RFI reputable mammal watching company in Sichuan & Tibet

I am looking for a reputable local company in China which can organize a 2-3 week independent trip in spring 2025 or 2026 to see reliable Snow Leopard, Tibetan Antelope, Wild Yak, Red Panda and Chinese Monal. With a bonus of as many other birds and mammals as possible (eg. Pallas Cat etc). This probably requires much changing places and an internal flight. I look for the personal experience of Western mammal watchers (you were on a trip and it was good), because there are diverse providers with a variable quality.

This will be my 4th trip to China, and I already been to Foping (Giant Panda, Golden Snub-nosed Monkey, Takin etc) and Tibet (Tibetan Fox, Kiang etc, lots of high altitude birds). Therefore I prefer not to revisit places on a standard tour.

And if somebody wants to join such a trip (2 experienced, friendly, fit birdwatchers and mammalwatchers), please feel  free to PM me!

    I just got back from a trip with the famous “Sid” in Chengdu. Both he and his guide ZZ are really excellent. Tang Jun – who runs China Mammal Tour also has a very good reputation. You can see recent reports from him and Sid’s tours on the China page. Have fun! I am a huge China fan after my recent trip.

    Hi, Jurek, I completely endorse John’s comment above. The skill, knowledge and, most importantly contacts that Sid Francis has built up in the region are second to none. You can contact him here: chengduuk@hotmail.com

    Have a great trip.

    Regards, Miles
