I recently had the honor of staying at the Danum Valley Borneo Rainforest Lodge and I can honestly say it was everything one could wish for in an ecological wonderland. From beautiful, comfortable rooms, to the friendliest, most efficient staff, to outstanding cuisine, to fabulous tour guide (Hendry), to the magic and mystery of experiencing one of the oldest rainforests on earth - just fabulous! Oh, did I mention the beautiful wildlife: orangutans, red leaf monkeys, gibbons, langurs, green tree snakes, hornbills and so much more. Let's hope this vibrant, exquisite sanctuary and Lodge continues to be supported. It is definitely worth the journey to get there.
