4D3N kinabatangan and deramakot tour
We had an incredible trip!
We started at the Kinabatangan River, where we saw the Big 5 of Borneo and so much more in just three tours. The tour guides did their best to find everything possible.
In Deramakot, we were completely alone, which is not normal, but of course made everything even more special.
Our tour guide Bobby and driver Sam were absolutely incredible people.
We were very lucky again and saw an incredible amount, especially at night, thanks to Bobby's exceptionally good eyesight.
Food and drinks were always provided and the Malaysian cuisine was extremely good.
Don't expect too much from the lodge in the jungle (Deramakot): single beds, lots of insects (absolutely normal in the jungle) and everything is a bit old.
We can only recommend it to everyone, and if you are lucky enough to have the dynamic duo Bobby and Sam as your guides, you will have one of the best tours ever.

We had a great time in Greenview Lodge. Our trip was just amazing. The staff was helpful and pleasant. Higly recommend!

We loved our day trip to Bako national park. It was during monsoon season so a lot of trails were closed for maintenance but we were still able to see so much wildlife, even proboscis monkeys! Lucky us. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and fun. Would do it again!

We went on a Beluran Safari for 1 night. It was well organised. The night drive was excellent with great sigtings of moon rat, long tail porcupine, lesser mouse deer and slow loris. The food was very good. Accomodation was comfortable, toilet was ok. Though we did not participate in the river cruise, we heard that it was good from other participants.

Great off the beaten-track experience. Amazing spot for night drives and river cruises. It is the only accommodation in a giant park teeming with wildlife: a truly exclusive experience. The accommodation is located in a low-impact logging area, so it is a great example of how sustainable land-use can ensure wildlife remains in areas used by humans, which is greatly demonstrated in infographics and posters showing research conducted in the park.

I recently returned from a trip to Borneo and partook on 1Stop's tour. I was with them for 5d/4n. The exeperience was phenomenal.
The group is heavily devoted to raising awareness of the rainforest inhabitants -both plants and animals. We spent a bit of time watching some videos on some of the highlight species (both plants and animals). The guides were exceptional at finding things and sharing knowledge on the ecology.
True and proper eco-tourism at its finest. I'm very excited to see how they will continue to help shape and protect Borneo's rainforests.

Great trip, knowledgeable guides. I love the conservation focus, and you can see the great work they are doing on the ground. I think people can easily go to Borneo and end up not learning anything at all, but with 1StopBorneo, I felt I learnt so much about the forests and the wildlife. Absolutely recommend.

Visited the lodge for accommodation, a tour package, and a bamboo raft workshop. I never cease to admire this magical place every time I return. It’s amazing to witness both the beauty of nature and the kindness of the people who built this wonderful place and community from scratch. I feel grateful that the hosts and local community are eager to share the wisdom passed down by their ancestors and the beauty of their homeland. Plus, they always make sure you never feel hungry.
