Visit Agnes Keith House and the Dusan community
Sepilok: See conservation in action at Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Center, where orphaned orangutans and those once kept as pets are cared for as they learn to return to the wild.

Your visit directly supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 15: Life on Land.
Sepilok: Meet the world’s smallest bear at the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Center, guided by founder and CEO Dr Wong. Learn how his team rescues and cares for sun bears threatened by habitat loss and the illegal pet trade, and see how each bear is given space to climb, forage and behave more naturally.
Sepilok: Explore the Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve from suspension bridges and a 147-meter canopy walkway, with the rainforest rising around you. Look across the treetops, watch for rare birds and see the scale of Borneo’s lowland forest from above, where every sound, branch and movement draws you further into this protected habitat.
Kinabatangan River: Glide along the Kinabatangan River with your guide helping you scan the banks, branches and shallows for Borneo’s Big Five: orangutan, proboscis monkey, pygmy elephant, rhinoceros hornbill and crocodile. From the water, you’ll see why this river is one of Sabah’s great wildlife corridors, linking rainforest, wetlands and mangrove habitats.
Kinabatangan River: See the Kinabatangan after dark, when the river feels completely different. With your guide, scan the banks and branches for civets, flying foxes, palm civets and owls, using the boat’s quiet pace to pick up small movements, eye shine and the sounds that carry across the water after sunset.
Sandakan: Step inside Agnes Keith House, the restored hilltop home of the American writer who wrote about life in North Borneo before and after the Second World War. Through its rooms, photographs and gardens, you’ll see Sandakan’s past through one family’s experience of this former British North Borneo capital.
Sandakan: Sit down to lunch at the English Tea House, set beside Agnes Keith House on a hill above Sandakan.

Ara Dinawan Island: Enjoy time away from the city on a small stretch of Sabah’s coast known for clear shallows and coral close to shore. Take the pace you want here, from quiet beach time to optional activities on the water, with space to enjoy the island without feeling rushed.
Ara Dinawan Island: Enjoy a private beach barbecue lunch on Ara Dinawan Island, with grilled seafood, chicken, fresh salads, tropical fruit and cold drinks served close to the water. After time on the beach or in the sea, sit down with your fellow travelers and enjoy what’s been cooked over the grill.
Kuching: Explore Kuching with your Travel Director, walking through a city shaped by river trade, Malay, Chinese and colonial influences. See the cat statue and cat fountain, visit a Chinese temple, follow the river promenade and view the mosque before sitting down to Sarawak laksa, a local favorite made with noodles, coconut, spices and fresh herbs.
Bako National Park: Explore Sarawak’s oldest national park and one of the best places to see Borneo’s habitats packed into a small area. Your guide will help you understand how rainforest, mangroves, cliffs and beaches support different species, from long-nosed proboscis monkeys to plants that survive in poor coastal soil.
Semenggoh: See rehabilitated orangutans at Semenggoh Wildlife Conservation Center, where those once orphaned or rescued are released into the surrounding forest. You’ll watch for them moving through the trees and feeding nearby, while learning how the center gives orangutans space to live more freely in their natural environment.
Visit a Bidayuh longhouse and meet a community whose traditions are tied to shared living, food and family life. Sit down to a home-cooked lunch, see a community dance and explore the longhouse, learning how its spaces bring generations together under one roof.
Kinabatangan River: Reach Kinabatangan Wetlands Resort by boat, passing fishing villages before entering the Lower Kinabatangan-Segama Wetlands, Sabah’s first RAMSAR site and Malaysia’s largest. Set among ancient mangrove trees, the timber-built resort places you deep in a protected wetland, reached on foot through groves of nipah palms.
Sandakan: Follow Sandakan’s streets with your Travel Director and taste the flavors locals know well. Try roti kosong, a plain flatbread often served with curry, kueh, colorful bite-sized cakes or sweets and teh tarik, Malaysia’s pulled milk tea known for its frothy top.
Try playing Sarawakian instruments with members of the Bidayuh community guiding you. Hear how the rhythms support local dance and celebration, then have a go yourself as your hosts show you how the instruments are held, played and used in community life.
Mount Kinabalu: Meet the Dusun community in Kiau Village, where coffee growing supports local families in the foothills of Mount Kinabalu.
