Booked 3D/2N Kinabatangan River. 1N in Abai Lodge and 1N in Riverside Lodge.
As they told me the lodges are fully booked and they only have one room left I had to hurry up with booking and payment.
I transfered USD 620,- (actually cost me 650,-) to their account as they have a 5% surcharge on credit card payment.....
After one week (!) they told me they cannot guarantee my booking as they have no money...........
One day later they found the money and had a strange excuse......

So far so good. But when our group of 10Pax arrived in Abai Lodge we could not believe: The Lodge was under rennovation, and construction the lobby and terrace were closed due to painting works which were done with the worst chemicals and the smell of paint hurt ones nose and was terrible toxic......... see photos.
Beside that there was terrible noise on both days all the time as carpenters were constructing a new building, working with circular saw and hammering........... we felt like beeing on a big building site. NO JUNGLE FEELING AT ALL!
We were the only guests at the Lodge and more than 10 rooms empty....?

When we complained they completly ignored that and did not even answer.........although our tourguide felt very sorry about the situation.

For great Kinabatangan tours I would recommend not book through SI Tours (Lodges belong to them) or ABC-Tours.
Book yourself a homestay and you dont have to go with 10 others through jungle, you expirience much more and pay much less.
Or try Borneoecotours and great Sukau Rainforest Lodge.

I booked my tour on-line through ABC tours and I have to say I was impressed with the service. From the understanding of our requirements for the trip to organising it and the manner in which it was done.

Our guide was Rusli (Bruce Lee) he was on time, kind and very professional. He shared my passion for wildlife and we had plenty to talk about on route to the port where we got on a boat to Selingan Island to see the Turtles. The tour itself was fantastic Rusli was very knowledgeable about the turtles and the isalnd and it was very well organised. Allowing us time to relax as well and take in the beautiful surroundings. By far one of the most beautiful places I have ever laid my eyes on and I would love to return one day.

After our tour was completed and we head back to the main port we stopped off at Sepilok orang-utan sanctuary. Again Russli was superb pointing out wildlife we no doubt would have missed if he hadn't of been there. I loved our time at the sanctuary and highly recommend it and the wonderful service provided by All Borneo Connection Tours! 5 Star Service!
