20th June 2025, family and I having this trip, overall is enjoyable especially having tour guide Jeff who is a biophilic person. We are the only group thus able to go with our own pace. The weather was bad in the week we arrived kota kinabalu, so Jeff proposed to switch the sequence of Kinabalu Park and Poring Hot Spring as hot spring there is small hiking part where not suitable for raining. The morning started with sunny day and we managed to enjoy the small hiking with hot spring. Lunch we took opposite hot spring, malay restaurant with chinese style cooking, personally not use to the taste. The weather turned bad when visiting Desa farm. When arrived Kinabalu park(last point), it is raining, we had a short stay here. Probably will visit Kinabalu park if here again. For rafflesia it is not included, but Jeff managed to find one for us to visit. Before trip, Jeff did informed us some entrance fees will be needed, including the rafflesia. Thank you Jeff once again.

I was visiting Kota Kinabalu with my spouse and wanted to see Mt Kinabalu. Booked the trip because I wanted to avoid the hassle of renting and driving the car. It was a wonderfully organised tour with Tommy who drove us to different spots and gave us a guided tour. The man was knowledgeable guided us well and maintained a really fun and humorous environment. He was sweet and offered us his umbrella when it started raining. The views of the mountain are spectacular. Totally worth it. The Pouring park was also a lot of fun.

I really like this experience. The journey is long but it is highly recommended. Guide Li is very professional and humorous. He introduced the whole process in both Chinese and English. He waited for our dishes to be served before eating. I will join the itinerary led by Guide Li again if I have the chance.

The tour guide Michael was very good. He introduced the history of Sabah and various attractions, introduced the plants and animals along the way in Mount Kinabalu National Park, and also took us to the Rafflesia flower, which we paid extra for on a voluntary basis. He introduced the physiological cycle and characteristics of the Rafflesia flower in detail. At the end of the trip, he even took the initiative to suggest that we get off near the weekend night market.
