FAQ[Expand All]

What’s the weather like in Borneo?

Borneo enjoys a warm tropical climate all year round, with temperatures averaging between 27–32°C. Generally, the dry season runs from March to September, while the wet season lasts from October to February. However, these seasons are becoming less distinct, so you can often expect a mix of sunshine and short rain showers, usually sunny mornings followed by brief rain in the afternoon or evening. Light, breathable clothing and a rain jacket will keep you comfortable whatever the weather.

Do I need leech socks, and where can I buy them?

If you’ll be trekking in the rainforest, especially after rain, leech socks are definitely handy. You can bring your own or pick them up at outdoor shops in Kota Kinabalu or Sandakan. Some lodges including Sukau Rainforest Lodge (SRL), Utan Rainforest Lodge (URL), and Borneo Rainforest Lodge (BRL) also have them available for guests. They may not be stylish, but they work perfectly! Tip: Tuck your pants into your leech socks for extra protection and peace of mind during your jungle walks.

What’s the difference between Borneo Rainforest Lodge (BRL) and Utan Rainforest Lodge (URL)?

BRL is a luxury eco-lodge in the heart of Danum Valley, a dream for those wanting high comfort in an ancient rainforest. URL, on the other hand, offers a more exclusive, cosy and off-the-beaten-track adventure at Sungai Kapur Virgin Jungle Reserve, where the wilderness feels completely untouched.

When is the best season for birdwatching in Borneo?

Birdwatching is rewarding all year, but April to October is extra special thanks to breeding and fruiting seasons. Migratory species also pass through around September to November, which is a bonus for keen birders!

What should I wear for trekking, river cruises, and city walks?

Keep it light and comfortable! For trekking, quick-dry long pants, breathable tops, sturdy shoes, and leech socks are best. For river cruises, casual wear with sandals or trainers is perfect. In the city, just go with comfortable clothes and walking shoes. A rain jacket or umbrella always comes in handy.

Which flights should I book to reach Borneo Rainforest Lodge (BRL)?

For BRL, fly early from Kota Kinabalu to Lahad Datu. If early flights aren’t available, no worries. Simply stay overnight in Lahad Datu the night before your tour, and you’ll be all set for a smooth start.

Is malaria a concern when travelling to Borneo?

Malaria risk in the main tourist areas of Sabah and Sarawak is very low. While rare cases may occur in very remote villages or deep forest areas, most travellers never encounter it. You can enjoy your holiday with peace of mind.

Do I need to take malaria pills for my trip?

We recommend checking with your doctor before you travel. Some guests prefer to take malaria pills for extra reassurance, but honestly, the best protection is simple: apply mosquito repellent and wear the right attire such as long sleeves and light trousers, and you’ll be well covered.
