We did a 4 day, 3 night tour including turtle island and Sukau rainforest lodge. The various guides and drivers were all very friendly, helpful and always on time. We were lucky enough to see turtles, wild orangutans, Pygmy elephants, monkeys and bird life. We met some lovely people on the tour but never felt over crowded. A tip is... More

The tour we booked was billed as a 7 day wildlife tour (Tour Code BB14), the first 3 days you don’t see any animals at all – this is very misleading. We were so looking forward to this trip and hadn't had any problems with the booking process however it wasnt as advertised. Selingan (Turtle Island) was also a real... More

Despite the last minute cancellation of an air flight (not uncommon in this part of the world) the company handled the... More
