Co dělat ve městě Ranau

Přihlásili jsme se jako 4 dospělí a 4 děti s naší rodinou a rodinou přátel. Vyzvedli nás v hotelu v 7:30 ráno a odtud jsme jeli 2,5 hodiny na vyhlídku na horu Kinabalu. Cesta z centra Kota Kinabalu k hoře Kinabalu byla ucpaná, ale flexibilně nám vyšli vstříc s přestávkami na toaletu pro děti. Na vyhlídce jsme pořídili spoustu fotek a odtud jsme se vydali na farmu Desa 🐮. Cestou jsme se zastavili v místním obchodě s ovocem. Náš průvodce Jeff nám představil ovoce, které jsme nikdy předtím neviděli, a koupili jsme si po jednom nebo dvou kusech, abychom je ochutnali 🥭. Byli jsme nadšeni z ovoce, o kterém jsme nikdy neslyšeli ani ho neviděli, jako je jablečné želé, avokádový sýr a hadí ovoce 😆. Avokádový sýr chutnal jako sladká dušená dýně, s texturou a chutí, která se nepodobala ovoci! Bylo to vynikající 😋. Odtud jsme se vydali na farmu Desa. Protože se nachází ve vysoké nadmořské výšce asi 1 500 m, nebylo příliš horko a bylo to příjemné! Bylo jasno a málo mraků, takže jsme pořídili spoustu krásných fotek s ostrými hřebeny hory Kinabalu v pozadí. Objevilo se i sluneční halo ☀️. Jeff nám hladce ukázal doporučené aktivity, jako je zmrzlina a krmení telat a koz. Jeff, který je také otcem čtyř dětí, je dobře obeznámen se zábavnými videi na TikToku a děti si to užily, když jsme natáčeli zábavná videa jako rodina, a byli jsme velmi spokojeni 😁. Poté jsme poobědvali v nedaleké restauraci a vydali se na pozorování raflézie 🌺. Obávali jsme se, zda ji uvidíme, protože kvete jen 5 až 7 dní v roce, ale viděli jsme dvě kvetoucí raflézie ✌️. Byly tam i pupeny a uschlé květy, takže jsme zažili něco, co lze vidět jen tam 👌. V blízkosti byly také kakaovníky a durianovníky! Duriany rostou na tak vysokých stromech, to je úžasné 😳. To bylo po 15:00. Děti už byly unavené, takže jsme se rozhodli změnit itinerář a vrátit se domů. Ranní zácpa byla dlouhá 💦. Na zpáteční cestě se na vrcholu hory Kinabalu vznášel podivný mrak. Jeff nám řekl, že je to vzácné 👌. Cesta zpět byla také trochu ucpaná, ale nějak jsme se vrátili do hotelu kolem 19:00. Měli jsme se vrátit v 17:30, ale cesta byla ucpaná kvůli dopravě a letním prázdninám. Doporučuji vzít si s sebou trochu více hotovosti, protože na místě s raflézií je potřeba repelent proti hmyzu a v některých restauracích na oběd nelze platit kreditní kartou. Jeffe, děkujeme za zábavnou prohlídku‼️ Bylo to velmi příjemné s nádhernými scenériemi a zábavným doprovodem. Doporučuji 👌

Roy byl velmi přátelský a ochotný. Jelikož byla stezka v korunách stromů posledních několik měsíců uzavřena, byla místo ní nahrazena túrou k vodopádu.

