SDK 5: Orangutan, Sun Bear & 1N Kinabatangan River (L/D/B)

per person

This full-packed 1 Day 1 Night (SDK 5) tour package includes three (3) destinations:

  1. Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre
  2. Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre
  3. Kinabatangan River (1 night)

Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre

The Sepilok Orang Utan Sanctuary was set up to rehabilitate orphaned and/or injured baby orangutans, aiming to have them returned back into the wild. Here, you will have the opportunity to watch the orangutans up close in their natural habitat.

Food brings people together and it certainly brings orangutans together too! We’ll get you here right before feeding time, and prepare to be amazed by these cheeky little creatures!

We love our orangutans, and we hope you do too!

Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre

This interesting trip will be followed by a visit to the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre, where you will get to watch this very unique species of bears, called the Sun Bear. Sun bears are the smallest of the bear species and can be found in tropical forests in Southeast Asia.

Populations of Sun Bears are rapidly diminishing due to serious threats from habitat loss and commercial hunting. Increasing protection and guaranteeing survivals of Sun Bears in Borneo is one of the main missions behind the conservation centre.

Go and meet the bears, and watch them hunt for their favourite thing in the world: honey!

This really is a unique opportunity to watch the Bornean Sun Bear, up close.

Kinabatangan River

The Kinabatangan River (Malay: Sungai Kinabatangan; pronounced: Soong-ngy Keen-nah-but-tungan) is the second longest river in Malaysia, with a length of 560 kilometers.
