Just a short email to say how much we enjoyed our trip to the Danum Valley, Kinabatangan and Sepilok which you arranged for us. We had a wonderful time with great experiences both on land and on the river, were extremely well looked after and had many superb wildlife sightings, including two orang utan Mothers in the wild with their young; one of them was making up her nest for the night and that was an extraordinary experience. All arrangements worked like clockwork,  and I'd like to thank you for the efficiency and positive, helpful and friendly attitude with which we were met throughout our stay. Borneo is a beautiful country and I am sure I will be back one day and I will certainly recommend it, and your organisation, to friends who enjoy wild life holidays.
 
Thanks again.
 
Best wishes

Client Feedback:

Sorry for taking so long to write to you.  We are back at work in Papua New Guinea now and things are crazy here - as usual.

Our time in Danum Valley was great.  The food and the service at Borneo Rainforest Lodge were particularly outstanding.  It rained heavily every afternoon we were there, so we didn't get to do as much bird-watching as we would have liked.  But we made the best of every morning and saw some really great birds.  We really enjoyed ourselves.

Overall, our trip to Sabah was fantastic.  I think it was the best holiday that I have ever had.  We really didn't have any complaints about anything, the whole time we were traveling.

Many thanks again to you for making our planning and our holiday work out so well.  We will certainly recommend you to anybody we know who is planning a holiday in Malaysia.  And we are thinking that we might go back there again within the next couple of years, so we might be in touch again.  If we are ever in KL for any reason, we will certainly look for you.

Thanks again and Best Wishes

From Dr Robert Mckay (20 days tour for Kinabatangan river, Maliau Basin, Danum Valley and Tabin Wildlife reserve)
