Morning, pick up from your hotel in Sandakan or from Sandakan Airport and transfer to the famous Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre. Founded in 1964, the Centre helps to teach once captive, injured or abandoned Orang Utans to learn and fend for themselves again, with the hope that one day they may be returned to the forest. The semi-wild Orang Utans are fed twice a day with milk and bananas during their rehabilitation process. Watch the feeding of the orang utans. Walk along a jungle trail and observe the tropical lowland rainforest.

After lunch, proceed to the jetty for a boat trip into the mangrove forest. Observe species of plants in this unique vegetation and explore how mankind benefit from it. A good chance to see the Borneo Endemic Proboscis Monkeys, macaques, birds, reptiles and other wildlife toward later part of the afternoon. Return to jetty and transfer to your hotel in Sandakan or to Sandakan Airport. (L)
