Fantastic 5.0
This ended up being one of the highlights of my trip to Kota Kinabalu. I’m not a cyclist, so I was a little nervous about riding for three hours, but our guide Christian made everything super comfortable. He adjusted the bike for me, kept a pace that matched our group, and let us take breaks whenever we needed. Along the way, he shared stories about the local history, culture, and even pointed out unique fruits. He also took amazing photos throughout the ride. It’s such a fun way to see the main landmarks, stay active, and explore the city from a different perspective. Christian is honestly the best tour/cycle guide. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend!!

Fantastic Kota Kinabalu City Tour! The tour company contacted us clearly via WhatsApp in advance, so everything was easy and stress-free. Our guide, Ms. Yee, was incredibly friendly and cheerful! Although our English is not perfect, she used a translation app, gestures, and lots of smiles to communicate with us. My wife and I had such a fun time thanks to her! Our driver, Mr. Max, was also very professional, with safe and smooth driving throughout the tour. The tour is short but covers the major landmarks of Kota Kinabalu efficiently. A perfect introduction to the city and highly recommended for first-time visitors! Thank you, Ms. Yee and Mr. Max! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Saw proboscis monkeys and so many fireflies. We had bad luck and missed the sunset, but there were countless stars at night. The drive was a bit long, but totally worth it. The tour guide, John, also speaks Chinese!

The female masseuse who provided my 2-hour hot stone massage on October 5, 2026, at 6:00 PM, truly offered excellent service. I felt incredibly comfortable after the massage. Highly recommended!

Enjoy a safe and fun stand-up paddleboarding experience at Tanjung Aru Beach, home to one of the world's most famous sunsets! We highly recommend stand-up paddleboarding in Sabah! First, a big shout-out to our coach! The coach was very responsible, dedicated, and humorous in their teaching. They provided careful guidance throughout the process and paid attention to everyone's safety, making our first stand-up paddleboarding experience completely stress-free and incredibly fun! After placing our order, the travel agency promptly contacted us to confirm the itinerary. The staff were friendly and patient, and the pick-up was very punctual. The entire process made us feel very reassured. The biggest fear when traveling is not being able to reach someone after booking an itinerary or uncertainty about pick-up, but this time, we had none of those issues. From booking and communication to pick-up and the on-site experience, everything was very reassuring. Stand-up paddleboarding is truly a blast!

Good experience in Tiya. Is located in 1st floor KK Times Square. Welcome by friendly receptionist. My hubby and I were attended with two masseurs no.20&39. Both experienced.
