Hope everybody enjoys the film!! 🦧 Just finalising the 2024 tours: - Sri Lanka - Jan '24 - Kenya & Tanzania - Aug '24 - Uganda - Aug '24 - Canadian Rockies - Sep '24 Aiming to launch them next (there'll be a video on here and all the info will be on the website) and then they'll go on sale at the end of the month. So stay tuned, lots of info to come! I'm now editing the Slovenia trip from July, that'll be the next film. Tonight I'm flying out to South Korea, although that trip won't come out til next year, because I'll want to first edit November's Patagonia + Antarctica trip!! 😃 So lots to look forward to!!

I went to a similar trip in Borneo few years ago. Is a tear dropping trip in many parts of the trip. Observing mother turtle laying the eggs, say goodbye to baby turtle. Spot orang utan and the super cute sun bear. Unlike Africa wildlife trip, wildlife in Borneo make you connecting to the nature in a peaceful way.

Proud Sabahan here. Thank you for choosing Sabah as your choice of documentaries and vacation.🎉😊

Im super proud as Sabahan and you just documented a world class video here!! No wonder wildlife all came out to show their best! You certainly done your homework before head out into the wild. Knew where to party like locals. Good on you mate. Do come back. There are still more to be explored. Danum Valley, Maliau Basin, Imbak Canyon etc. Those islands off Semporna are must go!!

Proud to be malaysian. I love borneo. Been to some of the places in the vidoe.

Very beautiful video. You have introduced Malaysia to the world. Thank you🙏👍😍

After seeing this video I have added Borneo to my endless travel list

It's the kind of adventure that leaves you breathless and questioning your life choices, but the view from the top is so jaw-dropping, you'll momentarily forget the burning in your calves. I visited Borneo in the past and I immediately realized that in Borneo, 'safari' doesn't mean just 'watching'; it means 'playing peekaboo with the wild ones.' And if you manage to spot all five, you're officially the David Attenborough of your group!

Me and my partner done this trip in 2019 and it was by far our favourite place with the amount of wildlife. Nice video again Karl!👏🏻

Hands down the best one ive seen. Slow lorris, Tarsiers, and even Whale Shark! Only miss one thing that is also rare which is the river dolphins ❤

This video is so wholesome!! Probably the best Borneo trip I ever seen. You guys were so lucky to see all those animals!

I don't know who Felix is, but bro, as a Sabahan, I have a lot of respect for you because you have always made the tourists happy during their stay in Sabah. I didn't see the farewell video in this video, but I think there may be tears when parting with Felix and the state of Sabah. P/s: im using google translate 😂😂

Amazing🎉 you guys quite lucky.. you’ve got a whole package of Jurasic Park, Vertical Limit, National Geogaphic and Avatar in one shot of trip. What a lucky!!!😮😊🎉.. and Felix, what a great guy!🎉

Another masterpiece. So relaxing other than the mountain. What a privilege to be able to travel to these places and see these animals and habitats. Borneo's alright I guess indeed.

Wow-easily the best travel video I’ve ever seen in KZread-the variety of experiences in Borneo you documented Karl were just Amazing-hiking up a mountain…..Snorkeling on an island with Turtles……and River Forrest boating…….Safari Forrest hiking at night……Whalesharks…….I don’t know of any destination in the world that offers all of this. Superb and epic video Karl!

The last part with the shark is epic!! Wonderful moments to connect with nature.

Mantap👍 Hidup Sabah! Hidup Malaysia! 🥰

Congratulations guys for being able to completed the hikes. I climbed when I was 16 yrs old... I'm very proud and honoured being one of the 33 indigenous community of SABAH NORTH BORNEO...Watching this video can't wait to go back and climb the majestic mountain Akinnablu again...Thanks👍

Hello, Karl! Greetings from Sabah! Thanks for your fantastic video on our beautiful Sabah. You've truly managed to capture the breathtaking beauty of Sabah in all its glory. Terima kasih🙏

As somebody grew up in Borneo currently working in the Philippines, this makes me miss my home. The greenery that I’m so used to growing up vs the concrete jungle where I currently stay, it’s just different

Wow! I found myself so immersed in the video that I felt like I was really there on that trip. I felt so excited when you spotted the rare animals. I can also understand the pain of going down a steep mountain. My legs are like jello, and i just want to kneel down and kiss the flat ground! Kudos to another amazing film. I am going on an Intrepid Travel 15 Day Explore Egypt trip in November, and this helps me manage until the trip. It reminds me why I love to travel!

This is addictive. I watched Pakistan becuase I really wanting to go. And now watching this. It is 1am. I need to wake up at 6am and still, watching. So good travel stories. Love all of them.

I have watched countless of videos on Malaysia, my beloved country. Yours is hands down, the best! Thank you for documenting this beautiful experience. Subscribed! ❤

I must say this is a superb documentary. Lucky enough to get the chance observing the turtle laid eggs, encountered with the pigmy elephant and not to forget the beautiful orangutans. What an amazing experience!

Fantastic. I'm Malaysian and haven't even gotten the chance to visit. Your video made me peel onions!!

Wow u guys are sure lucky spotting a whale shark at gaya island 😮 Ive live in borneo for more than 2decade i have never seen whaleshark 🤦‍♂️anyway really great video. Sabah need more people like you to promote this underrated destination! Thanks for making me proud living in this place.😊

Malaysia borneo so beautiful, And your video is masterpiece, its perfect, love from indonesia

This is such a Wonderful Utube to watch and l enjoyed every bit of it. The lovely, funny ppls, amazing mother nature and beautiful animals l love much. Some day i will visit Borneo ❤🐾🐾 Thank you so much for sharing!

