Another article I recently published as part of the Travel Wire Asia / Tourism Malaysia campaign was “Discovering Malaysian Borneo in seven days“.

This incredible region is one of the most diverse on the planet in terms of wildlife both above the water and below, has fantastic rainforests and rivers, and its people groups are truly incredible: head hunters, jungle dwellers and a myriad of ethnicities.

The article features suggestions for a week’s itinerary. However for more images to highlight the region scroll down below.

If you want to check out more images on the database here are some links to look at:
