Everything was well organized. Pick up from Sandakan was very easy and efficient, with a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable guide.
The resort was good value for money. Food was good and the spotters on the boat tours were excellent. We saw everything we hope to see and more!

Claire
I really enjoyed staying here! Felt at one with nature whilst having the luxury of my accommodation. The food was great and the staff were all really friendly. I did the a tour to dereamkot and kinabatangan river which I’d highly recommend. Got to see a lot of animals: orangutans, Pygmy elephant, proboscis monkeys, langurs, lots of birds etc,
Felicia
Great for relaxing and zoning out away from the city. PS remember to check when the fruit season is if you want to see orangutans
Frederick
We had a wonderful time and our highlights were the trek up to the waterfall with Abbie, our guide, who was amazing. Very kind, knowledgeable and full of interesting stories about Sarawaks history, culture and people.
Our Longhouse home stay family were so welcoming and we were invited to a birthday party within the community. Everyone was so kind and generous, it was such an interesting experience in itself. A trip definitely worth doing, especially if you can get Abbie as your guide!

Booked: 2D1N Bidayuh Longhouse Trip
The trip was run efficiently, the driver professional and our guide Din was knowledgeable and keen that we enjoyed the time at Bako, learning about the wildlife and nature.
Bako is a wonderful nature reserve and I only wished I had arranged to stay the night for a nighttime jungle trek too.
