With so many birds like this Great Argus pheasant,…
…Oriental Pied Hornbill,…
…Lesser Fish-Eagle…
…or Moustached Hawk-Cuckoo, Borneo is a very exciting place.
Many of the birds are startlingly colourful, like this Red-napedTrogon…
…or the tiny Rufous-backed Kingfisher…
Many are colourful and secretive, like the endemic Blue-headed Pitta…
…or the Bornean Banded Pitta…
Others are colourful, but cute and more conspicuous…
…while some are less colourful but no less charming… Here a canopy-dwelling Green Iora…
…and the mountain-dwelling endemic Eyebrowed Jungle-Flycatcher.
This Indigo Flycatcher is only found on the mountain tops of Borneo, Sumatra and Java.
But Borneo is more than birds. It is a naturalist’s paradise, with so many special mammals like Bornean Orang-utan,…
…Kinabalu Squirrel…
…and the wildly unlikely-looking Proboscis Monkey.
Then there are the reptiles and amphibians. Here a Wallace’s Flying Frog named after the great 19th century naturalist, Alfred Russel Wallace…
…and a host of gorgeous butterflies and amazing insects. This is the dinner-plate sized Golden Birdwing.
…and many mind-boggling plants like this Arum…
…the legendary Rafflesia…
…and other weird oddities.
The Bornean rainforest is the most diverse on earth,…
…the scenery often spectacular,…
…the birding is always varied…
…and fun!
We’ll experience plenty of local culture. The roadside markets are colourful…
…and the countryside picturesque.
Our accommodation is very comfortable and in great locations.
The facilities for birding in Borneo are outstanding…
…and Borneo has the best canopy walkways in Asia!
Well be birding on rivers,…
…and traveling by boat, car and plane.
Borneo is nothing less than a wonderful experience!
