TAILOR-MADE TRAVEL

ITINERARY INSPIRATION

Our destination specialists will prepare the itinerary of a lifetime.

LUXURY HOLIDAYS & TOURS BORNEO

LAND OF ENCHANTING FORESTS

Stray off the beaten path and discover a land of enchanting forests, remote jungle lodges, untouched beaches, authentic experiences and some of the most exotic and rare species on earth.

For our specialists, the ultimate Borneo holiday experience is to trek through the dense jungle of the centuries-old, virgin rainforest of the Danum Valley…to finally come face to face with an orangutan.

Watching, in close proximity, as Borneo’s ‘old men of the forest’ play, doze and eat in their natural habitat is simply magical. But it’s not just the orangutans that make a holiday here special.

Ask us to create you a luxury, tailor-made itinerary and you could find yourself walking through tropical jungle and floating along meandering rivers. You’ll be surrounded by flying squirrels, proboscis monkeys, pigmy elephants and a kaleidoscopic array of dazzling birds.

You will wander through jaw-dropping caves, the largest of them big enough to house St Paul’s Cathedral. You’ll swim in tropical pools and dine beside spectacular waterfalls. You’ll take longboat trips along winding tributaries and be welcomed into traditional longhouses by the local Iban people. And with a string of paradise islands just a stone’s throw away, you’ll be lounging on immaculate beaches in no time.

Borneo is the world’s third largest island, and one of the most unspoiled regions on Earth, with a variety of habitats; from pristine coastline, to misty jungles and majestic mountains. If you’ve been inspired to experience it for yourself, speak to one of our Borneo experts.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. The Ultimate Travel Company gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “The Ultimate Travel Company”!
