(more)Greg Morrison
From
£2,765

The most memorable was the people, land and wildlife! Our holiday was a truly beautiful journey and I would highly recommend it. We spent two nights at Tabin and I think it would be better to do three nights and spread out all the activities a bit more. Gaya Island Resort was a piece of heaven. (more)Terri Envey
Difficult-there were many. Seeing a wild Orangutan, just outside the cave at Gomantong, close up and "posing" for us, or rounding a bend on the Kinabatangan river to see 30-40 pigmy elephants of all ages on the bank. A set of experiences rather than just a holiday. (more)Elizabeth Barratt
Every spotting of the orangutans, gibbons, birds, lizards, or even pigs was delightful. My husband and I adopted an orphaned Orangutan At the Sepilok Orangutan Sanctuary. All along the way of our safari, the guides told us how we would recognize the child Orangutan. I spotted her immediately when she came out for the 4 pm feeding.

Fantastic - best holiday we have ever been on! (more)Rachel Duncan
Trekking in the Danum Valley was a definite highlight - from sitting on our sundeck listening to the hornbill calls to walking the canopy walkway in the dawn mist before breakfast and climbing to the highest viewpoint before returning for a fabulous buffet lunch. (more)Hannah Rousell
The most memorable part was Abai Jungle lodge - so remote and romantic, plus tons of wildlife. It felt like the first time you visited a zoo.
(more)Leah Brinton
From
£1,088
excluding flights
The jungle walk at night and the Perhentian islands was memorable. It was great. I really enjoyed it. We had an amazing guide and we were only a group of 3. Don't know how much different it would be with a bigger group. (more)Bettina Buomberger
Most memorable? Definitely climbing Mount Kinabalu. But very closely followed by the wildlife from orangutans, wild elephants to the sea turtles... Excellent... You should definitely book on this trip! (more)Kirsty Howland
The various methods of travel through Borneo really gave you a sense of travelling like locals and getting the maximum "real life" experience... The best travel experience I have had so far!
(more)Michelle Blois
From
£965

Probably seeing orang-utans in the wild and up very close at Sepilok rehabilitation centre but the whole trip was both memorable and exciting! (more)Linda Beviss

understatement) (more)Sallieann YOounf

From

Memorable parts?
Seeing orang-utans in the wild at Kinabatangan, and in the semi-wild at Sepilok, and seeing a herd of elephants cross the river at Kinabatangan seeing Deer Cave and Clearwater Cave at Mulu.
Tips?
I don't really think the beach resort at the end was necessary to unwind. Don't worry about the clothes you bring.
Local benefits?
yes, we were made very welcome at longhouses
Overall rating?
excellent, better even than I expected (more)David Fear
From
£968
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Arriving at Bako National Park (via an exhilarating boat ride), wading on to the un-spoilt beach and then seeing hibiscus monkey's swinging through the
trees.
Tips?
Malaysian Borneo, centered around Kuching, is a brilliant way for families with younger children to get a taste of all tha the country has to offer. Nothing is
more than an 40 minute drive from the delightful city - jungle, orangutangs, monkeys, frogs and stunning beach.
Local benefits?
All... (more)Danielle Fieller
From
£2,469
excluding flights
We had some excellent wildlife sightings particularly of orangutans and pygmy elephants. We consider we were very lucky in what we saw. Being in Danum
Valley was special even though many of our best wildlife sightings were away from there. It's a great environment with excellent staff at the Borneo Rainforest
Lodge.

Memorable parts?
Seeing the orangutans and elephants in the jungle.
Tips?
Rainforest trekking can be strenuous in the heat. Would advise stout footwear and poles if at all unsteady.
Local benefits?
Certainly benefited local people and supported conservation. I worry about the number of plastic water bottles we got through and there is no infrastructure in place for recycling.
Overall rating?
Absolutely brilliant! The itinerary was was interesting and varied. The 2... (more)Steve Blake

From
£1,795

Tips?
Relax on the trip. Every thing promised is delivered, but some times you have to just accept there will be delays.
Local benefits?
Yes. Local guides, hotels, restaurants and traders all gained from my spend. This supported conservationism by entrance fees, and donations to Orangutans.
Overall rating?
Really enjoyable.... (more)John Roy Dewell
From
£999
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Too many highs to pick just one. Releasing the Turtles at Telok Sarabang, rafting on bamboo rafts, all the people I've met, the Jungle; a scary and extremely challenging place but is magical!

It was an amazing wildlife adventure - I feel very fortunate to have seen freshly hatched baby green turtles and wild orangutans.
(more)Claire Onody
There were many memorable moments. Too few to fully list out! One destination was the Gomantong Birdnest Caves. The main cave tests all your senses. Certainly a location for the next Indiana Jones film, not for flip-flop wearing tourists! (more)Jonathan Reed-Lethbridge
