Borneo Tours
Discover the best of Borneo on our 17-day escorted tour
Borneo, the world’s third-largest island, is shared by Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei, and is a popular destination for those seeking adventure, wildlife and nature. Borneo is renowned for its ancient rainforests, vibrant rivers, towering mountains, and rich indigenous cultures, and boasts a tropical climate, vibrant cities and pristine beaches. One of Borneo’s greatest treasures is its extraordinary biodiversity. Home to some of the oldest rainforests on earth, Borneo is an ecological marvel with rainforests offering sanctuary to unique wildlife, including the endangered orangutan, pygmy elephants, and the elusive clouded leopard.
