Watching Proboscis Monkeys In Borneo

By Jonny Blair


If you visit Sabah in Malaysia in Borneo, it's probable that you will have heard of these proboscis monkeys. Wild, long nosed monkeys who live in the jungles of Borneo. They are only found in Borneo so this is a rare and unique chance to see them. The only other place they exist is in a zoo.

How to organise watching Proboscis Monkeys in Borneo.

You can find companies offering these tours in Kota Kinabalu. I have met tons of so called "budget backpackers" over the years who insist that booking through tour companies is always dearer - it's often not and your best way to see the proboscis monkeys is to book it through a company. But make sure they include hostel pick up, food, proboscis monkey boat tour and fireflies boat tour. It's easy to organise - find a company, agree a price and get your tickets.

What price is it to see the Proboscis monkeys?

Overall you should expect to pay around 60 Ringitts. This includes almost everything you need on the tour such as boats, transport there and back and of course the afternoon tea and the buffet dinner. It is a really good trip well worth booking!

How do you get to Klias Wetlands Park for watching Proboscis Monkeys in Borneo?

Transport was comfortable and efficient and all included in the tour. It was a small mini-bus we got. It took us from Kota Kinabalu to the venue.

Getting to Klias Wetlands Park should be easy enough - our transport was included in the tour and it usually is. It's in the heart of the jungles of Borneo but this doesn't stop the whole trip being amazing. It makes for an incredible experience even just getting there.

You will see other types of monkeys without the long noses such as this one. It's not a proboscis monkey.

At the end of the tour you can also eat in a buffet dinner on the boat or by a restaurant beside the river. Overall, the monkey experience of Borneo is quite brilliant and worth travelling out to. You may never get another chance in life to see such curious wild monkeys in the wild. Have a safe and enjoyable trip out there everybody and happy travels to each and everyone of you.
