See what Susie's and Ellen's Said about the recent birding tour

"Thanks for a fantastic birding trip in Malaysia. In three days, we saw
more than 95 species of spectacular birds! I was amazed by the skill and
knowledge of our guide, Mr. Lee Kok Chung. He not only took us to diverse
habitats and was knowledgeable about what birds we would find at each site,
but he also seemed to be able to call the birds to us!

Mr. Lee appeared to be communicating with the birds through his miming of the bird calls. It was really fun and interesting. Thanks for humoring our interest in Buddist and Hindu temples by stopping off at them whenever we wished."

Md Susanna Garcia and Ellen Hahn (Louisiana, USA), July 2006

 

What Peter said;

 

Just want to thank you for two excellent days' birding with Lee Kok Chung, one at Fraser's Hill and the other in the area of Kuala Selangor.  On both days we saw at least 70 species (each day) of birds and a variety of other wildlife.  Very good views were obtained and most of the target species were quickly discovered.  I would recommend these trips to anyone interested in wildlife.


Mr Peter Andrew- UK, November 2007

 

 

What Paul Say about us;

Sylvia & I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our 8-day birding trip with Lee in October.  Thanks to his excellent skills we were able to see over 220 species.  He also took us to some excellent chinese eating places during our stay.  The remainder of our holiday in New Zealand was also brilliant and we managed to see most of the endemic birds there although, because of its remoteness, there are far fewer species than in Malaysia.  Wishing you a happy and prosperous 2008.

Mr Paul & Sylvia Custerson -USA OCT 2007

 

What Mary Said;

We enjoyed the trip thoroughly and am impressed by the variety of birds we saw.  I am certainly passing along the word about your company.

Md Mary Anderson - USA Dec 2007

 

What Wayne and Margaret Twydle,

Now that we have arrived home, we just wanted to say thank you very much to Endemic Guides for the organisation of our 9 day 8 night bird tour. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, seeing more bird species than we had ever hoped for. This of course was due to the expert skills of our guide, Lee, who seemed to almost have the ability to call up birds whenever we needed them! His imitations of their calls was remarkable, and his equally impressive patience often delivered good views of uncommon species.

 He also took good care of us: he always checked our accommodation, and advised us on food. We are still recovering from his sense of humour!!

We are very happy to recommend Endemic Guides to anyone in New Zealand who may be considering travelling to Malaysia

Kind regards

Wayne and Margaret Twydle - July 2008

What Dr Mckay Say,


Sorry for taking so long to write to you.  We are back at work in Papua New Guinea now and things are crazy here - as usual.

Our time in Danum Valley was great.  The food and the service at Borneo Rainforest Lodge were particularly outstanding.  It rained heavily every afternoon we were there, so we didn't get to do as much bird-watching as we would have liked.  But we made the best of every morning and saw some really great birds.  We really enjoyed ourselves.

Overall, our trip to Sabah was fantastic.  I think it was the best holiday that I have
ever had.  We really didn't have any complaints about anything, the whole time we were traveling.

Many thanks again to you for making our planning and our holiday work out so well.  We will certainly recommend you to anybody we know who is planning a holiday in Malaysia.  And we are thinking that we might go back there again within the next couple of years, so we might be in touch again.  If we are ever in KL for any reason, we will certainly look for you.

Thanks again and Best Wishes

From Dr Robert Mckay(20 days tour for Kinabatangan river, Maliau Basin, Danum Valley and Tabin Wildlife reserve)

September 2008

 

What Mr/Mrs hugh Say,

Just a note to say how much we enjoyed our trip to Sabah. Andrew was an
excellent guide, and the birds were exciting. Plus we saw orangutans and many
other good mammals in the wild! All accommodations were excellent as
well. So we were very satisfied, and thank you very much for all your
help in arranging our tour.

I shall recommend Endemic Guides to my birdwatching (and other) friends.

Best wishes,

Hugh Dingle ( USA -Currently resident in Australia, 12 days birding tour in Kinabalu Park +  Sepilok +SAndakan + Kinabatangan River + Danum Valley)

What Mr/Mrs Youren say about our tour.

We finally arrived in the UK on Jan 16th.

We both wanted to thank you for organising our bird trips - the one in Kuala
Selangor/Frazer Hill with Lee Kok Chung and the second one in Penang with Mr
Kumar.

We wanted to express our thanks to Lee Kok Chung - the 3 days were very busy
but very rewarding - his enthusiasm and bird knowledge were superb and he
was also excellent company with a great sense of humour. Lots of high lights
on the trip with a total of 122 species identified - but especially seeing
the orange breasted trogon, the gold whiskered and red throated barbet,
blue winged leafbird, chestnut capped laughing thrush, silver eared mesia
and a host of other birds. We also appreciated how well Lee was organised
with good bird books and a comprehensive check list. Please use this
testimonial on your website if you would like to do so.

We will certainly recommend your service to our friends back in the UK if
they are planning to travel to Malaysia - we hope to get back again perhaps
to Sabah and Taman Negara and would like if we do you use your services
again.

Once again many thanks,

Veronica and John Youren -UK -Dec 2008

What Mr Dave Tour say about our birding tour,

I would like to thank EndemicGuides for organising my 4 day stopover in
Malaysia - all of the travel and hotel arrangements worked extremely well.
My guide Lee showed an impressive ability to find birds even in thick
rainforest - and great patience in ensuring that I saw every bird that he
did. All in all a very enjoyable 4 days and I would recommend EndemicGuides
to anyone wanting a birding trip in the area.
