Our European travel agent booked part of our stay in Borneo through Borneo Eco Tours and we had an amazing experience with Ashley as our very knowledgeable guide. We did see all the Borneo big 5 (Pygmy Elephant, the Proboscis Monkey, Orangutan (at the rehabilitation centre), the Rhinoceros Hornbill and also the Estuarine Crocodile). Our driver Idwin drove very safely avoiding potholes where possible.

The hotels we stayed in (Sepilok Nature Lodge for 1 night and Sukau Rainforest Lodge for 2 nights) offered a tasty but limited selection of food. The rooms we stayed in were clean and spacious but could to with refurbishing.

Borneo eco tours were brilliant. Right from the start, answering questions, the booking process, and the tour was just magical.
We added turtle island onto the jungle lodge, and it was well worth it.
Never expected to see so many turtles.
In the jungle we saw the big Borneo 5 over the 3 days…and really close up.
All the staff were very knowledgeable. We went with our 8&9 year olds and the whole family loved the experience.

Such an amazing and memorable experience - we saw 4 of the big 5 and were not disappointed! The talks and guides were so knowledgeable - worth every penny spent!

After feeling slightly confused on how to book our visit to Sabah, I am so happy to have chosen Borneo Eco Tours. Everything was very well organised, the hotels were unbelievably beautiful (sukau rainforest Lodge in particular) and timings were kept to every step of the way. However, the best part was definitely our guide Jonathan. He was so kind and knowledgeable. He answered all of our kids questions (they had so many!) and his English was perfect. Thanks for making our visit so memorable and special!

Cannot speak highly enough of Borneo eco tours - one of the most special trips we have ever done! Organisation and logistics were all incredibly smooth and well done. Extremely responsive to our needs and requirements. And then the experience itself was incredible! Accommodation in the jungle was amazing, and the wildlife experiences (sanctuaries and river safaris) were phenomenal. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

Jason was a delightful and knowledgeable guide, who showed us around the kinabalu park and gave us very interesting insights on Bornean culture, traditions and nature. Highly recommended!

We had a truly amazing time! The guides did their best to find all the animals on our wish list, and everyone was friendly and kind. We would highly recommend Borneo Eco Tours.

We stayed 3 nights at Sukau Rainforest Lodge, a beautiful tranquil setting along the river with a rainforest boardwalk and pool. The food and customer service were outstanding. The local wildlife guides were very knowledgeable and you can be reassured your Tourism dollars help with ecology and environmental projects protecting the animals and rainforest with Borneo Eco Tours. The staff are all genuinely friendly, happy and helpful. Many have worked with the company a long time- a great sign of a great company culture. The access to wildlife is phenomenal. We were so fortunate the week were were there with the wildlife we saw, seeing the Borneo Big 5 and more. I never dreamt I would get so close to Orang-Utans and Pygmy Elephants in the wild. Take binoculars and get ready for sea legs (that feeling of being on a boat when on land- as you will be speed boating up and down the river to see wildlife at different times of day). The accommodation was very comfortable with aircon and fans and aesthetically pleasing interior design- you even get the loan of a traditional sarong to wear to dinner. I had wanted to do this trip for decades and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend this adventure. Loved all of it!
