The Kinabatangan River always reminds me of the hornbill, which called the king of birds. As I cruise along the river, it's frequent to spot these magnificent birds flying in pairs above. Kinabatangan is celebrated for its incredible bird and animal watching opportunities, offering an unforgettable experience. I particularly love the river's misty mornings and the rainy periods, which create an otherworldly, dreamlike atmosphere that's both mystical and captivating.
