Sandakan Airport / Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre / Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre / Rainforest Discovery Centre / Hotel Sandakan
Arrive at Sandakan Airport, where your guide will meet you for the short drive to Sepilok to begin your wildlife experience.
The morning starts at the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre. You will visit during the 10:00 Hrs feeding session, when orangutans appear from the surrounding forest and gather near the feeding platform. Before heading out along the boardwalk, you’ll watch a short video at the Nature Education Centre to better understand how orphaned and rescued orangutans are cared for and prepared for release.
Just a few minutes away is the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre. Here, you’ll learn about the smallest bear species in the world and the challenges they face in the wild. From the viewing areas, observe the sun bears moving around their forest enclosures.
Lunch will be served at a local restaurant. In the afternoon, continue to the Rainforest Discovery Centre, where you can take a walk along the canopy walkway and explore the surrounding gardens and forest trails at a relaxed pace.
In the evening, enjoy dinner in Sandakan before checking in to Hotel Sandakan for your overnight stay.
