Search for endangered wildlife in Borneo with the help of local eyes, as your tour leader gives you a first-hand insight into the rich tapestry that can be found in the wilderness. Visiting special reserves set aside in rainforest terrain leads to an awareness of Borneo’s rich natural heritage and ultimately garners further support that they be earmarked for protection so that they can be enjoyed and appreciated by future generations. Tourism also helps Borneo preserve vestiges of its rich cultural heritage. By visiting various villages and remote communities inhabited by various indigenous tribes, travellers get to appreciate the intricate diversity of this country as exemplified by the many and varied cultural experiences on offer. From looking for proboscis monkeys and hornbills on the Kinabatangan River to close encounters with orang-utan at a rehabilitation centre, travellers become acutely aware of the importance of conservation and become ambassadors for the continual protection of wildlife and wilderness the world over.
In their continuous support of tourism in Borneo this operator is training our tour leaders on a variety of issues, from environmental awareness to First Aid. This not only assists in the conduct of a tour but also provides leaders with important life skills. By only employing tour leaders born and bred in the regions they visit, they are supporting local economies. Through offering employment and steady revenue, tourism can ultimately make a real positive difference to local communities.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
