Lock in a great price for Bilit Adventure Lodge – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

The friendly staff, good food, all kinds of wild animals.A beautiful sun terrace right by the Kinabatangan River.

Tomas, Czech Republic

Wonderful guide Robert helped us spot wildlife and let us borrow his binoculars! Every effort was made to have gluten free meals prepared for my partner. All included tours except for the night walks, but able to rent wellies and leech socks for a reasonable price. Pick up and drop off were on time and smooth rides!

Louise, United Kingdom

Beautiful location on the edge of tbe kinabatangan river. Lovely food, staff so helpful, our guide (Elod, aka gerry) was so great, always making sure that we were happy and comfortable. Despite below comment re price i'd go back tomorrow if i could!!

Scott, United Kingdom

Staff were very friendly, they are so helpful and more than happy to answer all your questions about the animals and the nature! Very calm and relaxing athmosphere. Lovely and clean bungalows surrounded by forest.

Irina, Switzerland

We had a 3D/2N package for our stay in Bilit. Everything was outstanding. Herman, our guide, collected us for our minibus transfer from Sandakan exactly as arranged. We were taken to Banana Cafe at Sepilok Jungle Resort for lunch which was delicious and then taken to Bilit. What a beautiful place. Herman's organisation was very efficient and prompt for the whole trip. Our river cruises were really interesting with plenty of wildlife being pointed out by Ben and Herman who were very knowledgeable. The night walk was great too. As ground conditions were too muddy we were offered an alternate river cruise instead of the jungle walk. Food was delicious and plentiful. The rooms were lovely with big comfy beds. All the staff were great and really helpful.

John, United Kingdom

Good service. Clean, safe. In the midle of jungle. Exciting river cruises and night walk in the jungle. Simple normal food.

Sandra, Lithuania

Staff were excellent. Simple accommodation but clean and comfortable. Had a great time on the boat spotting wildlife. Tour guide Momou was brilliant.

Het is een prachtig mooie locatie aan de rivier, prima kamer. Heel vriendelijk personeel en goede gidsen. Een hele relaxte gemoedelijke sfeer.

Theojolanda, Netherlands

De vriendelijkheid van al het personeel, de kennis van de rangers. De sfeer. Ze doen er alles aan om het je naar de zin te maken. Uitstekend eten. Kortom een geweldige locatie om de kilibatangan rivier met al zijn rijkdommen te ontdekken

There is a small bar but when we returned from the night walk it was open but there was noone around actually serving. It is best to take your own beer or wine. The minibus transfer does a supermarket stop so you can stock up. The Lodge is on the opposite bank to the tiny village so you have nowhere else to get anything.
We had a 3D/2N package for our stay in Bilit. Everything was outstanding. Herman, our guide, collected us for our minibus transfer from Sandakan exactly as arranged. We were taken to Banana Cafe at Sepilok Jungle Resort for lunch which was delicious and then taken to Bilit. What a beautiful place.

Day walk to ox lake was bad, guide was rushing. It was before the lunch time, no animals to see because of the heat,no birds in lake, it was disappointing part of this tour.
Good service. Clean, safe. In the midle of jungle. Exciting river cruises and night walk in the jungle. Simple normal food.
