A phase of your Borneo adventure will be conducted on the banks of the mighty Kinabatangan River in eastern Sabah.  The river runs from the heart of Borneo and is steeped in history since it used to be the only way of getting into the deep interior jungle.  Communities along the banks have developed mini eco tourism projects in order to create alternative streams of income.  You will participate in an environmental project, helping to reforest areas where the jungle has become sparse.  This is hard work in the heat and humidity of a Borneo jungle but your reward is the opportunity to see wildlife at close quarters from a boat.  The banks of the river are teeming with life including crocodiles, wild boar, occasional elephants, assorted birdlife and at least 8 different species of ape and monkeys which of course includes the Borneo Orang-utan.  Several of these great apes nest near your work site so you may have the chance to get up close and personal with one.  If you fail to see one at the work site then your day trip to Sepilok Orang-utan Sanctuary will certainly guarantee you see a number of them up close.  During your stay on the Kinabatangan you will spend several nights jungle camping amongst the Borneo wildlife and insects as well as several nights in a traditional family home.
