REEF AND RAINFOREST'S BARE NECESSITIES TOUR OF BORNEO

Tailor Made Sample Itinerary No.4

A tour which takes in a variety of settings, from the impressive Mount Kinabalu and its surrounding UNESCO World Heritage Site dipterocarp forests, carnivorous plants, and parasitic rafflesia blooms, to the world-renowned Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre and rainforest-lined Kinabatangan River with primates aplenty - wild orang-utans, proboscis monkeys - as well as hornbills, Borneo pygmy elephants and much more. End up by winding down on beautiful Lankayan Island with the chance to see marine turtles nesting and hatchlings dash for the sea, as well as swim off glorious beaches, snorkel and scuba dive before returning to Kota Kinabalu and home. So much variety for so little cost.

BARE NECESSITIES TOURS:

This tour is part of our new collection of Bare Necessities sample tailor-made tours where you decide what to do when, while staying in a great selection of accommodation and benefiting from our usual high standards of service.

Why Are These Tours Different?
Our new range of Bare Necessities itineraries provide you with all the essentials for a successful holiday on the ground at an agreeably low price. They will appeal to those happy to find their own international flights (perhaps using accumulated Air Miles or favourite websites), visit some local sites independently, search out local restaurants, and decide what excursions to do and when to do them.

What is Included in the Price?
Meet and greet, transfers, domestic flights, accommodation, most breakfasts and a number of lunches and dinners (as stated), complimentary on-site activities (eg, use of swimming pool, snorkel gear, canoes, nature trails), inclusive tours which are part of a lodge’s general package (eg, game drives in the Pantanal), and a variable number of chargeable tours and excursions which are either too hard or unreliable to organise on the spot, or which we consider essential to enjoy fully the destination.

What is Not Included in the Price?
International flights (we shall be delighted, of course, to quote for flights if you like), optional tours and excursions (if there are any you wish to include, just let us know), and some breakfasts, lunches and dinners (normally where there are alternative dining options).
