We had an amazing experience with Borneo Eco Tours. The lodge was beautiful, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the food throughout the trip was excellent.

A special mention goes to our guide, Vincent, who was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife and rainforest. The boat trips with him were a real highlight – we saw so much wildlife, and his expertise helped us spot and learn about many different species. We were even lucky enough to see orangutans in the trees right outside our room, which was an unforgettable experience.

Over the course of the trip, we managed to see four of the famous Borneo Big 5. The only one we missed was the elephant, but Vincent made every effort to try and find them for us – it just wasn’t meant to be this time!

We also visited the Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre in Sepilok at the start of the trip, which was fantastic and well worth seeing. At the end of our stay, Vincent guided us around the Rainforest Discovery Centre, where his knowledge once again really enhanced the experience. We were fortunate enough to spot gibbons there, which was a wonderful way to finish the trip.

Overall, this was an unforgettable wildlife adventure, made even better by Vincent’s expertise and enthusiasm. We would highly recommend Borneo Eco Tours to anyone wanting to experience the incredible wildlife and rainforest of Borneo.

Our experience with Borneo Eco Tours was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, every detail was handled with care, professionalism, and a genuine passion for showcasing the natural wonders of Sabah. Each stop on our itinerary offered something unique, and together they created a journey we will never forget.

Sepilok Nature Lodge was the perfect introduction to Borneo’s wildlife. Nestled in lush greenery and just minutes from the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre and Sun Bear Conservation Centre, the lodge felt like a peaceful sanctuary. The rooms were comfortable, the food delicious, and the setting absolutely magical. Waking up to the sounds of the rainforest was an experience in itself.

From there, we traveled to Lankayan Dive Resort, a true paradise for ocean lovers. The island is breathtaking—crystal‑clear water, powdery white sand, and vibrant marine life everywhere you look. Whether diving, snorkeling, or simply relaxing on the deck, every moment felt like a dream. The resort staff were warm and attentive, and the conservation-focused ethos made the stay even more meaningful.

Our final stop, Sukau Rainforest Lodge, was the highlight of the trip. Located along the Kinabatangan River, the lodge blends comfort with deep immersion in nature. The river cruises were spectacular—we spotted proboscis monkeys, hornbills, crocodiles, and even wild orangutans. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about conservation. The lodge itself was beautifully designed, eco‑friendly, and wonderfully serene.

Throughout the entire journey, Borneo Eco Tours impressed us with their seamless organization, exceptional guides, and strong commitment to sustainability. Every activity felt purposeful, educational, and respectful of the environment and local communities.

This was truly a once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventure, and we cannot recommend Borneo Eco Tours highly enough. If you’re looking for an authentic, responsible, and awe‑inspiring way to experience Borneo, this is the team to travel with.

From the moment we were picked up at Kota Kinabalu Airport until our drop-off at Sandakan Airport, Borneo Eco Tours delivered an exceptional experience that exceeded all our expectations.

Our journey began with Captain Joe, who greeted us right on time and transported us to a well-located, clean, and comfortable hotel. The following day we met our guide, Eddie, and together they made our time in Kota Kinabalu unforgettable. From visiting the Mari Mari Cultural Village to exploring Kinabalu Park, everything ran seamlessly. What stood out most was their genuine passion for sharing their country, culture, and hidden gems beyond the usual tourist trail. Eddie and Joe went above and beyond to ensure my husband, who has some mobility challenges, was comfortable and able to fully enjoy every aspect of the tour.

At the Sabah Tea Plantation, we changed guides and drivers and were introduced to Kazree and Captain Jassie. Once again, we were welcomed with incredible warmth, hospitality, and professionalism. Kazree’s knowledge of Sabah’s history, wildlife, and culture was remarkable. Highlights included our tour of Sandakan, the Sandakan Memorial Park, and visits to the Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre and Sun Bear Conservation Centre. Every stop was enriched by Kazree’s enthusiasm and expertise.

The absolute highlight of our adventure was spending 5 days and 4 nights at Sukau Rainforest Lodge on the Kinabatangan River. Quite simply, it was beyond anything we had imagined. The lodge itself was beautiful, the staff were outstanding, and the hospitality was genuine and heartfelt. We stayed in a villa, which was wonderful, although the deluxe rooms also looked excellent.

One of the most magical aspects of the lodge was the resident family of orangutans that regularly visited the trees around the property, offering guests a unique wildlife experience right from the lodge grounds. The river safaris were truly spectacular. We were fortunate enough to see Borneo’s famous “Big Five” and so much more. Every cruise revealed something new, from pygmy elephants and orangutans to proboscis monkeys, crocodiles, hornbills, and countless other species. Early morning and late afternoon cruises along the Kinabatangan River were simply sublime and quickly became our favourite part of each day.

Kazree once again went above and beyond, making it easy for my husband to get on and off the boats and ensuring we never missed an opportunity to enjoy the incredible wildlife around us. We were so glad we chose to spend extra time at Sukau Rainforest Lodge—in fact, we could happily have stayed much longer.

A special thank you also goes to Maxwell, who helped us organise the trip from Australia. His advice, suggestions, and responsiveness made planning easy and stress-free. Nothing was ever too much trouble.

Borneo Eco Tours provided us with an unforgettable adventure filled with incredible wildlife, fascinating culture, breathtaking landscapes, and wonderful people. Every guide, driver, lodge staff member, and team member we encountered was professional, caring, and passionate about showcasing the very best of Sabah.

We cannot recommend Borneo Eco Tours highly enough and would not hesitate to travel with them again. Thank you for creating memories that will last a lifetime.

This company did the leg work when we went to Sukau Rainforest Lodge. Picked us up from one hotel. Guided us around the orangutan centre in Sepilok and then got us and our cases to the lodge. One there it was them that guided us on the boat trips and other events and then got us and our luggage to the airport. Very knowledgeable and very professional.
