Borneo

The island of Borneo is made up of parts of three different countries - Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia. The most popular and exciting spots are all in the Malaysian part. Borneo offers soft adventure, great wildlife, unique culture and some great beaches.

Malaysian Borneo is split into two provinces - Sabah and Sarawak. Your visit to Borneo can include one or both of these very different destinations.

The coast offers some great diving opportunities, particularly off East Sarawak and on the islands of Sabah, with some unique marine life, corals and turtles. In the Kota Kinabalu area you will find two stunning Shangri-la hotels, which are packed with activities for all ages and interests, from water-skiing to parasailing, or just basking in the sun.

A side trip to Sandakan for the world-famous Sepilok Orang-utan Sanctuary is recommended. The more energetic could also consider a trip to climb Mount Kinabalu, Borneo's highest point.

We can arrange a visit to Selingan, also known as Turtle Island. Here you can visit the turtle hatchery, and in the evening you can watch the turtles come ashore to lay their eggs.

Our 'Wild Man of Borneo' tour is perfect for those who wish to experience jungle treks and Iban warriors. The tour combines the best of Sabah and Sarawak with a visit to Kuala Lumpur.

With such variety on offer, Borneo is very much a tailor-made destination. We will be happy to assist with planning your visit to Sabah and/or Sarawak and combining it with Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur or wherever else you choose.
