Sabah
Danum Valley Field Center
The Danum Valley Field Center offers guests the chance to stay right in the heart of the renowned conservation area, alongside scientists and researchers studying the wonderful flora and fauna of the region.
Accommodation is basic but sufficient. Only certain categories have air conditioning, which is recommended in the humid conditions. Management is currently working to improve the accommodation options for increasing tourism interest, and four new two bedroom houses are also being refurbished, which will offer a better option for guests. Meals are served buffet style in the cafeteria/restaurant area.
There is an extensive trail network available from the center, and guides can be provided. The onsite gallery contains interesting specimens from the research conducted there. This is a great option for guests who wish to be fully immersed in the Danum Valley and do not require luxury board.
Facilities
Rooms have either fans or AC, ensuite bathrooms and double or twin beds. The lodge has a communal dining and relaxation area for guests to enjoy.
Local Wildlife
With over 270 species of birds and a diverse array of wildlife, including the Bornean Orangutan, Pygmy Elephant, and many other mammals, Danum Valley is a paradise for nature enthusiasts.
Optional Activities
Many jungle treks are available in both primary and secondary forest surrounding the lodge.

We have now arrived back in the UK after a truly memorable Borneo holiday. The tour…was fantastic, we saw a great range of wildlife…It is a tie between the wild orang-utan and the grazing elephants as to the highlight of the holiday. The guides were excellent…The tour has left us with two problems: how can we afford to have all our film developed and where do we go on holiday next year? Thanks for arranging a great holiday.
