    1. There are various activity that you can do and places to visits in Borneo. If you
    want to go scuba diving, Sabah is the place to do so. Sabah has a generous
    amount of world-class diving destinations. From the famous Sipidan and
    Mabul Island on the east coast to Layan-Layang and the Tunku Abdul
    Rahman Marine Park close to Kota Kinabalu, you'll find plenty of incredible
    action underwater. Next, you can go and watch Proboscis Monkeys. Labuk
    Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary is the place to learn all about the
    endangered, floppy-nosed proboscis monkeys. For a more adventurous
    experience, you can visit Sukau just outside of Sandakan in Sabah to arrange
    a boat trip down the Kinabatangan River to see wild proboscis monkeys along
    the banks. If you are looking for some adventure, you can go mountain
    climbing. Climbing Mount Kinabalu in Sabah is a rite of passage for
    adventurous travelers to Borneo. The volcano towers to 13,435 feet and is the
    third tallest in Southeast Asia. While climbing the slopes doesn't require
    technical training or equipment, getting to the top takes a lot of physical
    stamina -- and a permit. Other than that, you happen to stay in Kota Kinabalu,
    you can go shopping. Kota Kinabalu in Sabah offers more malls, markets, and
    retail shopping experiences. Malls may be good for rainy days, but fluorescent
    lighting isn't why you came to Borneo! Have a look in some of the local.
    2. If you are in Sarawak, there are also many interesting activity you can do. You
    can learn about indigenous culture. You'll learn lots about Dayak people and
    their former headhunting practices in the free museums around Kuching. The
    Sarawak Cultural Village just outside of town has mock-up houses built in
    each of the traditional styles. Next, you can stay in longhouse. Staying in the
    jungle with an indigenous group is an unforgettable experience. While some
    longhouse stays are catered to tourists, you can still find authentic
    experiences in Sarawak. The most authentic longhouses are accessible only
    by river; you'll need to arrange a visit through the local tourism board.
    Sarawak is famous for its music festival. Rainforest World Music Festival held
    each summer just outside of Kuching in Sarawak. And while Borneo may not
    seem the place for jazz culture, the Miri Jazz Festival attracts big performers
    from all over the world. Finally, if you want some adventure, Sarawak is the
    perfect place to do caving. Gunung Mulu National Park, a UNESCO World
    Heritage Site in the north of Sarawak, is famous for its giant cave system. For
    an easier-to-reach experience, consider visiting Niah National Park near Miri
    for the famous caves there.
    3. Other activity that you can do in Borneo is watching orang utans. You've got
    an opportunity to see semi-wild orangutans in both Sarawak and Sabah.
    Sarawak's Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre just outside of Kuching
    is smaller, cheaper, and typically less crowded than Sabah's more famous
    Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre.
