Rugged Borneo Itinerary

• Day 1: Arrival in Kota Kinabalu with a stroll to Signal Hill in order to take in a Borneo sunset on your first night there.

• Day 2: After breakfast a drive to the Kinabalu national Park proceeding to the foothills of Mount Kinabalu and picking up a choice of two separate trails within this a world heritage park containing an abundance of wild flora, a draw for any botany enthusiast.

• Days 3: After breakfast journey across to the Sepilok Nature Resort to a pristine rainforest resplendent with a treetop canopy that will be explored also. Visit Kipungit waterfalls where nearby you'll be able to enjoy the ultimate in hot sulphur pool pampering before going onto the Sepilok Nature Resort to spend the night.

• Day 4: A trip to Selingan Island is tackled after breakfast where you may be witness to the turtles laying their eggs, you are not interfering with these marvellous creatures and will always be under supervision by an island ranger. Snorkelling and general relaxation is in order spending the night at an island chalet.

• Day 5: You leave Selingan island for Sandakan eventually making a visit to the Sepilok Urang Utan Rehibilitaion Centre where in an open area you can feed and "interact" in a positive way with these animals who were only too willing to tolerate Hollywood actors back in the day! You then journey to Sukau to check into the Kinabatangan Riverside Lodge staying overnight.

• Day 6: You're woken up to the sounds (and smells?) of the local wildlife, taking a trip to nearby oxbow lake to observe the local wildlife, after lunch the rest of the day is free. Overnight at the Kinabatangan Riverside Lodge.

• Day 7: After breakfast cruise the river back to Sandakan where at the jetty you can visit the local stilt houses erected by the local tribes people. Then a transfer to the airport to fly back to Kota Kinabalu where an international flight takes you back to the UK.
