Take a pair of ear plugs. There may be times when room sharing when your room mate will keep you awake. On some adventure tours the group may all be in one camp or room and there will be a whole chorus. Irene

Miri & Mulu

Miri’s charm lays in its potpourri of tribes, races, culture and languages. Miri is a unique cosmopolitan town yet distinctly “Borneo”. Mulu National Park is a short flight from Miri. Home to the largest cave system in the world, the climb up Mt Api (The Pinnacles) and the start of the Headhunter Trail to Limbang, Mulu is the centre of Borneo Adventure.

When to go...
Sabah is a tropical country, it is either hot from March through to November or hot and humid late November through to early March, which is the wet season. Cities tend to have higher temperatures than the jungle and river communities as they tend to soak up the passive heat. Even if you are intending an adventure to up river communities it is recommended that you book a hotel with air conditioning in the cities. It is commonly believed that in the wet season it rains constantly this is not true, instead the humidity tends to build up during the day and late afternoon/early evening there is a cloud burst or a spectacular thunderstorm which cools everything down again. You have never seen rain until you see a Borneo rain.
 

Mulu and river travel
During the dry season if travelling by longboat be prepared to get wet feet. Boats often bottom out on the shingle beds and need to be pushed. In the wet season the opposite can happen, with flooded rivers making it too dangerous to travel. Best not to have fixed plans or tight airline bookings if travelling in the interior.
