Kinabatangan River,Sakau,Borneo,Malaysia

A absolutely fantastic couple of days spent doing river cruises up and down Kinabatangan River spotting as much wildlife as possible.

We were so lucky to be able to see all the Big Borneo 5; orangutans, proboscis monkeys, pygmy elephants, crocodiles, and rhinoceros hornbills.

No photos of the pygmy elephants unfortunately as it was a misty morning and I was too concerned with actually seeing them!

We were also surprised by the amount of kingfishers in the area, as well as an array of other birds I've never even heard of.

We got to do sunrise, sunset, and evening cruises to see as much as possible, and it was amazing to see the river at the different times.Read more
