Most Inspirational Moment
our time in Mulu. The caves, the rain forest, the ambiance of the village we stayed in and the locals.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Rony was a great leader, he went out of his way to make sure we got the best experience he could offer. he was so happy that we got to see the big 5 of Borneo. No request was too much to ask for and he went out of his way to make sure that questions and requests were all taken care of.
Advice for Potential Travellers
this is a great trip to take if you are of average fitness or not that young, yet be warned, to be prepared for high temperatures and high humidity, in the 90% range. We have done many trips into 3rd world countries and I must say that this trip was the safest feeling one that I've ever been on.
Suggestions
The trip was great, but if I had to say anything negative about it, it would be that we spent the whole trip (accommodation and food mainly) in Muslim areas. don't get me wrong, the people were fantastic, helpful and friendly and I have no problem with Muslims, I have many Muslim friends here at home. I would have liked to experience some interaction with other Malaysian sects just to see the difference. I must admit that a couple of times, I would have liked to sit down to eat some pork and pork crackling.
