A family of Bornean pygmy elephants might roaring out of the bush and crossing the river in front of you is the rarest sight of all, and the morning light is ideal for taking pictures of it. After returning and having a hearty breakfast and taking a nap in the middle of the day, continue a guided jungle walk to get an inside look at the rainforest.
