning country. (Thru Ruth’s Lens) Ruth and I will always treasure our vacation. We would like to thank Vietnature tour, our incredible guide, for their excellent support during our trip. Their unwavering dedication and excellent customer service made us feel completely at home.

I was lucky to meet Dzung, a 5 star birdguide who knows every trail and every bird sound in Cattien and probably beyond. I can highly recommend Vietnature Tour

I’ve been 10 days Birdwatching and photography with Vietnature Tour. I had an excellent Guide: Dung Luong Nguyen. I’ve been some hours at Ma Da (would have been better to have a longer time there). Then we went to Cat Tien. Going on to Di Linh and then to Da Lat! Unfortunately I don’t get my most important target-bird: Green Cochoa. But at least we heard the bird twice times (afternoon and morning). So I have to come back! Thanks to Dung! I can really recommend him!!! Karlheinz (66 y – Germany)

My wife and I stayed two nights at a wonderful lodge in Cattien and Dzung was our guide for two days. Dzung was an excellent guide, we had two mornings birding at an easy pace, and an afternoon in a hide looking for Pittas. Dzung was excellent at finding us fantastic birds to enjoy and was good company. We only wish we had been able to stay longer because 2 days is not enough to explore this wonderful place in such good company.

The best Cattien experience I could imagine. So thankful for the opportunity to see so many rare and endangered animals in part of the world that doesn’t have much natural habitats left. We had the best guide, Khainh, that showed us around and found the animals in ease with his very good eye. Highly recommended!!! Thank you so much Vietnature!

We recently enjoyed 3 days / 2 nights at Cat Tien National Park with Vietnature Tour. Our guide, Nguyen Luong Dzung, was knowledgeable, professional and entertaining. We did a variety of activities including hiking to the amazing Crocodile Lake, a boat trip and a couple of wildlife walks / drives in order to maximise our chances of seeing Cat Tien’s fauna and flora. The forest is very impressive and the paths / trails are very good for walking on. There are café facilities at the Crocodile Lake which were ideal to relax and watch the crocodiles and birds. Overall a very enjoyable visit to Cat Tien National Park. In addition, Nguyen Luong Dzung gave us contacts for nature guides further north in Vietnam which was very helpful to us.
Had an awesome experience the gibbon trek was incredible! Our guide was really knowledgeable and passionate about the jungle they also have the only crocodile sanctuary in south east Asia lots of crocs

We had frantastic weekend with Dzung at Cattien National Park. His knowledge and enthusiasm about the park, It’s flora and fauna is second to none. He shared so much with us during the short time we had at the park. We are avid outdoors and birdwatching people so it was great to see so many new and beautiful bird to add to over “life list”. Dzung had worked in the park a few years ago and It seemed that everywhere we went, he was greeting with a smile and he had a lot of friends to catch up with. He shared alots of storie, answered all our questions about VietNam, the country, Its people and cultures as well ass those about naturer. We thorouguly recommend Dzung as a guide and wish him many more fun adventures. Keep smiling.