Just finished a one-day tour of Mount Kinabalu in Sabah, and I have to give a huge shoutout to our private guide, Xiaoyang (William)! 👍🏻🙋🏻‍♂️ I originally thought the long drive to and from the mountain would be exhausting and boring, but Xiaoyang was a fantastic conversationalist along the way. He shared a lot of local history and culture of Sabah, guided us on a short trek up the mountain, and even stopped to introduce us to unique plants we saw along the trail 🌴🍃. The content was engaging and fun, and time flew by. 🥹 We were super lucky to catch a glimpse of Mount Kinabalu and the Rafflesia! The guide truly put a lot of thought into arranging everything for us, ensuring the entire itinerary ran smoothly, and even treated us to Malaysian cuisine for lunch 🍱! He took such good care of us throughout the trip, constantly reminding everyone to stay safe. The biggest surprise was his photography skills 📸. His composition was top-notch, and he was incredibly patient, taking tons of gorgeous photos for us to keep as memories. There was non-stop laughter all day, and the atmosphere was very relaxed. 😆✨ Meeting Xiaoyang this time really added so much value to the whole trip! 🩷 If any of our friends go to Sabah in the future, or if we visit again ourselves, we will definitely ask him to be our guide again! 😍

The itinerary was very well organized, allowing us to visit several spots in one trip. The duration at each stop was just right, so it never felt rushed. Our first stop was the observation deck, where there were many fruit vendors nearby selling fresh and delicious fruits! The best part was realizing later in the city that the fruit here was actually the cheapest! The farm was also a lot of fun; for 20 Malaysian Ringgit, you could feed milk and forage to the animals, and the yogurt and milk ice cream were amazing! The fish spa was very entertaining, and the tour guide taught us feeding techniques. It was a bit scary at first. Lunch was better than expected, featuring vegetables, meat, and fruit. The tour included a complimentary ATV experience, allowing us to ride through the wilderness. We were very lucky to see a Rafflesia flower this time; although it had been blooming for five days and was starting to turn dark, there was still an unopened bud right next to it. On the way back, we had roasted wild boar and pulled tea. The roasted wild boar is highly recommended! The two of us shared a portion and were left wanting more. Overall, the value for money is extremely high, and I highly recommend it!

Itinerary: The length was just right. Safety: Very safe. Scenery: Diverse, and we even saw the Rafflesia flower, enjoyed fish spa by the lake, and tasted wild boar meat. It was very interesting and unforgettable. Facilities provided: ATV and skydiving safety measures were excellent, making it very fun and exciting. A fulfilling day with a packed schedule. Tour Guide: Xiao Mei was professional, attentive, and patient, following up throughout the trip and being very thoughtful. Lunch: Freshly cooked and delicious, with cold drinks and fresh fruit. Very good. The day before departure, all important information was sent via WhatsApp, which was very thoughtful. It was a great travel experience. The one-day Mount Kinabalu tour includes a variety of activities and is a must-do for anyone visiting Sabah. Highly recommended.

super recommended!! the staff were very helpful and friendly. u can even make payment on the spot which is really convenient. my friend, who has tried paragliding with another company before recommended this one over the first company she went with. they even took photos of me without having to ask and i got the best shot up in the sky! kudos to the team for going the extra mile. highly recommended and i will definitely doing this again!!! 👏🏻

Vše je velmi dobře zařízeno a zorganizováno. Od vyzvednutí až po konec túry. Ubytování v chatě v parku Kinabalu bylo fantastické. Túra byla spíše náročná, zejména ta ve 2:30 ráno na vrchol. Bylo však nutné doplatit průvodci a za dopravu zpět na ubytování, protože byl překročen stanovený čas.

Thank you so much for an incredible trip up Mount Kinabalu. Doing the Walk the Torq route was easily the best part of the climb. The views were unreal and the gear felt completely secure.As a solo hiker, I felt incredibly well taken care of the entire time. A massive thank you to both of my amazing guides! My mountain guide was fantastic at pacing me to the summit, and my via ferrata guide was professional and made me feel 100% safe on the sheer rock face.I had such a memorable experience that if I have the chance to come back, I definitely want to challenge myself with the long Low's Peak Circuit next time. 💪🏻

Mount Sossodikon offers incredibly beautiful views and is great value for money. The ATV ride is a lot of fun. It would be safer for beginners to practice riding before setting off. There's road construction along the way with many engineering vehicles; the mountain road is steep, and there are no guardrails, making it both thrilling and a bit scary. However, the local residents are very friendly and wave as you pass by.
