Wonderful adventure!

Such a fun experience! It was just my family and the guide, so we were able to go at our own pace. Our guide timed things so we could see feedings for the Orangatans, proboscis monkeys and the unbearable. We saw so much animal action. And our guide Jackie was awesome. Really friendly, really knowledgeable, and so good at spotting horned bills, snakes etc.

Memorable Trip

Well planned trip, picked up by Mr Amran and our lovely female driver Ann. Comfortable air conditioned bus. Arrived at Sepilok in time for viewing the nursery and the 9.30 feeding. We then went to Labuk Bay Proboscis Sanctuary and were able to see the monkeys without a crowd of people. We had a lovely lunch and rest at Sepilock Jungle Resort and then returned to Sepilok for the Sun Bears and afternoon feeding. Less crowds in the afternoon but less activity by the animals. The tour was pricey but great only 4 of us on the mini bus. Amran very informative about the primates. Memorable holiday and saw it all in one day. Took some wonderful photos

Fabulous experience with a great guide

Our guide Faisal was excellent-we had booked a group tour but we actually ended up on a private tour which was great -we could spend as much or as little time at each stop. We saw orang-utans, proboscis monkeys, other monkey types, giant squirrels, sunbears and lots of birds and learned a lot. Lunch was great at one of the resorts I. The jungle too.

Highlight of our trip !

Mr Hadi our guide and our driver were both amazing. Really friendly and nice. Helped tailored our tour according to our schedule as we had a flight back to catch- and managed to fit all activities into the one day. Mr Hadi was very experienced to know what to look and listen for whilst in the rainforest and we were lucky to be able to see all the animals listed in the tour and a few more! After this experience we would definitely like to come back and view more of the tropical wildlife here in Borneo. Has been the highlight of our trip. Thank you Mr Hadi !
