Fantastic 5.0
The pickup from the hotel was on time. We ended up being the only ones in the join-in group. The guide provided information all along the driving. He helped us bypass all the q at the center and explained us what to do and what we would be seeing. We saw seven orangutans eating and planes. It was an amazing experience. Highly recommend

An unforgettable experience at Bako National Park in Malaysia. Our local guide, Mr. Hamdini, a former park ranger in the area and originally from a village within the reserve, was simply exceptional. He knew every corner of the jungle and could identify animals just by their sounds. During the tour, we spotted vipers, macaques, proboscis monkeys, flying lemurs, wild boars, and squirrels. The tour began with a boat ride to the park, and at the end, we sailed along the coast while they explained the geography and fauna of the area. We ended the day in his village, enjoying delicious local food at a typical bar. A dream day, 100% recommended for nature lovers. Just a heads up, it's very hot: be well prepared!

The arrangement for the whole trip is seamless. Company contacted us one day before the trip to confirm the the trip and briefed us on meeting time and place. Did not manage to see any dolphin but do spotted a crocodile. Saini the guide mentioned if we came at Jun period we would be able to spot migratory birds. The aun is blazing hot around 10:30am do bring some sunscreen and umbrella!The Lunch is good and tasty. There are four delicious dishes with a drink. The guide walked us thru the cultural village and explained the details in each of the houses belonging to each tribe.

The guide Saini is friendly and knowledgeable. The cultural trip allows us to understand the Sarawak culture better and deeper understanding of the tribe daily activities. This day trip combines the cultural village and orangutan observation which is better for travellers with limited number of days in Kuching. We are lucky to see 4 orangutans. Ruby the orangutan who didn’t appear for months came to the feeding platform. We also saw a young orangutan, Sem, who is old enough to venture out on her own away from her mother. It is advisable to bring portable fans and mosquito repellent as you may stand in hot sun for a couple of hours. There is a washroom at the orangutan observation area. You can choose not to take electric buggy ride and walk from entrance to observation area. Some parts are uphill which may be challenging. We opt for electric buggy ride as we have elderly and children with us. The orangutan shown in the picture is Ruby.

What a great day with OOO HAA tours. On time, comfortable transfer. Fabulous guide and boat captain. We saw the dolphins, a crocodile and a family of proboscis monkeys swinging in the trees, one with a baby! The guide and captain were careful to ensure our safety making sure we wore our life jackets and timing our crossing to the island when the swell was dropping. By the time we had finished lunch and seen the baby turtles snorkeling on the other side was perfect. Again guide and captain very helpful. The snorkelling equipment was top notch. All in all a fantastic day...A side note that the local authorities have the potential for amazing eco tourism here and for that to be successful they really need to deal with the refuse and rubbish on the beaches and shorelines...the authorities need to step in to have it removed on a regular basis to protect this fantastic area.

It was great for a rainforest gateway. Really cooling and good for a great retreat gateway. They accommodation at HQ park was great! Walking distance to Paku Waterpark and short distance journey to the clear water cave. I will definitely be going there again for cave adventures. Love it! The river water was clean as well.
