    Asked on September 20th, 2024

    I am interested in touring Borneo with my two daughters, 12 and 10, and I was wondering if the accommodations can be together?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten September 2024

      Family of three - Wherever possible we will put you in a triple room. Please be aware that in a handful of places triple rooms are in short supply. This means that, in practice, a triple room will often simply be a twin room with a mattress on the floor or a further bed squashed in. Where it is impossible to provide a triple room, you will have to decide which of your party takes the single room.

      What is the difference between Borneo Family Holiday Comfort and Borneo Family Holiday? Some people seem to feel like they werent looked after well and some people are not happy with the accommodations.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten September 2024

      Borneo Family Holiday Comfort is a comfort style trip with a higher level of comfort, private transport more often, a more relaxed pace, and accommodation above the essentials. Borneo Family Holiday is an original style trip with local and private transport, tourist-class hotels (2 to 3 stars), and potential camping or homestay experiences.
