Description
Holiday to Borneo this year and explore the wild side with our brand new 8 Day tour of Sarawak. Including return flights from Australia. This adventurous tour includes a visit to Sarawak Cultural Village where you will meet local ethnic tribes living in their traditional Long Houses, an exciting wildlife river cruise through the Santubong Peninsular in search for Irrawaddy dolphins, fireflies, crocodiles and proboscis monkeys.
You will explore the famous Bako National Park, with its rainforest, abundant wildlife, jungle streams, waterfalls, interesting plant life, secluded beaches and trekking trails, it makes for an excellent introduction to the rainforest of Borneo. Bako is Sarawak’s oldest national park, covering an area of 2,742 hectares at the tip of the Muara Tebas peninsula. It is one of the smallest national parks in Sarawak, yet one of the most interesting, as it contains almost every type of vegetation found in Borneo. Next you will visit at Semenggoh Nature Reserve; the biggest Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre in Sarawak. Back in 1975, it was established as a sanctuary for Orangutans who are injured, orphaned or being kept captive as illegal pets. Currently, the centre serves as a habitat for the Orangutans and also a place for visitors to learn about the endangered rare species. This wildlife centre has a thriving population of healthy adolescent and young adult semi-wild Orangutans.
The tour ends with a trip to the breathtaking Borneo Highlands. You will stay at the Borneo Highlands Resort, one of the most excitingly diverse, environmentally friendly resorts in Malaysia. Cocooned in a lush green jungle that is teeming with unique flora & fauna, it sits approximately 1,000 metres above sea level on the Penrissen Range, which is amongst the world’s oldest and second largest rainforests.
