Malaysia praser's hill or Taman negara birding tour in Next spring (1 Viewer)

[shane8504]

Hello. I want to go Malaysia for birding in next spring(Feb to Apr, 2024) almost 1 week or so on.
I have just little plan for this trip, including dates, because I'm a businessman who have not much vacation. So I want to find companions who want go abroad in similar situation.

In my ruff plan, I'll go Fraser's hill and Taman negara NP. I found some reasonable birding travel agencies for this plan.

Somewho have interest with my plan, please contact me by this thread~

p.s. I'm not a native English speaker, but I can speak at least full-communication. I can speak Korean, Japanese well, and little Chinease.

This itinerary is very easy to do independantly.

At Taman Negara, two sides of the river, one side with the park, has a resort and on the other side are cheap, backpacker places and floating restaraunts which do some great food.

At Fraser's Hill, there is a range of accommodation and a few restaraunts with numerous trails and a road down to 'The Gap', which prov ides some good birding along it's, lf I remember, 8KM length.

Are there good enough for go alone by walk?

There used to be a guy at Fraser's Hill who was a very good guide but he's getting old now so not sure he still does it, if I remeber, his name was Durai?


Edit; Here he is

Meet K S Durai, accidental birdwatcher-turned-celebrity Birdman of Fraser’s Hill

The 65-year-old is a larger-than-life character whose reputation precedes him.

Yes, it's very easy, read some reports to find out where the best birds are seen.

If then, I likely want go there by alone as soon, althouh there're no companions.

Driving in Malaysia is very easy; driving in Thailand is rather more demanding especially in towns. Both your sites are very easy to do independently from a logistical point of view but birding at TN is hard work so do be prepared for that.

I thought so too, so I'll hire tour guide than try it later, not now... My plan is still valid yet.
