Snorkeling Trip
Snorkeling Trip, Wildlife Trips, Sabah, Borneo – Customer Feedback, July 2008
I recently went on a Borneo Expedition with Seychelles International School, all organised by Borneo Dream. We spent our first day day on Borneo Dream’s boat snorkeling. It was the perfect day for relaxation after the endless hours of flying.
We were up early on the next day to fly to Sandakan. We first visited the Rainforest Discovery Centre – there were many species of butterfly that I had never seen before! That night we stayed at a Lodge on the Kinabatangan River which was only accessible by boat. We went on river safaris and saw lots of MONKEYS!!!

We then made our way to the Sepilok Orang Utan rehabilitation centre. It was the first time any of us had actually gotten so close to a monkey. Scott and Harry were fortunate enough to see a wild Orang Utan very close up when they went for a walk on their own. Lucky them!!! Dinner was sooo good! We dined at the Agnes Keith English Teahouse.
Next was white water rafting!!! Now that was a great experience! After battling the rapids, having Mrs Kennedy thrown overboard, getting stuck on a rock and “sounding like a child”, we reached the end of our journey. While we were eating we were shown the video of our rafting. Our table erupted with laughter and “aaah- this is so embarrassing”.

Our Borneo trip was nearing an end. Sniff Sniff. We spent our last day shopping and then it was time to go to the airport. Disappointed that it was time to leave, we boarded Air Asia for KL.
Thanks to Jo, Billy and Ron at Borneo Dream who organized it amazingly well, we did so much! Our Borneo Dream that began months ago was made a reality. This trip was a once in a lifetime experience and one that I will never forget. THANK YOU!!!
