Sally made the Bako tour an experience of a lifetime. - Sally was an excellent tour guide during our Bako tour. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. She pointed out all the monkeys, snake, and wildlife on the tour. I was the oldest person on the tour. She offered for a boat to return me to the Bako center on the return. The boat could not come so the other 6 people went ahead. Sally stayed with me and helped me over the difficult parts of the trek. I made it thanks to Sally’s help and kindness.
She made the tour very special for me and the others on the tour. She is an asset to your company.

Bako National Park - Excellent tour of the national park. Jan and Edwin picked us up at our hotel very as arranged and drove us to the park. They were very informative throughout the day and we saw some great wildlife. The trail was a bit tougher than we expected but the guides ensured we went at the right pace with plenty of rest stops along the way. They then took us for lunch which was amazing. I cannot thank them enough for looking after us throughout the day and would highly recommended this tour.

The best way to discover the wildlife of the park - We had an excellent experience on the guided tour. We went in a very small group, just me and my partner, which made everything even more special. Our guide, Elvin, was always concerned that we could observe most of the wildlife in the park, especially the elusive narigud monkeys, and thanks to him we managed to do so. The activity was very complete and enriching. To make the most of the visit, I recommend always doing it with a guide: otherwise it is easy to miss many animals and important details.

Nature at its best - I love hiking through forests – and this one was by far the most beautiful hike I’ve ever done. Although exhausting because of the heat, but the nature is just fantastic and the air so wonderfully clean. A place I will miss.

A great day trip to Bako National Park - This was a great trip. Our guide Don, was not only very knowledgeable about the wildlife, but on the journey there he explained about the culture and ethnic groups in Sarawak along with a brief history. Once at the park he made a great effort to find wildlife for us and we were rewarded with various animal sightings including several Proboscis monkeys.

Beautiful piece of jungle close to the city - Hiking tours are quite tough but certainly doable despite the fact that we had to deal with a heavy tropical shower. Please note: Good lunch but only after the walking tours so bring your own food.

Good but expensive - The park itself is very nice and the guide was also great. However, the supply here is completely overpriced. Better look for something locally and pay only a third.

Island Tour was Not very enjoyable - The river cruising part was enjoyable, and the scenic beauty of the beach was truly amazing. However, the trip felt a bit rushed, especially the trekking, which was very tiring and somewhat unpredictable. The animal sightseeing was not as fun or interesting as expected. Lunch could also have been better if it was arranged on the island itself

Do not go during the rainy season! - This trip was one of those I will never forget. We left Kuching in the morning. The weather wasn't good but still fine. Unfortunately, the conditions became worse and worse while we were walking through the jungle. A real rainstorm hit the park. We got completely wet. My camera got damaged and getting it fixed is not convenient as I would spend a lot of money. Therefore, I have to buy a new one. We were supposed to see the proboscis monkeys. This was the main reason why we chose this day trip. We were able to spot just one. But it was very dark and rainy. So, it wasn't easy to see it among the branches. Also, the trip on the boat was kinda scary. I didn't feel very safe due to the big waves. I was afraid the boat to flip over. We passed by the rock formations you can see here on Tripadvisor, but we couldn't take any picture as we had to hold the boat tightly. Our priority was our safety. However, taking pictures would not have been possible because the boat was bumping the waves all the time and pictures would have been blurred. In a word...a nightmare. I learnt the hard way, the reason why it is called rainforest. With all of the above being told, please do not go to Bako National Park during the rainy season (from October to March/April). Apparently, summer is the best season.
