What Our Guests Say

Excellent Birding!

We recently arranged a 3D2N birdwatching trip to Mt Kinabalu through Borneo Eco-tours. All the arrangements they made were very good, as was the accommodation and everything ran on time. We had Adrian Chin as our guide and he was excellent, with a good knowledge of the flora and fauna, as well as pleasant companion. As we had been before, we had quite specific birding requests and Adrian had a good eye for the birds and worked hard to get us the birds we wanted to see. We also felt safe with Gavin, our driver, who took great care and was where he was needed! We would certainly recommend them.

Highly Recommended!

I run my own birding and nature based travel company in Latin America so have quite a bit of experience in the field. We hired Borneo Ecotours for their 16 day / 15 night birding package, and we were impressed to say the least. They have a great tour with excellent lodging, vehicles, drivers, and guides. Perfect logistics. Though we did plenty of birding, we’re very interested in all of the natural world as well as the culture. Their guides were super knowledgeable about everything as well as being patient, professional, and fun. Highly recommended.

Fabulous Birding Tour!

We asked Borneo Eco Tours to put together a birding itinerary for us for 16 days. Not only did all of our arrangements work seamlessly, but the accommodations and guides were fabulous!! The guides really were exceptional! We also asked for recommendations for a diving resort and a place to relax at the end of our trip and they set up the reservations for us and set up the transfers and all we had to do was focus on having a wonderful time rather than logistics.
