Lesser-known Sandakan itinerary in Malaysia, a simplified version of rainforest exploration

Lesser-known activities in Malaysia A simplified version of Amazon rainforest exploration 130 million-year-old tropical rainforest in Asia Tropical rainforest animal exploration tour 🌟Highlights: This rainforest exploration is indeed a rainforest, and an ancient one at that, but the conditions are quite basic, even rudimentary, but the visitors are all Europeans. There are usually two possibilities for such a place: it is either lesser-known or wild, so it is still worth looking forward to. Visit the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre🦧, Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre🐻, Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary🐒, and Rainforest Discovery Centre🌳, all of which are next to each other. The entire itinerary revolves around the rainforest and canals, with the five most famous wild animals in the canals being hornbills, proboscis monkeys, elephants, orangutans, and crocodiles. The entire itinerary consists of boat trips and hiking, with three time slots to play in a day, and you can also visit animal conservation centers in between. One-day exploration itinerary: 5:00 am: Morning boat trip 7:00 am: Breakfast 9:30 am–10:00 am: Morning rainforest walk 12:00 pm: Lunch 4:00 pm–6:00 pm: Afternoon boat trip 7:00 pm: Dinner 8:00 pm–9:00 pm: Night rainforest walk There is a guide throughout the trip, so communication is not a big problem. Hiking and night animal watching are particularly interesting, as it is rare for most people to see so many rainforest animals. The tropical rainforest itinerary here is relatively relaxing, making it very suitable for taking children along, following the guide on a boat to look for wild animals. Conservation centers to visit along the way: 1. Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre: Orangutans are also known locally as orangutans, an endangered species of ape with 96.4% of their DNA similar to humans. 2. Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary: The world's only private proboscis monkey sanctuary, where you can get super close to the monkeys. 3. Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre: You can see the world's smallest bear species, with a sun pattern on their chest, which is endangered. Every bear in the park has been rescued. Sandakan, Sandakan Division, Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary, Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre 📝Tips: 1. Clothing: Sunscreen clothing and quick-drying pants, mainly to prevent mosquito bites when hiking in the rainforest. 2. Mosquito repellent, which is very important, as there are mosquitoes everywhere when hiking, so buy outdoor-specific ones. 3. Cash, as many places do not accept mobile payments. 4. Binoculars, as you rely on them to see animals. 5. Disposable socks, wear one pair and throw one pair away, and they should be long socks to prevent leeches. 6. Raincoat 7. Hiking shoes
