"Our bible study group of senior citizens chose Sabah for a 4 Days relaxing and exploration trip with Amazing Borneo. It was a wonderful experience! I particularly enjoyed the evening and live band entertainment onboard North Borneo Cruise with the friendly crew, the overnight stay up in Kinabalu Park with the premium lodges, and exploring Kundasang with our friends. Special thanks to Emily, the Sales Director, for planning the entire trip carefully for us, and for Joel our tour guide who patiently took great care of all of us even though one of our travel members needed wheelchair assistance! The team's excellent service definitely deserves 10 stars! Will definitely be back again. Thank You Amazing Borneo!"

Kim Eng Ter

"It's our second trip with Amazing Borneo. Last year we went to KK and the mountain and now is Sankadan and Lankayan Island Resort. During our booking, Anthony Wong recommended Lankayan resort which indeed is a paradise worth to visit. The water chalet we stayed is clean and spacious, overlooking the clear blue ocean from our balcony! It's an unforgettable experience! Following days in Sandakan we tried the local seafood dinner which is also fresh and reasonable price. We visited the Gomentong cave (lots of cockroaches and pungent smell, better masked on) and Labuk Bay to see the Proboscis monkeys eating and playing on the feeding platform! Overall was a good experience with Amazing Borneo."

Mabel Ong

"Amazing Borneo exceeded expectations! Our sales person (Anthony Wong) was extremely helpful, patient and responsive in providing tailored recommendations that fit our needs perfectly. Despite booking late in the season, Anthony helped to secure mountain climbing spots for us last minute and adjusted the rest of our itinerary proactively to make sure we are able to fit climbing into our trip (which was our main objective). We had many email and WhatsApp exchanges and I could always count on Anthony to provide timely and thoughtful response. The tour experience was excellent as well, from Sarawak to KK, we had a 9 day tour with a domestic flight, 5 hotels, many ground transfers and guides in between. Everything worked out smoothly with great communication throughout to ensure we were taken care of. We couldn't be happier with the overall experience and very glad that we worked with Amazing Borneo. Thank you for the great trip!"

"Amazing Borneo truly lives up to its name! From the moment we engaged their services, we were impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail. Anthony, the Sales Manager, was incredibly helpful, ensuring that all our bookings were seamless and hassle-free. And let's talk about our tour guide, Mr. Yung—what an absolute gem! His knowledge, enthusiasm, and warm personality made our experience unforgettable. Whether it was navigating the lush rainforests or discovering hidden gems, Mr. Yung went above and beyond. But it's not just the logistics that impressed us. Amazing Borneo also understands the importance of cultural immersion. They seamlessly integrated local experiences into our itinerary, allowing us to connect with the vibrant culture of Borneo. Whether it was sampling traditional dishes, learning about indigenous traditions, or simply chatting with locals, we felt enriched and inspired. In summary, if you're looking for a travel partner that combines efficiency, warmth, and cultural depth, look no further than Amazing Borneo. Anthony and Mr. Yung, thank you for creating memories that will last a lifetime!"

"We had an amazing 3D2N Mulu Show Caves Tour. The booking was done through Anthony Wong who was extremely patient and accommodating with our various changes. Anthony was very responsive both on emails and WhatsApp throughout our exchange even after office hours. It was a breeze to work with him and I highly appreciate his professionalism. The visit to various caves was awesome, especially the bat exodus which was something we could only see from a documentary show. I will also highly recommend an upgrade to Mulu Marriott Resort and Spa. The room was very comfortable and nice. It's a place where you can rest well and get a spa after the tour"

"Thank you so much William for taking such great care of us during the 6 days stay. We are impressed & appreciative of your patience & very friendly nature. Your knowledge of wildlife flora and fauna are impeccable! I was further impressed when you went the extra mile to search for the species of bird in Singapore which my husband shared with you. Loved the various tips & concepts related to plants which you shared as well. Didn't know there is a plant species used for contraception! Thank you also for sharing more on the various tours & trips from Amazing Borneo and we definitely hope to come back for more! Lastly wishing you & your family the very best in your future endeavours! All the best, Kind regards, Khairulddin, Resma, Afzal, Afraz Singapore, 8-13 Dec."
