New wildlife safari & luxury Borneo lodge
An incredible new rainforest and wildlife experience in Borneo awaits. Head deep into the heart of one of Borneo’s most pristine and undisturbed rainforest areas, the wilderness wonderland of Danum Valley. The luxe Borneo Rainforest Lodge is your home for a few days. Canopy walks, night safaris, natural jacuzzi pools, ancient rainforests, wild orang-utans and incredible wildlife awaits. Retreat at the end of the day to your luxury chalet. Nestled in the heart of the rainforest and overlooking the flowing waters of the Danum River, soak up the spectacle from your outdoor jacuzzi. An exotic playground in the lap of luxury.
The Danum Valley Conservation Area is one of the most undisturbed and pristine rainforest areas in Borneo. With no human settlements in existence before it was declared a conservation area, the result is a wilderness wonderland of 43,800 hectares of pristine and undisturbed tropical flora and fauna, and home to a staggering variety of bird, mammal, reptile and plant species including wild orang-utans, enigmatic gibbons, colourful hornbills and a host of other rare and endemic species.
A short flight from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah and then a 2 hour drive passing by rainforest rich valleys and mountain waterfalls, your private transfer soon has you in the remote wilds of Borneo. Nestled in the heart of centuries old virgin rainforest and with only the crystal clear waters of the Danum River and a kaleidoscope of wildlife for company, Borneo Rainforest Lodge is your extraordinary home for a few days. From the comfort of your chalet, savour the tranquility and lose yourself to one of Borneo’s most incredible rainforest experiences.
Now spectacular Danum Valley awaits. Begin your exploration of this incredible area on foot and by canopy walk - stretching for 300 meters, experience the untouched rainforests and wildlife of this area. After relaxing back at the lodge, it is time for a dinner of traditional Malay cuisine followed by an evening spotting for nocturnal life in an open-top vehicle. Wake to the beautiful sounds of gibbons calling in the rainforest and enjoy breakfast in the heart of this pristine rainforest area. A morning jungle trek is the order of the day. Head deep into the heart of the rainforest searching for orang-utans, colourful hornbills and solitary gibbons, then cool off with a refreshing swim in a natural jacuzzi pool. Nature lovers - rejoice.
