I stayed in Sukau Greenview Lodge and did the 3d2n cruise activity with them. All I can say it’s fantastic. The rooms and the food was very good, all the people working there was so nice and the best part are the guides. They know a lot of things and are ready to tell to you in the moment you see a new animal, and in seeking animals they are just professionals. Our guide was Hakimi and he was very attentive to us in the routes and gave very very good explanations!!

Had a wonderful experience and such a highlight of the trip! Got to see all Borneo 5, most more than once, plus so many other creatures thanks to our amazing guides, Ivy and Zack. The itinerary was packed with activities and very well organized. Food was good, dorm was clean and environment felt comfortable as a solo female traveler. Pick up and transfers were on time and smooth. Highly recommend!
Sabrina
our 2D1N trip with the guided river cruise tour was excellent, we have a great group of people having the tour with, very skilled and easy going, nice tour guide,(Azizie) who explained very detailed about the animals out there, we saw a full herd of elephants enjoying themselves in the river, Hornbills, crocodiles and other birds and little snake during the night cruise. Our favourite was the early morning cruise, beautiful lights, good weather. the double (private) room is outstanding, we love that, i recommend it if you prefer comfort and private own space instead of sharing the same room with others- which im pretty sure a satisfying experience here at Greenview lodge, as well. Thank you for the staff as well for having us with good care. Highlight of our trip for sure.

The 3D2N Kota Kinabalu Borneo Overland Expedition Trip exceeded all my expectations. From the very beginning, I was impressed by the meticulous attention to detail and preparation from wrapping vehicle seats to providing thoughtful amenities like personal toiletries, wet wipes etc. Ron Wong, Roger and Gregory, along with the entire crew, displayed exceptional professionalism in planning and ensuring our comfort throughout the trip.
Despite challenges like the power outage on the first night, the team worked tirelessly in the wet weather to set up tents and prepare meals, showcasing their dedication. Special appreciation goes to Denny, whose boundless energy and impressive photography skills helped capture memorable moments for us.
I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this well-organized and unforgettable journey! It truly 5 star service and I strongly recommend Borneo Overland to anyone seeking exciting outdoor adventures.

Was camping at Bundu That, the views of Mount Kota Kinabalu and surrounding hills are magnificent. It was a lovely experience camping on top of a hill, dinning with friends under the stars and sleeping is the open. The beds are also comfortable, well- equipped with bedding, sleeping bags, pillows and lights. It was a really lovely camping experience. And every crew makes the whole experience special and memorable. Roger and Danny are very helpful crews. The rest are also warm and friendly too. Thank you crews.

I had a great time on the 3 day KK expedition with 8 others. We were split across 3 Land Cruiser 60 series 4x4s.
The Kundasang campsite was amazing, with a clear view of Mount Kinabalu to wake up to in the morning. Food was amazing, thanks to the work of the crew Frendsy, Mansah and Gregory.
Activities involved white water rafting, hiking and swimming in waterfalls. These were a great way to break up the driving and cool off.

This is a must-experience in KK. From the breath-taking sunset experience to the warm hospitality of the captain and his crew. This yacth sailing experience is definitely one for the books! This was my most memorable experience from my first visit to Malaysia and I can't wait to come back. Shout out to Joel the captain and Brendan-my new found brothers aboard. 🍻Thank you Mawali Aventure and Tours! Love from the 🇵🇭😎
