Itinerary

Borneo, home to critically endangered species such as the rhino, elephant, leopard, and orangutan, is a wildlife enthusiast's paradise. Its breathtaking scenery and rich biodiversity make it a top tourist destination in Asia for natural lovers. This small-group escorted Borneo adventure tour, limited to 16 people, takes you on an unforgettable journey through the island's Sabah and Sarawak, ensuring an intimate and immersive Borneo safari experience.

The Malaysian state of Sarawak offers a fascinating mix of history, culture, and natural beauty, making your holiday in Malaysia more meaningful. In the charming capital of Kuching, you’ll discover a blend of colonial history and local traditions. Explore the awe-inspiring cave systems of Mulu and experience life at an Iban longhouse, where you’ll get a glimpse into the rich heritage of Sarawak’s indigenous people. Meanwhile, Sabah, located in northern Borneo, boasts an abundance of wildlife, stunning national parks, and idyllic beaches. Best attractions in Malaysia also include a visit to Kinabalu National Park, home to the majestic Mount Kinabalu, rainforest adventures in Danum Valley, and a scenic cruise along the Kinabatangan River to observe the region’s vibrant wildlife.

Great tour package for us. Very reasonably priced. A phone call with customer service helped clarify scheduling coordination concerns. Booking was a straight forward and an uncomplicated process. We are excited about our planned adventure. Our only problem was in inputting the discount code correctly to achieve the advertised discount. Just didn’t happen.
