Itinerary
3 Nights – KL or Singapore (optional)
4 Nights – Kuching
3 Nights – Gunung Mulu
7 Nights – Kota Kinabalu
✈ UK – Kuala Lumpur/Singapore (Optional 2-3 Nights): Your holiday will start with a direct flight from your chosen UK airport to either Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur or Singapore. If you would like to, you can stay a couple of nights to explore the city first before taking a flight on to Kuching. Both Kuala Lumpur and Singapore have so much to see and do; there are temples, skyscrapers and night markets – and not forgetting the fantastic local cuisine to enjoy!
✈ Kuala Lumpur – Kuching (4 Nights): We will then fly you on to Kuching on Malaysian Borneo, from here you can choose to either stay in the state capital of Kuching or in the Permai Rainforest for four nights. Staying in colourful Kuching means that you can visit the orangutan sanctuaries on day trips to the rainforest as well as explore the city’s colonial roots, temples and museums. Or if you prefer, you can stay in the heart of the jungle at the Permai Rainforest eco resort. There are endless exciting activities to take part in; take a guided trek through the jungle to have your eyes opened to the tropical flora and fauna, catch a glimpse of an orangutan swinging through the jungle canopy, visit the hospitable indigenous people in their longhouse communities or even spot an Irrawaddy dolphin in the South China Sea.
✈ Kuching – Gunung Mulu (3 Nights): You will then take a short flight on to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Gunung Mulu National Park close to the Malaysian / Brunei border. With three nights here you will have time to explore the park famous for its spectacular limestone caves and karsts. With boat trips down rivers and treks across bamboo bridges and along plank walkways, reaching the magnificent caves is a jungle adventure in itself. Inside each cave is different; some with clear water and others with giant stalagmites and stalactites and, without a doubt these are some of the most incredible caves in the world.
✈ Gunung Mulu – Kota Kinabalu (7 Nights): Flying onto Kota Kinabalu, further east in Borneo, you will then have seven nights staying on the white powder-soft sandy shores of the stunning South China Sea. Here you can enjoy a week of wonderful beach relaxation before flying back to the UK, either via Singapore or Kuala Lumpur.
✈ Kota Kinabalu – UK: On your last day in Kota Kinabalu we will collect you and transfer you to the airport for your flight back to the UK.

Very happy with the services provided so far, and I am particularly pleased with how our travel agent Emily was able to not only set up a great initial plan for our Japan holiday, but she also was very quick and super polite when it came to amending our itinerary to our specifications, as well as the transparency in terms of the details of our trip and the associated costs. I am very excited to embark on the upcoming journey!

My 2nd time booking with eShores. Excellent customer service working with one agent to create a personalised, bespoke holiday. My arrangements changed part-way through so a number of quotes were needed. Nick was patient, helpful and responded quickly (by email and phone) throughout. Well recommended.

I sent eShores an email asking them to tailor a holiday to Italy for me. This is a surprise for my husbands 70th birthday. Therefore we could only liaise via email. Leanne got onto it straight away and sent me all the necessary information. I phined her the following day when my husband was out. She explained everything to me. I was so grateful as this took the stress off of me.

Fantastic service from Lynette from start to finish. Went to Australia this year and Lynette sorted everything out for us, even when we had a small emergency, when in Perth, she answered our concerns straight away and looked into it and advised us what to do. We had such a great time we're off to America next year and Lynette has sorted us again, hoping this time that everything goes according to plan!!!!
