Enjoy a 2D1N Kinabatangan River Safari at a scenic riverside lodge.
If you want to experience Kinabatangan without roughing it, this 2D1N experience is a great-value choice.This lodge is right on the riverbank, and offers easy access to wildlife cruises while giving you a comfortable place to return to after each outing. You’ll head out by boat with experienced local guides to look for proboscis monkeys, orangutans, hornbills and, if you’re lucky, pygmy elephants. Then you’re back to a proper bed, air-conditioned room and hearty meals — no camping, no basic jungle huts.This is ideal for travellers who want strong wildlife chances but still value comfort. The lodge is simple rather than luxurious, but well-run and welcoming, with double and twin rooms available. It’s especially good for couples, families or first-time Borneo visitors who want a smoother, more relaxed introduction to the rainforest.You can also add on visits to the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre and Sun Bear Conservation Centre if you’d like to combine river safaris with conservation stops.Want a longer stay?
