Note

Effective 1 April 2026, Borneo Rainforest Lodge will amend its standard Danum Valley tours. The first day will now be spent island hopping and snorkelling on the coast near Lahad Datu, not at Danum Valley itself.  In the lodge’s ‘Coastal and Rainforest Escape’ tour programme guests will only arrive in Danum Valley between 6 and 7 pm.   As most of our clients prefer to maximise their time at Danum Valley, we are not offering the ‘Coastal and Rainforest Escape’’ tour you may see elsewhere.  Instead, guests booking our Danum Valley tours will be picked up at Lahad Datu airport and proceed straight to Danum Valley on Day 1.
