About
Welcome to Borneo Wild Safaris – Your Gateway to Untamed Borneo.
Previously known as Borneo Wakid Adventures, we’ve rebranded to Borneo Wildlife Safaris to better reflect our deep focus on delivering exceptional birdwatching and wildlife photography tours throughout Malaysian Borneo.
Our passion lies in showcasing Borneo’s unparalleled biodiversity through the lens — whether it’s spotting the elusive Bornean bristlehead deep in the rainforest canopy or photographing an orangutan swinging through ancient trees at sunrise. We design specialized, small-group and private expeditions for birders, photographers, and nature lovers seeking rare encounters, expert guidance, and meaningful travel experiences.
Why the Rebrand?
As we’ve grown, so has our commitment to providing a more specialized and immersive experience. “Borneo Wildlife Safaris” represents our evolution — from a general adventure company to a niche operator focused on birding, wildlife watching, and photography. While our name has changed, our dedication to responsible tourism, deep local knowledge, and client satisfaction remains stronger than ever.
