Reviews

Beautiful rainforest, river trip.

Our guide was excellent, what he had for eyes I don’t know, we did not see any pigmy elephants but we did see lots of different types of monkeys, probiscus, silver, capuchins.
Also saw Hornbills, alligators, Python (in a tree branch) Orangutan in her nest with her baby, sandpipers, snake head bird, eagles, monitor lizard.

The trip was excellent.
Beautiful Rainforest.. almost untouched and worth it.

I booked with Asia Green Travel. No fuss and easy. I stayed in a mixed dorm with AC at Borneo Natural Sukau Biiit Resort. For RM371, it covered all meals, 4 river cruises, 2 night walks and 1 day jungle walk. Transfer to and from airport or Sandarkan town or anywhere inbetween.
I realised that the river cruise on day 1 and 2 go different places and it's good to sit with the same group so that you will explore the different routes.. This is unsaid so you need to be a little aware.
Would suggest bringing a small binoculars or rent one. As with the rubber boots.. it's all for rent. Bring a good mosquito repellent (Deets doesn't work fyi) for the jungle walks.. no kidding.. and a torch for the night walks. The weather is cool at sunrise so a light jacket or windbreaker is good to bring along.
Amazing and wonderfully experience

Good things: the river, the cruise, the walking safari. Rangers very good; a lot of animals including the elephant
Bad things: a lot of children, too small, the families must be all together in the same boats not disturbing the rest of the tourist or the animals. I can’t understand how parents take the 2 years old children to a morning cruise at 6 a.m.
One more bad thing: food in the lodge is very limited. If you are not coming the first you will be probably left with nothing.
We liked it very much

The drivers/guides didn't really explained much, what was a little bit sad. Still we enjoyed the tour very much with extra visits to the sun bears and crocodikes. (We had to pay a little extra for the entrances of these facilities ofcourse). And they also took us to a Chinese Temple and the water village in Sandakan. Nice two days.
Saw a lot of monkeys in the wild (incl. Orang-utangs), as well as pygmee elephants and some beautiful birds :)
A beautiful location but it rains alot!

It is a beautiful river area but the weather can be pretty bad. We were not able to do much on the river on the afternoon boat ride because of the heavy rain. We also heard that the morning ride was also fogged in and with low visability. I was hoping to see pygmy elephants but we were told they are no longer in the area. We did see a few monkeys on the river banks but monkeys are easy to find in many other places in the world so this was not worth the long journey to get there. Maybe your luck will be better. Good luck!
