Turtle Island Park

Reviewed By AR548739 - London, United Kingdom

We booked direct through crystal quest, it was easy, Fatima was fantastic and responded quickly everytime she was very helpful from begining to end. After a few emails back and forth it was booked and we didnt have to pay anything until the day. Her email is - [email protected] The trip was fantastic, the work they do on the island is brilliant, if it wasn't for them the eggs wouldnt stand a chance.

Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary

Reviewed By Daneli09

Arrived early, had a good meal in the onsite restaurant before going to the feeding platform. Saw dozens of proboscis monkeys and several troops of macaques within arms length on the boardwalk leading to the feeding platform. Travelling between the feeding platforms, we saw hornbills, silver eared monkeys, wild boar and a huge monitor lizard. Great day out.

Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre

Reviewed By 663heathera - Canberra, Australia

We went here as part of a tour and it was the highlight. From seeing the young orangutans in the nursery with their very attentive keepers to the feeding platforms where the wild orangutans come in, what an experience to see these marvelous animals. to see them climb and swing through the trees. A must do experience.

Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre

Reviewed By Cosmopolitan587907

We decided to go to the Bornean Sun Bear Center instead of seeing the Orangutans next door. This place does invaluable work for Sun Bears and we saw 3 bears out from the viewing platform and they were adorable. One of the helpers, Becca was very friendly and spoke to us for 20-30 minutes, answering our questions and talking to us about the bears. We even saw an orangutan pop in from next door briefly in the trees! Could not recommend this place enough!

Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre

Reviewed By F7652NOkevinr - Sydney, Australia

Have waited years to come here and I was not disappointed. The orangutans are just so amazing to watch as they play and eat in their playground. They are not locked in this area and are free to come and go as they like. We were mesmerised by their antics. They seem to roll and swing with such ease and rhythm. Out of a forward roll into a rope swing and up a tree in one motion. I wish I could’ve stayed there all day to soak up the entertainment. Love these guys.
