Malaysia has a well-deserved reputation as one of the world's major birding destinations. The Malay Peninsula is one the most bio-diverse regions on earth and is truly a treasure house containing some of the most exotic plant, animal, and marine life on the planet. Its rainforest is inhabited with tigers, leopards, elephants, sun bears, tapirs, rhinos and many others. The whooping call of the gibbons and the unfamiliar cries of the hornbills, pheasants, barbets, and babblers fill the early morning air. The richness of birds combined with the wonderful scenery and friendly people makes any visit an unforgettable experience for the birder, be they a first timer or veteran. Book now »
