Borneo Quad Biking is different from other operators for the following reasons:

  1. We are currently the only quad biking operator in the district of Kiulu.
  2. We are part of Kiulu Farmstay – a community based ecotourism project – which implements a social entrepreneurship approach that acts as a catalyst for community development and capacity building.
  3. We contribute RM10 for each adult who purchase our tour package to the MUKEST (Mukim Ulu Kiulu Ecotourism Solutions and Technologies) Community Development Fund.

We recommend that you wear long pants, comfortable clothing and trainers. For your safety, open-toe shoes and flip flops are not allowed. We’ll kit you out by providing helmets and gloves.

After a day out on our quadbikes, you will either be muddy, dusty or sweaty – so bring a change of clothing. A small backpack is best for carrying the essential items – sun block, sunglasses, hat, water bottle, personal medication, towel, and camera. Lastly, bring your excitement and adventurous spirit!

A double rider bike carries 2 riders in tandem (1 driver and 1 optional pillion passenger)
