Memorable parts? I can't name only one!! If I really had to choose, I'd say the Borneo rainforest lodge in Danam Valley. Stunning location, amazingly helpful and knowledgeable staff and beautifully maintained lodges. Could not fault it. Tips? Even in the dry season, leech socks are necessary for Tabin and Danum Valley. Buy buy them there, not online. MUCH cheaper! This is a BUSY schedule involving very early mornings most days, as that's when you're most likely to see wildlife.... (more)Liz Carr

There were many memorable moments. Too few to fully list out! One destination was the Gomantong Birdnest Caves. The main cave tests all your senses. Certainly a location for the next Indiana Jones film, not for flip-flop wearing tourists! (more)Jonathan Reed-Lethbridge

Memorable parts? Elephants crossing the river just ahead of us. Tips? More accurate pre-departure information needed on the correct clothing and footwear for work on the project. We had to buy everything on arrival at the project as the pre-departure information was quite inadequate. Local benefits? YES Overall rating? 10/10. This was a phenomenal experience, not least due to the professionalism, experience and commitment of the APE project staff on the ground. We... (more)Vandna Kalia
