Guest Reviews

We have just finished the 3 day 2 nights tour.
Everything was fantastic
Jonathan our guide was amazing. If your visiting ask for him in advanced. He was great with all organisation, knowledge of the animals and all aspects of the trip.
The lodge is 5 star. We got lucky with 2 wild orangutan one with baby visit by the pool.
On the trip we saw everything expect the elephants.
Eagles, hornbills, proboscis monkey, crocs, kingfishers, orangutang and loads more.
Food was great, the lodge is great, staff are great.

We had great experiences in viewing wildlife, seeing Orang Utans, Pygmy Elephants, Rhinoceros Hornbills and Proboscis Monkeys in the wild. We saw 3 of these on the initial boat transfers from Sandakan. We stopped for 3 nights at the Sukau Lodge which was absolutely superb, with many excursions on the river finding wildlife. Our guide was knowledgable and very personable. We transferred to the Kawag Rainforest Lodge, where we spent 2 nights in the Rainforest with another expert guide dedicated to us, leading numerous excursions by foot. The food at the lodge was exceptional.

Organizing, contacting, pickup/drop off efficient, wonderful vibes from all employees. Fufilled my wish to see orang utan, proboscis, & more in their world. Comfortable yet eco friendly lodging. Food service for all meals and snacks, welcoming and tasty. Talks re eco tourism & orang utan info-packed yet well presented despite English not being the presenters' first language. Boardwalk tour, river cruises, Gomantong caves, rehab centres, Memorial park, Rainforest Discovery Centre, Mt Kinabalu Botanical Garden--lots to absorb with stops enroute when birds or critters of interest happen by. Kudos to Sheyron, Vincent, Rosi, Syafil, Fernando, Jamil, to drivers, presenters, reception and servers. Importance of saving our earth for the future was underlined.

We had a great time. Everything good organised, pickup & drop-off, tours.
The accomodation is very good, day schedule not to busy.
We did see the borneo big 5, be it with only young and only 1 .
Loved the pool for a quick refresh.

Had an amazing 3D2N tour and stay with Borneo Eco Tours! They are experienced and always looking to accommodate what you want to get out of your experience in the jungle of Borneo. The wildlife sighting was spectacular. We had wildlife orangutans just on top of our cabin! The lodge is beautiful and comfortable. And the meals and tours make, everything combined just make it a unique experience!

We had booked the 3 days / 2 nights in the Sukau Rainforest Lodge. We were picked up at Sandakan airport by our amazing tour guide Jumaidi. We visited the Sepilok Orang Utan Center and the Sun Bear Conservation Center, both were very interesting and the animals are not held in captivity there. Afterwards we took a boat ride to the lodge, on the way we already saw our first wild Orang Utan. The lodge is a really nice place in the middle of the rainforest. We had three boat safaris included in our package. In addition we did two night safaris which are led by some of the locals. We saw much wildlife including Orang Utans, Macaques, proboscis monkeys, crocodiles, hornbills and all kinds of other birds. There are also many free on-site activities available including a rainforest board walk. All meals were provided, the food was fine. To summarize, the experience was really amazing, mostly because of our excellent tour guide Jumaidi. He was really kind, funny and well skilled in spotting wildlife and also in doing their sounds, some animals even replied him. He was also very respectful towards the animals and never disturbed them. Generally it was really impressive how the guides spotted the wildlife from distance and during the night. I can warmly recommend the Sukau Lodge for everybody who is interested in eco-friendly tourism. The prices are more than fair. I can also recommend to choose the transfer to the lodge by boat as it is a great experience and you can already see a lot of wildlife (as I wrote earlier we saw an Orang Utan during the transfer to the lodge which is very rare to see).

My husband and I loved our 5 day/4 night Borneo adventure at Sukau rainforest lodge. It is beautifully situated to enjoy the jungle and partake of their river rainforest safaris. We spotted our first wild orangutan on the resort’s own boardwalk within our first few hours due to the diligence of the staff being always on the lookout for wildlife for their guests. Our naturalist Suhailie and guide Fernando had keen eyes and we were fortunate to see the ‘Borneo Big 5’ in our first 24 hrs. Truly a magical experience and with thanks to all the team at Borneo Ecotours in making this happen.

Borneo Eco Tours organised a 6-night trip consisting of 3 nights in each of Sukau Rainforest Lodge and Shangri-La Tanjung-Aru. It was the perfect combination of rainforest and beach side resort. From start to finish couldn’t fault any part of the trip. Prompt and courteous pick up and drop offs, quality of transfer vehicles and accommodation, knowledge of guides, everything exceeded expectations. Highly recommend.

Incredible experience. Amazing accommodation, food and service. Enjoyed every moment of our trip with Borneo Eco Tours,

Borneo Eco Tours made our trip to Malaysia. From beginning to end they were well organised and friendly. We stayed on Turtle island and at Sukau Rainforest lodge. Everyone we met went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. The guides were lovely and so knowledgable, plus the SRL was a real slice of luxury in the middle of the jungle! Rahman was our guide for duration of the trip - he was welcoming, friendly, knew so much about the area and the animals. We had so much fun with him and he really listened to us and cared about making our experience the best it could possibly be. I cannot thank Rahman enough, and everyone else at borneo eco tours for making our trip so special.To anyone thinking of going, I could not recommend this tour company more.
