Visiting: Borneo

We think that Borneo is one of South East Asia’s best-kept secrets, with incredible beauty and amazing diversity. On this 18-day adventure showcases the best that the region has to offer.

Our adventure begins in Sabah, a Malaysian state renowned for its abundance of flora, fauna and superb coral reefs. Our first stop is Sepilok’s orangutan sanctuary. The opportunity to see these amazing creatures swinging freely in the forest is an unforgettable experience. From Sandakan we travel to Sabah’s longest river – the Kinabatangan, where we take a boat ride at dusk through tropical rainforest and marvel at the wildlife.

We then we make our way to trek up Mount Kinabalu, where the views from the summit are simply breathtaking.

An express boat takes us to Sarawak – truly an adventurer’s paradise. We begin with a stay in a traditional longhouse, as guests of the Iban people. Only last century these people were warring headhunters who killed their enemies with blowpipes! From here we trek along the ancient Headhunters Trail before making our way by boat into the pristine rainforests of Gunung Mulu National Park and exploring the massive cave systems. Kuching is one of South East Asia’s most attractive and charming cities and a launching pad for our trip to Bako National Park.
