For adventurers and thrill seekers, Borneo is considered one of the greatest places to visit. If you are thinking of a place you might like to visit on holiday, you should strongly consider Borneo. It is one of the largest islands in the world and definitely the largest island in Asia. It has several mountains, with the tallest being about 4,000 meters tall. There are several different rivers that run throughout the island, as well as a very detailed and intricate cave system. Also, as it is an island, it obviously has beaches all over. Because of these unique features, it is a particularly exciting place for people to visit. You have a number of options for rafting, kayaking, swimming, mountaineering, hiking, mountain biking, and so on. The possibilities are endless.
However, you should not go to Borneo and attempt to explore by yourself. There are so many opportunities to be had in Borneo that you could very easily miss out on something that you would have enjoyed very much, simply by not knowing about it. Your best option is to hire a company that provides Borneo adventure tours. These tours will focus on certain activities on the island, catered to your individual desires, and you can choose which tour package excites you the most. Here are some of the activities you can look forward to.
Rafting
All over the world, rafting is an incredibly popular and exciting opportunity. It is regarded so highly amongst travelers because it can be customized to different skill and comfort levels. For example, rafting novices can travel down parts of the Kiulu River that are relatively calm. If you’re more of an adrenaline seeker, you might enjoy whitewater rafting on Padas.
Borneo is covered in rivers, so you’ll definitely have a variety of options for different rafting experiences.
Sea Kayaking
Obviously, Borneo adventure tours will offer a lot of ocean sports activities. Sea kayaking is one of the most popular. Kayaking is an activity that has grown in popularity over the past two decades or so. Sea kayaking offers an opportunity to travel out into the ocean and interact with the sea a little differently than just swimming. Kayakers can travel greater distances than swimmers, but the streamlined kayak shape means they won’t disturb native sea life and could possibly see unique aquatic animals.
Swimming
Swimming, of course, is going to remain one of the most popular activities on the island and the ocean around it. Many different people love swimming in the rivers, ocean, and other bodies of water. Borneo provides freshwater swimming opportunities, as well as crystal clear saltwater swimming opportunities. The resorts on the island also offer many different options for swimming in a luxurious swimming pool.
The weather on the island is lovely, temperate, and very conducive to watersports. Those are only a few of the activities available to you during Borneo adventure tours. You can hike, go mountain biking, or any endless number of exciting adventures. The tours are designed to provide for many different kinds of adventure activities. If you sign up for one of these tours, you’ll definitely have the best possible experience in Borneo.
