    The Mt kinabalu climb was amazing. Prior to that we did multiple trips over 7 days.The only disappointment was not seeing the turtle's laying eggs as the itinerary stated.

    A very beautiful region which still has to reach it's maximal touristic potential. The Sepilok Center, Turtle Island and Mount Kinabalu two very unique and amazing experiences. The nature still wild and untamed, beautiful Islands, white sand beaches ...all in all a good mix for exploring and enjoying.

    The itinerary did exactly as expected, showcased the highlights of Sabah. The additional activities exceeded expectations; tubing in Tambatuon village was fun for the range of ages amongst out group, on the night jungle walk in kinabatangan, we had the pleasure of strolling across an endangered tarsier. Our well-connected guide (Jerry) was actively involved in all activities and shared a wealth of knowledge, as a local. The connections Jerry has with the communities made us feel at home in Borneo. His professionalism and experience in mountain climbing made the Mt Kinabalu hike a personal highlight for me. A well-passed, humbling and spectacular adventure well worth taking.
