BORNEO ADVENTURE - 5 days/ 4 nights (BAV)

Kuching / Kota Kinabalu / Sandakan

Private Tour - daily departure

Our Borneo Adventure features a fascinating journey to Borneo, the 3rd largest island in the world situated in the western Pacific north of Java, largely covered by dense jungle and rainforest. This five-day excursion gives our guests a perfect opportunity to experience Malaysia's scenic beauty, exotic culture and of course, intriguing Borneo wildlife.

Your voyage begins in Kuching, the capital city of the "Land of the Hornbill" has a charm unlike any other Malaysian town. This is the place to head for if you’re thinking of lazy strolls in market places, drinks by the riverside, old world charm and some fine shopping. Next you will overnight at Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah fondly known as KK, overlooking the South China Sea, and a thriving city and commercial centre, with world-class resorts and a popular tourist spot. Then, embark on an mystical expedition to the world's largest orangutan sanctuary at Sepilok, set in 43 square kilometers of beautiful virgin rainforest where young orphaned or captive orangutans are taught survival skills so that they may return to their natural habitat.
