Our story

BirdLens Tangkoko, told through the people who guide it.

BirdLens Tangkoko is led by Stefen Bee, commonly known as Epen, who works as both a tour operator and a tour guide with us.

The guiding journey began in 2017, when Epen first started working as a local guide in Tangkoko.

Along the way, the team learned patience, gained a deeper understanding of nature, and developed better techniques for observing wildlife and capturing meaningful images.

With us, every tour is more than a trip — it is a shared moment of discovery through the lens of nature.
