This company, with extensive help from the very knowledgeable Sheyron, is definitely one to trust. With only 3 weeks until our vacation date, Sheyron helped us put together a most fantastical journey. They tell you up front what is and is not included and offer extra excursions you can purchase in advance.
I loved that everything, aside from getting there and returning home, was set up for us. All we had to do was show up. They placed us in beautiful resorts, and each resorts had large assortments of food, all our excursions were waiting for us to climb in and experience all the rainforest could offer. The staff at each one was very friendly and accommodating.
Use this company and you will be delighted daily!

Borneo Eco Tours set up a great tour for us in the rain forest. We saw pygmy elephants, crocodiles, orangutans, and lots of birds and monkeys. The staff at the lodge were extremely friendly and kind. The food at the lodge was excellent with both Malaysian and western food choices. Teddy, the chef, personally prepared some chicken soup and real ginger tea for my wife when she wasn't feeling well due to a flu. Our guides, Marty and Vincent, were also very good. Everything on the itinerary went exactly as planned. It was a very efficient and well organized tour. Farah who set up our tour helped with good advice and was very quick to respond to our question.

Thank you very much for this review.
Wonderful to know that you saw many wildlife during your trip. You guys are very lucky to have spotted the pygmy elephants too!
Chef Teddy sounds like he really took good care of you and your wife at the lodge. And so did Marty and Vincent your guides and Farah your tour consultant. We'll let them know the good word you've put in about them. It will surely make their day!

My husband a 2 sons took the 3 night 4 day trip to Sukau Rainforest Lodge to see the Orang Utangs, it was an amazing experience. We booked direct and the communication and process was very easy. They arranged pick up from the airport and all transportation which was seamless. We had a number of guides and captains all were very friendly and knowledgable. Once collected from the airport we visited the sepilok rehab centre and sun bears centre, then after lunch took a boat to the lodge. We stayed in a Villa which was fully equipped and very comfortable. The food was plentiful and of a good standard and the staff were very friendly and eager to make you holiday perfect. We saw so much wildlife on the various tours and watching wild Orang Utangs in the trees around the boardwalk was a an absolute highlight. I would not hesitate to return and would recommend the tour to anyone considering it

We have just returned from a fantastic time in Borneo, made all the more special by Borneo Eco Tours. We took a 4 day, 3 night wildlife safari trip with Borneo Eco Tours to Selingan Turtle Island and Sukau Rainforest Lodge, and it was a wonderful experience. Borneo Eco Tours take the hassle out of the trip and have some very knowledgable guides. It was fascinating to see the beautiful animals in such beautiful surroundings, and the food made it even more special. I would highly recommend Borneo as a whole, and in particular Borneo Eco Tours, to anyone looking for a memorable trip.
