Our Tour Guide Jerry was punctual with good vibes throughout our tour. Although I'm the only one who speaks English and most of the joiners were Chinese, he also explained in English so that I will be able to understand and makes sure that all is good. I had a so much fun and enjoyed the tour. He's also willing to take a picture and video on you. So going as solo joiner would not be difficulty ❤️ Highly recommended for Tourguide Jerry's service! Thank you.

Great and fulfilling trip! We were lucky to see a newly bloomed Rafflesia, and the ATV ride was exciting. The guide explained everything clearly and was very knowledgeable. Most importantly, the Sinalau Bakas was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

The stops were good, lots of new experiences and delicious foods to try, and unique handicraft souvenirs too. The only problem is most of the time the view of Mount Kinabalu is covered by clouds, but it depends on your luck though.

Well-paced itinerary & great communication w/our driver, Mr Lai & tour operator. The private tour which was having a driver for the day who was not a tour guide persay but was helpful in pointing out important landmarks & what to do at each location. Otherwise, it was relatively self-guided which was ok as it was mostly self-explanatory. Be prepared for a long day as Kundasang is quite a distance from KK. We saw the Tamparuli bridge - they had a short intro to local traditional music(donation based)prior to crossing, great for photos & trying the instruments. At Pekan Nabalu, tried local fruits, snacks & shopped for handicraft. Desa Dairy Farm (entry not included Rm10 for locals, Rm20 for non-locals, which included a free carton of milk) is stunning. However, the milking process is at 2pm, which we did not stay to see (there is a good video about it onsite) & one could pay additionally to feed baby cows & goats. Do try the icecream there & Sinalau Bakas otw back! Would highly recommend

It was just the two of us on this trip, but unexpectedly we got a private car! Although the weather didn't allow us to clearly see Mount Kinabalu, the driver was kind enough to share beautiful photos of it with us! He also recommended local specialty fruits to us!

Chinese-speaking guide Michael provided detailed explanations, a great experience! There were also Japanese and Korean people in the group, the interaction was interesting, it's a bit of a shame I'm not proficient in English!

Exploring the base of the tallest mountain in Southeast Asia, feeding fish in a stream, and getting super lucky spotting the Rafflesia, the world’s largest flower that blooms only once every 9 months 🌺😮 Threw in some ATV riding for the adrenaline, then slowed things down at a quaint dairy farm at the foot of the mountain, cows and goats everywhere, cool climate, and honestly felt like New Zealand 🇳🇿🐐

A group of four people can charter the entire car, and the Chinese-speaking driver and tour guide can flexibly adjust according to needs, which is very considerate. They will contact you via WhatsApp before the trip, and confirm the pick-up time, location, and driver's car number the day before. Their proactive communication is very reassuring.
