Day 8 Headhunters' Trail/Limbang
Walk part of the ominously named Headhunters Trail, historically used by warring parties that were travelling between the Limbang and Tutoh rivers.
Days 9-10 Kota Kinabalu
Jump in a traditional longtail boat and be whisked down the river to Limbang. From here, make tracks to a beachside resort near Kota Kinabalu. Staying near the beach, yet close to the city, provides the perfect base from which to snorkel, swim or simply relax on the Borneo coast. A great way to end this Wild Sarawak adventure tour.