Congrats on the climb. I used to climb back in my tour guiding days. Stopped in 2018 after a bad injury. Thanks for sharing this video. I missed Mt. Kinabalu a lot. Do holla if you ever return to Borneo, in Sarawak. Will try my best to bring you around.

Borneo is amazing 🇲🇾 🦧 We did the same trip with Felix in Sept 2022! Sunrise at the top of Mt Kinabalu is like no other. However I got caught in a torrential downpour when decending from Mt Kinabalu 😅 Thank you for taking us back down memory lane 😊

This video came up randomly and was well worth the view. Reminded me of my visit there coming from Saigon where me... a native New Yorker was working for a British company to attend a regional conference. We stopped firstly in KL then Brunei where at sunset the sky was absolutely crimson. Finally making it to the conference center about 8PM my wife and I decided to have dinner in our room. At about 9:30 my wife went for a shower and I turned on the news to a shock. It was the evening of September 11, 2001 there and so 9:30 AM or so in New York. What I saw made me think the doomsday clock had just struck midnight with the world trade center burning on one side of the TV screen and the Pentagon burning on the other. For a moment I was thinking that I may be living the rest of my life in Borneo. Anyway... we could see the mountain the next day but did not have time to climb it.

Thank you for coming to Sabah , my home!!❤❤

The video is soo well edited!!! I never thought I will watch the whole video

I didn't believe that I watched the whole video without any skip. Keep up the good work bro. You are so dope.

Hey Londoner here, and in Kota Kinabalu at the very moment.. enjoying this to help me travel around Borneo

Love it !!

Such an incredible world! It's amazing to witness it through your travel documentary! 👏👏👏

Just got back from Sabah on this last Wednesday. Did a similar trip but not exactly the same. Some very familiar sights. Enjoyed your movie and think it does a pretty good job of showing what it is like except you didnt show the endless Palm Oil plantations outside of the reserve areas. I was a bit disappointed and slightly surprised that so much of Sabah had been planted. We didn't see an orangutan on the river either, but did see two gibbons. We didn't see the elephants, so you are lucky and I'm extremely envious. A cloud leopard would have been the most epic. But no, we were not that lucky. Thanks for your work.

So Magical!!! You guys are so awesome and had the best rainbow lucks with wildlife and Nature!! Glad the trip becomes a memorable one for everyone albeit the sweat and puff during the early descent! Haha... Truly excellent videography at work! Watching your piece is like a Nature's treat and professional photography with some laughs and fun! Thanks for sharing. Lovely and epical soundscapes and your narration is captivating allright. And lastly, so happy for both of you, lovely couple! May the best comes to your life. So, Borneo is like the fantasy Jurrassic park right?! Cheers!!

Nice. I climbed also Kinabalu this year 😀 It is really a very nice and challenging hike. Wonderful natural place to record some videos 🙂🙂

The Sabah trip was super super super cool. I am Malaysian but I have never visited East Malaysia. This video really inspires me to do so, of course less that mountain climb !

Thanks Karl for sharing this fantastic Sabah adventure, very well edited and enjoyable video.

U took the trail that was mainly steps up to the peak of Mount Kinabalu. I can understand the mind numbing plodding since it was the same way up and down the mountain. The one i did started from mesilau and i remember it being more naturail trail. So it felt more like a hike than just climbing stairs. Still, applaud u guys for summitting. Also, thank you for this wonderful video documenting your trip. I teared up several times. Beauty of nature kinda does that...😂 And you did a great job conveying it through your lens and storytelling P/s. Just saw the ending and wow. I didn't know whale sharks swam to our shores! That must have been so memorable

Welcome to Sabah, Malaysia you guys were so lucky to see the pygmy elephants!! I went on for hours along the rivers in the scorching heat but no luck to see the elephants. 🐘 Oh btw pygmy elephants are an excellent swimmer

Your videos and commentary is second to none, you should be way more recognised! I would love to join a trip.. It's very tempting 😂

Hello there! I am from Sabah, and I would like to say thank you for showing the world how amazing Sabah are. even i myself have not visited the places you guys went too. I am so happy to see all of you having fun seeing the sunset, wildlife and the shark too. Please come again! :)

Absolutely amazing filming and editing as always. Looks like everyone had an absolute blast. I gotta say, I must be the odd one, because I find hiking down anything, 10 times easier than hiking up. I know you'll want to quickly say "but you were not there" and you're right.... but I've climbed Half Dome at Yosemite in a day. 16 or so miles in total, with a 1,600 meter increase in elevation and then back down. I think I left my car at like 6am, hit the top at 3-4pm, spent an hour up there, and then basically jogged down in like 3 hours. If I recall, the pizza cafe closed at 9pm and that was my single goal, to get there in time for a pizza. Same with the Schilthorn too. I cheated and took the cable car up and easily hiked back to Gimmelwald with ease. The thought of climb up there... no thanks. God bless cable cars!

That was awesome! Thank you for bringing me in your travel😂...as if I was there too!

Muchas Gracias por tu apoyo prestada

I have been to Borneo may this year and had the luck to see the orang utan in the wild. You video brings me back to that magical place ❤.keep up the great work!! Ps the proboscis monkey centre is owned by the palm oil industry.
