As an introduction to Sabah’s rich ecosystems, the trip begins with visits to two important animal conservation projects: Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre and the Sun Bear Conservation Centre. These insightful visits are complemented by a canopy walk at the Rainforest Discovery Centre, providing a first look at the raw beauty of Malaysia’s natural flora and fauna.

Then it’s on to the Kinabatangan River and Tabin Wildlife Reserve for a closer look. Through a series of boat trips and nature walks, guests will have the opportunity to spot endemic wildlife- such as elephants, gibbons and proboscis monkeys- in their native habitat. There is also an incredible array of bird species in the area, with more than 200 species in the Tabin area alone.
