- Anonymous· April 24th, 2024Rhi was the best trip manager anyone could ask for! She is passionate about her job and it comes thru in every interaction you have with her. She makes an effort to not only keep everyone safe and comfortable on the trip but also goes above and beyond to make sure you get to do everything to want to have the best possible trip. She also makes a huge effort to make genuine connections with everyone she travels with. It is so clear that Rhi gives her all to this job and she was a hands down one of the reasons I had such an amazing trip. I would love to travel with her again some day!Show more

Asked on February 24th, 2025What month would you consider to be the most ideal please.

Traveler•Written February 2025We are not sure what month to make this trip. Can you tell us the average temperature and humidity for September, compared to earlier in the year, say February/March/April.
ContikiOperator•Written February 2025September in Borneo often sees average temperatures ranging from 24°C to 32°C (75°F to 90°F), with moderate to high humidity levels. Compared to earlier months like February, March, and April, the temperatures are quite similar, typically ranging from 23°C to 31°C (73°F to 88°F) during those months as well. However, Borneo experiences a bit more rainfall towards the later part of the year, including September.
- ContikiOperator•Written February 2025
April is considered a great time to visit due to relatively dry weather and comfortable temperatures. August can also be pleasant, though it's typically warmer. As of now, we have available departures in April, August, September, and October 2025.

Asked on January 23rd, 2025Tenemos con mi esposo 69 años. Quisiera saber si aceptan por la edad, nos podemos trasladar sin problemas. Respecto a la puesta de huevos de las tortugas, mes recomendado.
- ContikiOperator•Written January 2025
Contiki tours have an age restriction, and guests must be between 18-35 years old to be eligible to join. We would like to recommend one of our sister brands - Costsaver which is open to all ages, and may be a great fit for you.
