Borneo Wildlife Tour 3 Days 2 Nights At Tanjung Bulat Jungle Camp Kinabatangan - Day 2: Early river watching and long stretches of quiet

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 100 reviews · from $270Our pick

Three days at a remote Kinabatangan jungle camp with boat safaris, night walks, local meals, and excellent chances to see orangutans.

“We had a great experience at the camp, staff is very friendly, helpful at any time and knows a lot about the rainforest, river and animals- we were impressed. One thing we would add is a packing list for non-experienced ones like us: long pants/sleeves, rain coat, hat, mosquito spray, binoculars, flash light.”

There was nothing on the island except aload of rubbish on the beach that doesn't get collected and the police. The ride along through mangroves was interesting, seeing the monkeys and of course the fireflies. Dinner afterward was good.”

Review of Sabah’s 3-day Kinabatangan River safari, with four wildlife cruises, jungle walks, meals, lodging, practical tips, and honest value advice.

“Absolutely brilliant, I can't praise this place high enough. The staff were really friendly, the guides knew there stuff and the best places. We had a deluxe room which was really nice and the food was tasty, much better than I expected tbh. Unfortunately we didn't get to see the Orangutans, it rained which hampered that, but we seem the elephants swimming, monkeys, crocs ect. Well worth the money and a trip to remember. Thank you very much.”

You have to pay for wifi? And anything extra is paid for, night walk or cruise, elephant cruise, tree planting is all money on top of price which we didn’t expect or budget for”
