What Our Adventurers Think:
Me and a friend used Adventure Alternative Borneo and they did an awesome job. Nick organized a great itinerary for us going to a remote longhouse outside Kuching and visiting the Mulu national park to visit some caves and jungle tours. Nick made it a very easy (non stressful) process and was very helpful in answering all the questions we had. They do a great job at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend using them if you visit Borneo.
