After a short rest, embark on a 4x4 safari drive into Danum Valley Field Centre (DVFC). The route itself offers prime opportunities to spot wildlife such as macaques, hornbills, and possibly pygmy elephants.
Spend the afternoon exploring DVFC trails, guided by an expert naturalist familiar with the diverse flora and fauna of the rainforest.
Return to INFAPRO before sundown.
After dinner, join a night safari drive through surrounding forest roads for a chance to spot nocturnal species like civets, leopard cats, and flying squirrels (weather permitting).
Rise early for a morning safari drive into DVFC, golden hour for wildlife sightings. Watch out for orangutans, red leaf monkeys, and crested firebacks.
Have breakfast picnic-style at the DVFC Dining Hall before continuing with guided morning walks along canopy and river trails.
Return to INFAPRO for lunch and rest.
In the afternoon, enjoy a second safari drive into DVFC, with your guide highlighting animal calls, track marks, and interesting plant species.
As the day cools, venture on a guided night walk through the forest to safely observe tree frogs, vipers, and nocturnal birds.
Return to INFAPRO for a leisurely night drive and dinner before retreating to your room for the night.
Begin with another early morning drive to DVFC for high-activity wildlife spotting.
After breakfast, guests may opt for either short trails or a longer guided hike, depending on fitness levels. Potential sightings include hornbills in flight, wild boar, and endemic pitcher plants.
Return to INFAPRO for lunch and a short break.
Head out again for the final afternoon safari and wrap up your exploration with sunset views over the lush canopy.
As the sun sets, venture out on another night walk for your last few opportunities to spot nocturnal wildlife.
Return to INFAPRO for your final night safari drive, capturing any last nocturnal sightings and soaking in the forest ambience one last time before dinner.
Wake up by 04:30 Hrs for a pre-dawn 4x4 drive to the Bukit Atur Viewpoint, one of Danum Valley’s best locations for watching the sunrise over the forest canopy.
Watch the first light bathe the misty valley while listening to the calls of gibbons and hornbills.
Return to INFAPRO for a relaxed breakfast and some free time before check out.
