1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Seeing orangutans in Sepilok and seeing a wide variety of birds and animals on the river Kinabatangan.

It's very hot and humid - pack suitable clothes.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes, particularly in Borneo.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

I really enjoyed it. The accommodation in the Borneo rain forest was basic and that's to be expected. The accommodation in Langkawi was also basic and that was disappointing.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

The river trips in Borneo and spotting many animals in their natural environment. The food tour in KL - be hungry for this!

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Take mosquito spray, binoculars and a torch.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Local people benefitted from employment. The operator encourage refillable water bottles. The rehabilitation centres are supported by visitors.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

A holiday in 2 parts, wildlife and cities. Our Malaysian guides were excellent and tour leaders were paramount in making our holiday enjoyable.

review 1 Mar 2018

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Seeing the orang-utans, especially in wild when taking the morning river cruise. Second best was the foodie tour of Kual Lumpur.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Relax on the trip. Every thing promised is delivered, but some times you have to just accept there will be delays.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes. Local guides, hotels, restaurants and traders all gained from my spend. This supported conservationism by entrance fees, and donations to Orangutans.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Really enjoyable. Well organised. Excellent guides from Exodus, plus they selected really good local tours for us.
