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!

As a return customer to the same hotel, we are still amazed by the friendly frontline staff and easy-access to the town.

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.

Bongawan river cruise was great~! Though we couldn’t see the long nose monkeys, we saw many long tail monkeys and a baby crocodile! The fireflies were fantastic!! Our tour guide Kelvin is the best photographer and helped us to have great photos!!

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
