    G Adventures does a fabulous job of going to the jungle. Our guides were all so knowledgeable and engaged, and we saw some rare sights, such as pygmy elephants and orangutan mom and baby in the wild. Our 15 member group was pretty easy to travel with, not much drinking or whining either. This is the 4th or 5th G Tour we've been on, and we look forward to more.

    The tour is well organised by G Adventures. We had a great group of people on our trip - they really made the trip! We saw the wildlife we'd hoped to see, though I'd hoped they'd tell us more information about what we were seeing and about Borneo itself. The accommodation is basic for the most part, perhaps more so than people were expecting. My top tip? Take water shoes with you as the beach is very rocky when you're visting Walai Penyu Resort.

    If you are looking for a nature holiday, I would most defiantely recommend Borneo. Saw all the wildlife I had hoped for and more. Our CEO with G Adventures, Ricky, was fantastic. Helpful, kind, knowledgable and very calm. Always happy to help and answer any questions regarding the wildlife or history of Borneo. The group was also fantastic, full of laid back, like minded, wildlife lovers, from all over the world. Thank you!!

    Everything about this trip was exceptional. G adventures put together a very memorable experience. Our guide, Rrricky, has such a passion for Borneo, its people and wildlife. From the river cruises, night walks thru the jungle, village walks our experience was phenomenal. I will definitely travel with this company again.

    Really great tour, tour guide was brilliant. We stopped in a small village (we were the only tourists there) they had a real issue with dogs, large packs constantly fighting which was quite scary. It may be an idea for the owners to keep the away or get them neutered because some of us were quite scared and the local guy walking us around wasn’t worried, his dog was actually an instigator at times.
