Borneo / Malaysia was fabulous. Saw so much wildlife and the people are so friendly, helpful and courteous. I will definitely be back some day to explore further and this tour was a great introduction to a new part of the world for me.

Ida | Traveled in October
The holiday was the best. I actually was impressed that there really was no , out of pocket expenses. We only had to pay for the tree top walk and a few meals - I was impressed with this.

I would recommend this trip, in fact I would say it's a must, especially if your interested in wildlife and get a better understanding of the socio-economic reasons why rainforests are being replaced by agriculture. From countless up-close wildlife experiences (I would say guaranteed) deep inside the rain forests to amazing natural geological wonders of the world, this trip just keeps on giving. As always our Exodus leader or guide was just excellent on every level. Jay helped up to understand the natural world and its unique symbiotic relationships and the recent balance and regulation to help protect the remaining rain forests. We always felt safe and often important as Jay was well known as a long standing guide in the area. I've come away feeling lucky to experience such a country and keep replying my memories so they become indelible ones.

We can thoroughly recommend this tour. The itinerary meant a fair amount of travelling but it was well planned and well supervised by Nostalia our guide. In two weeks we ticked off all the creatures on our pre-tour wish list apart from pigmy elephants, more than compensated by brilliant encounters with bats, orangutans, monkeys, hornbills, and flying squirrels. In between we had time to explore the cities of Kuching and Kota Kinabalu and sample great local food from restaurants and hawker stalls.
