Customer Reviews
- NIcholas· December 26th, 2024Nice tour with good group and team leaders. Hotels all reasonably good & comfortable, well paced, its quite busy until the last 3 days but I enjoy this to try and see as much as you can whilst on holiday. Andrew, tour leader, was really good, as were the local guides. I would have preferred more time in Singapore, its really one day and one night which is too short for me. I liked Malaysia but I felt it doesn't quite offer the same diversity as other SE Asian destinations or places like Sri Lanka, but still worth the trip. I was the only working person on this trip, at first this did worry me, but the group was great fun and i had some great memories with them. Still, if you're younger (I'm 53), Explore's database seems to be retirees. Overall I enjoyed this tour and would recommendShow more
- Michelle· November 22nd, 2023Sepilok seeing orangutan’s up close and we were also lucky enough to see them on trips from Bilit and Tabinin the wild. We also saw proboscis monkeys, macaques and a gibbon in the wild as well as a range of birds and other mammals. The Sun Bear rescue centre was a good addition. The palm oil production was also very interesting given it is a useful product if done right and the need for balance with nature. It was great to finish at Tabin withShow moreReview collected by Explore!
