Sabbaticals & Experiential Holidays in Borneo
Borneo is the 3rd biggest island in the world and boasts endless treasures to entice adventurous travellers. It’s home to some of the world’s oldest rainforests and an incredible diversity of wildlife, including the endemic Proboscis Monkey, Bornean pygmy elephant and, of course, orangutans. The touristic part of Borneo is split between the Indonesian state of Kalimantan and the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak. Feeling like the land before time, Kalimantan is the wilder cousin of Sabah and Sarawak, with boat travel a necessity.
For world-class dive resorts and easier travel logistics, visit Malaysian Borneo. Whichever you choose, prepare for an unforgettable wildlife experience in the depths of its ancient rainforests. Enjoy boat trips along rivers and wildlife watching on the banks, hike through untamed jungle, and visit wildlife sanctuaries for up-close encounters with weird and wonderful creatures. The beaches aren’t a bad place to finish your trip either, with turquoise waters and white sand offering welcome respite from the jungle heat.
