“The organisation and timing and food was efficient and well managed. our guide was wonderfully informative, maybe too much so! The meal was very generous and very tasty. As a mixed group from Ireland/US where agriculture is our main economy we could have done without going to the farm! - I didn’t read the detail properly. The photo stop and market was just long enough and a nice taste of malaysian Borneo Economy. The jungle tree top wall was great, again it was just perfect amount of time and the distance also just right, we all really enjoyed it. The springs were a welcome relief afterwards, and the butterfly sanctuary…”
