Borneo - Orangutans and wildlife safari
Details
Borneo trip - Part 3
River safari and Orangutans
Join us on wildlife river safari in Borneo on Kinabatangan River + visit Orangutans rehabilitation centre and Sun Bear Conservation Centre in Sepilok.
The Kinabatangan River in Borneo is a prime location for spotting wild orangutans, often seen during river cruises along with proboscis monkeys, pygmy elephants, and hornbills, offering a natural jungle experience though sightings require patience and expert guides for these elusive, tree-dwelling primates. The river's rich biodiversity makes it a significant habitat, especially within the lush, protected rainforest corridors of Sabah, Malaysia.
