Borneo - Accommodation

World Primate Safaris offers the ultimate Borneo wildlife holidays maximising your chances of seeing as much local wildlife as possible whether that be tracking orangutans through the Kinabatangan forests, viewing pygmy elephants from dug out canoes or admiring the pendulous noses of the bizarre looking proboscis monkeys!

Accommodation in Borneo cannot be compared to the opulent array of choices one finds in East African destinations such as Kenya or Tanzania. Borneo offers comfortable and homely lodges located in true rainforest wilderness. As an up and coming destination standards do vary from the luxurious Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort or Lankayan Island to the more basic Bilit Adventure Lodge or Miki's Survival Camp - it is true to say however that World Primate Safaris will always attempt to put our clients in the best place at the best time of year in order to maximise your wildlife viewing opportunities.
