★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 24 reviews · 3 days · from $316

Spend three days and two nights along Sabah’s Kinabatangan River with guides such as Harry and Ryan. Four river cruises, a weather-dependent jungle walk, full listed meals, and small groups of up to 13 give you repeated chances to spot orangutans, elephants, monkeys, hornbills, crocodiles, and more.

“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.”
