I stayed at Benarat Lodge (simple but complete with basic facilities (with hot shower, towels, shampoo &amp; soap, air-con room, there’s a mini restaurant too) yet beautiful place, surrounded with nature, mountains, near the river &amp; quiet) &amp; I was surprised &amp; amazed by the hospitality &amp; warm welcome from Mr. Anil and his team, they provided transportation from and to Mulu Airport &amp; other destinations, 3 meals with scrumptious meals, very detailed briefing from Mr. Anil in regards of my itinerary or plans &amp; he also occasionally will check on me if I’m ok since I’m on solo trip. Mr.Anil &amp; his team also very prompt if I have any queries or help throughout my stay &amp; the trip. Mr. Lukars was my tour guide &amp; he’s also very informative &amp; being proactively shared with me a lot of very interesting facts during my tour to different caves in Mulu National Park, the Penan village, etc. He even personally prepared meals for me &amp; other team members during our stay at Camp 5 &amp; even being patience &amp; supportive in guiding me during my climb to Mulu Pinnacles since I fear of height 😅. He even proactively in helping me to take photos and videos for my memories throughout the trip. He’s awesome. The boat riding was the most enjoyable experience that I ever had, especially when I had the whole boat to myself 😆with my tour guide, embracing the nature &amp; the cool breeze. I was really amazed by the handicrafts by the Penan tribe that I was torn between so many beautiful &amp; unique handicrafts when I shopped for souvenirs (please support their business 🥹, it’s really beautiful). I’m really thankful as I was able to view the Bat Exodus (by waiting patiently almost 2 hours plus) although the weather was not very favourable, guess it’s a good luck. Another fun part was to swim in the cool, refreshing &amp; clean big river near Camp 5 (A MUST). Of course not to forget the climb to Mulu Pinnacles, it’s more challenging than Mount Kinabalu yet worth the climb (better trained yourself before the climb). Personally me myself was a local from Sarawak &amp; have been working in Singapore for many years &amp; actually being to Mulu was my first time &amp; I also have been wanted to come here for the Mulu Pinnacles &amp; I came across Seek Sophie for this package &amp; hence booked it as a solo retreat trip. It was really beyond my expectations &amp; I really had my best time here, not just from the hospitality by the people that welcoming me but also the experiences that I had, the opportunities to witness the beauty of the Mother Nature that have been well preserved &amp; the unique culture &amp; life of the people here. Throughout the trip, it brought me back to my childhood days or days before I moved to Singapore where I used to stay at my grandparents’ kampung (they’re of Sarawak Bidayuh tribe), living the life of kampung, spending time with my grandparents, learning about the cultures of my grandparents’ tribe, following them to their vegetation plantation or orchards on the mountains, where walking through the forests, climbing the mountains, swimming in the cool, refreshing clean river were something that familiar &amp; close to my heart &amp; it were my favourite adventures &amp; this is where I find healing, especially after being in the the busy city for quite some time. As a Sarawakian myself, I want to thank Seek Sophie for supporting this small local business in this way as well as for introducing my home country to the world❤️. Thank you for making my first solo adventure trip fun, meaningful &amp; memorable✨. Definitely will come again next time😌

Khair, my tour guide was amazing, I highly recommend him and the services of Tropical Adventure Tours and Travel.

He was so passionate about the local wildlife and was great at pointing out creatures and cave symbols to me, sharing niche local knowledge which made my experience so special.

He was always punctual, highly knowledgeable and approachable, kind, highly passionate about his job as an eco-tourism guide and he always respected me and made me feel very safe as a female solo traveller.

I visited Mulu and it was my first ever time solo travelling. At first, I was concerned that I was allocated a male tour guide as a female alone on the tour where we would be without reception or phone battery at some points, yet Khair became a very good friend and a highly respectful guide who always steered clear of ever over stepping my boundaries. He cooked amazing food for me and put my care and safety first.

From the start till the end, the customer service has been fantastic. Anil was very welcoming and friendly during the pick up and drop off. Our guide for the whole trip, Filipi was very knowledgable and experienced. He took good care of us and kept our spirits high with his dad jokes 😅. And the food was delicious! Loved the variety of veggies served for our meals. 😋 would highly recommend booking with them.

Highly recommended. One of the best tour group I have ever joined. The whole experience is seamless and fun. Food is great and the caves are amazing. Tour guide is engaging and professional. The climb to the Mulu Pinnacles is especially rewarding and the view at the top is nothing but spectacular.
 They even arranged a room for me to get a shower on the last day after the trek before I catch my flight.

Operations Manager Anil is very responsive and helpful. And so are their service staff. Special thanks to our guide Phillipi who is very knowledgeable and passionate about the environment. We had a wonderful experience trekking with him 🩷

Our trip to Mulu with Tropical Adventure Tours and Travel was fantastic. Everything exceeded expectations; from the caves to the Pinnacles climb. Our guide, Phillipi, was excellent. We enjoyed the wonderful jungle atmosphere, on the hikes and at Camp 5. The Mulu Marriott hotel is also very much recommended.
