Fantastic time with great staff! Amazing!”
We did the 3D/2N and had an absolutely wonderful time! Our guide Joe had great eyes and took extra time to show us all sorts of amazing wildlife! He was patient when taking us on the night and day jungle treks, and had a great sense of humor! The front desk and dining staff like Azlan were also very kind and friendly! I recommend bringing a long-sleeve with thick material for the jungle treks--the mosquitoes are thick and easily penetrated my merino wool shirt. Also, you will absolutely need to rent their boots, which were 11MYR. Be prepared to get bitten by a tiger leech if you go trekking. It's no big deal and the bit wound is small, but some are bothered by this idea and the anticoagulant that leeches use can worry some as you continue to bleed a bit after removing the leech. Either way, you'll love the river tours, which you can easily wear flip-flops, shorts, and a t-shirt on. The sunsets are amazing! We saw all types of wildlife!!! Awesome time!
Hi Coleman, Thank you for taking your time sharing your stay with us. Glad that you have a great stay with us :-)
Wonderful staff, all-inclusive trip”
We stayed in the dorms for 2 nights and took 3 guided jungle treks and 4 guided river cruises. All of the staff members were fabulous and welcoming, and we saw tons of wildlife including wild orangutans 3x on cruises, hornbills, massive crocodiles, and a slow loris at night. The food is great and the dorms are comfortable. Pickup and drop off were smooth. Highly recommended!

Peaceful place in the jungle”
A beautiful place right by kinabatagan river. A basic but clean doubleroom with fan, air-con, kettle, good bed and a big bathroom and a little padio with chairs. We went on river cruises morning and afternoon and a jungelwalk with guides Jonathan and Mohammed. They are good at spooting wildlife and know alot about the animlas and nature. Everyone that works there are really nice and welcoming. Food is also good and it's nice place to meet other travellers.

Adventure mit einer Übernachtung”
Alles hat super geklappt. Die Abholung vom Flughafen, die Weiterreise mit dem Bus und dann die Überfahrt über den Fluss zur Nature Lodge. Super Einweisung und es ging auch gleich los zur Rivertour 2 Stunden. Zurück gab es Abendessen und dann einen Night Walk. Früh am Morgen 6 Uhr eine weitere Rivertour. Frühstück und dann Abreise. Auch das hat alles super geklappt und wir würden direkt in unsere nächste Unterkunft gebracht. Ein tolles Erlebnis.
探险之旅”
我们报的是两日一夜的套餐，有晚上的夜行，早上也有晨行，看到了很多平时看不到的动物，长尾猴、不知名的漂亮鸟类，但是没有看到大象和鳄鱼，晚上夜行的时候没有看到蛇。。很平静
Hi JingYi, thank you for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback. We glad that you have a great stay with us. Referring to your feedback about no sighting of crocodiles and elephants - as the trip is in nature and Kinabatangan is a large area for wildlife roaming around, we cannot guarantee the sighting of some wildlife which including elephants. Our guides are always will try their best to spot as many as wildlife during each activity.
