Package holiday to Borneo

Borneo is the third largest island in the world and one of the last great wilderness areas on our planet. The Malaysian part (Sabah and Sarawak) offers a unique mix of ancient rainforest, exotic wildlife, and cultural diversity that attracts nature lovers from all over the world.

The rainforest of Borneo is 130 million years old — older than the Amazon — and is home to an astonishing biodiversity. Orangutans swing through the treetops, proboscis monkeys display their quirky noses, pygmy elephants roam the jungle, and the Rafflesia, the largest flower in the world, blooms for only a few days each year. Borneo is one of the few places where you can observe wild orangutans in their natural habitat.

The Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre in Sabah is the most famous destination. Here, orphaned orangutans are raised and prepared for their release into the wild. The feeding platforms allow encounters with the gentle great apes up close — an experience that deeply touches the heart.

Mount Kinabalu, at 4,095 meters, is the highest mountain in Southeast Asia and is both a challenge and a reward. The 2-day ascent takes you through various vegetation zones from tropical rainforest to cloud forest to the barren summit zone. The sunrise from the summit, over a sea of clouds with the silhouette of the surrounding islands, is a life-changing experience.

The coast of Sabah offers world-class diving. Sipadan, a small island off the east coast, is regularly listed as one of the top 5 dive sites in the world. Turtles, barracuda tornadoes, reef sharks, and an underwater cliff that drops 600 meters deep make every dive an adventure. The Danum Valley Conservation Area offers authentic jungle experiences in one of the last untouched lowland rainforests in the world.

Borneo particularly impresses with stunning beaches, breathtaking nature. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
