Borneo tours Malaysia - gentle orangutans

Borneo tours - Sabah and Sarawak

Why be forced to travel according to other peoples preferences when you can create Borneo tours based on your own personal preferences. By picking your favourite Borneo modules below, you can create your ideal Malaysia itinerary. Naturally you can also combine them with our Malaysia adventure tours. There is one difference between modules in these two areas; during the Borneo modules you'll travel in small, international groups of a maximum of 12 people. This allows us to keep our prices reasonable for these modules. As far as transport is concerned, the most interesting areas in Borneo are somewhat spread out and difficult to reach by road. That is why we suggest booking cheap Malaysia Airlines or Air Asia flights in between the Borneo tours in Malaysia. We can make reservations for you on these flights prior to your departure. Let us help you create your ideal Broneo adventure -we're only a phone call or email away.

Our Malaysia and Borneo tours are possible any time of year, even during the rainy season. Prices mentioned below are valid until April 30, 2010 and do not include international airfare. Other prices may apply during Christmas, New Year's and during the Malaysian peak travel season.
