Back in England, one week before our wedding and impending subsequent departure to the other side of the world, I decided somewhat foolishly you might think, to carefully read some of the literature sent by Kuoni, our Tour Operator, about the items we should take with us and the health requirements when we visit the Sepilok Orang-utan Sanctuary in the Sabah region of Borneo. I already knew intimately well about the extra costs of the recommended injections, we'd been regular visitors to GP clinics to receive our Hepatitis A and B, Tetanus booster, and Typhoid jabs - some of these injections clearly being so complicated that the scientists haven't figure out ...  Read the complete review

I first went here a couple of years ago, and will be going back later on this year. My dad lives near Kota Kinabalu and we drove to Sandakan where this centre is, it was a VERY long drive but totally worth it.

Sepilok Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre was one of the trips I took part in. Where Is It? Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre is in a place called Sepilok which is in the Sabah District of Borneo. We had this trip included as part of a three day excursion so all our travel was arranged for us. I think most people that visit this centre do it on some kind of excursion so travel arrangements shouldn't really be a problem About Sepilok The Rehabilitation Centre consists of 43 square kilometres of ...  Read the complete review
