Borneo Adventure by HPN , 7 Nov 2023
Holiday Rating:

Borneo trip exceeds expectations

Visiting Borneo and particularly seeing orangutans in the wild was on our ‘bucket list’ . We knew there was no guarantees but we had our first wild orangutan sighting on day 1 - a mother and baby- and it just got better.

Perfect from start to finish

We had the best week in Oman. It was our first visit and the first time we’d done an organised private tour, so we weren’t entirely sure what to expect (although all documentation and communication was very clear and informative), but it was superb, exactly what we wanted.

An experience of a lifetime

With the help of our excellent driver / guide we were able to see beautiful parts of Sri Lanka and experience different aspects of life with locals in a very unique way. The accommodation we stayed at were all different but all excellent as were the staff.
