Welcome to River Junkie!

River Junkie Tours Sdn Bhd was established in 2008 as the sister company of Scuba Junkie and offers mountain climbing, jungle trekking, nature tours and river rafting as well as cultural and eco-tourism experiences throughout Sabah.
 
Our dedicated office team is based in Wisma Sabah, Kota Kinabalu and can provide advice and personal itinerary planning based on your interests and their extensive knowledge of Sabah. Our sales consultants will happily assist you with booking anything from a simple half day tour in Kota Kinabalu to a 2 week long journey through Sabah – just get in touch for ideas.
 
On the ground, we have trusted and passionate guides and drivers ready to provide a high quality service. In areas where we do not have our own guides, we work with lodges that we have tried and tested ourselves, as we only recommend what we know and enjoy! We continue to add and expand the products and locations we focus on, so we can provide new experiences each time you visit with us.

Fully licensed tour operator

  • ​River Junkie is a member of MATTA (the Malaysian Association of Travel & Tour Agents) as well as a licensed tour operator (Tourism License holder).
  • Our guides have a passion for the wild, are experienced and have gone through extensive training on the natural and cultural history of Sabah.
  • None of our vehicles are more than 4 years old, most just 1-2 years, and all drivers are trained in defensive driving techniques as we consider your safety our main priority
  • River Junkie is featured as the "trusted tour operator for wildlife and adventure tours across Borneo" on Travelscams.org

Commitment to local communities

​Alongside our commitment to providing a high quality service to all our visitors, we also believe that it is our responsibility to give back to the communities in areas that we work in. 
  • We are proud to support community-based eco-tourism in the Kinabatangan through our involvement with Tungog Rainforest Eco-Camp, a community co-operative in the Lower Kinabatangan.
  • Guests joining our Kiau trekking and 2D1N Kiau village tours are directly supporting and benefiting a rural community in the foothills of Mount Kinabalu.
  • Our tour guides and drivers, whenever possible, are employed directly from the local towns and villages in the area they are working to benefit from their local knowledge, support local families and help to promote employment in under-developed areas.

Environmental contribution

The beauty of Sabah lies in it's natural resources, abundant wildlife and stunning rainforests. As a company responsible for bringing visitors into Sabah, it is our duty to protect the areas we work in from any adverse impacts of tourism.
  • ​For every guest who visits the Kinabatangan river, a RM10 per night donation is made to KITA (Kinabatangan corridor of life tourism association).
  • For every guest who visits Danum Valley or Maliau Basin, a portion of the fee paid goes towards conserving the area.
  • Our group sizes are limited to maximum 8 per guide in Maliau Basin and Danum Valley Conservation area to help minimize the impact of tourism on these important rainforest ecosystems.
  • Transport is done on a join-in basis wherever possible to reduce carbon emissions.
  • We actively encourage all visitors to bring a refillable water bottle on trips and take advantage of free water refills available at our offices and most lodges.

Honest pricing policy

As travellers ourselves, we are passionate about the trips we offer and like to think we know what fellow travellers want with their travelling experience. We believe that there is nothing worse than booking a trip and later discovering you paid over the moon for it. At River Junkie, we like to keep our pricing as fair, honest and transparent as possible. If you find the exact trip that we are offering for a lower price, we will either match it or beat it - this is our guarantee in providing you with honest pricing.
