Our favorite routes in Borneo to inspire your trip - or contact us to start from scratch

Borneo is indisputably all about wildlife and the great outdoors, but that doesn’t mean we all want to experience it the same way.

Some of us want to get as far away from civilization as humanly possible, sleeping in tribal longhouses on multi-day treks into the jungle. Others want to enjoy the magnificence of the rainforest from the comfort of a luxurious riverside lodge. We've covered the whole spectrum on our visits to Borneo, and we used our own journeys there to build these sample itineraries.

If you have different ideas, that’s perfect. These are just a few examples of what we can do – the rest depends on you. If you have mobility issues, tell us and we’ll plan an accessible trip. If you’re wild about wildlife beneath the waves, we’ll make your itinerary diving-focused. It’s all about making your ideas happen.

Our favorite places in Borneo

Slap-bang in the middle of maritime Southeast Asia, Borneo is the world’s third-biggest island, surpassed only by Greenland and New Guinea. Divided unevenly between three countries, nearly three-quarters of the south is Indonesian, a tiny sliver (about 1%) belongs to Brunei, and what remains is part of Malaysia – namely, the two northern states of Sabah and Sarawak.

Here's our guide to the best known, plus some lesser known favorites.
