Things to do in Sabah

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.

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

Handsome Jeff was a very friendly guide!!He was very knowledgeable about Malaysia and the countries of his guests and shared many stories with us.We had a great time with him and would recommend him to everyone( ◠‿◠ )

Excellent tour! We were guided by Kelvin who was very informative and helpful. Communication pre-tour and pick up/drop-off were seamless. Thankfully we were able to see families of both the proboscis monkey and long-tailed macaque on our trip today (however, these sightings cannot be guaranteed as these are wild animals). The Borneo sunset is stunning and the sky mirror effect photos are a must. Food and drink provided were simple but delicious. Would highly recommend this tour.

It was a very fun trip to two different islands. the tour guide was very nice and have very clear responsible communication with everyone in my group.

Perfect Day, perfect weather even in october. a bit hot but views was good.. and the snorkeling was crazy because one of the crew members was a heavily talented underwater photographer and he was working very very hard.. staying underwater for long minutes to take everyone's videos

Only issue was the food. A bit average. But the views were nice and the beaches were also very clean. lots of fishes to see. they also provided snorkeling gear.

Highly recommend. The snorkeling tour is very professional and nice.Firstly, we took a boat to Mengalum Island and enjoyed the beach there. About 11:00AM, we went to two beautiful snorkeling spots in total. There were all kinds of fish in both places, and we also saw starfish and octopuses🐙.After lunch, just enjoyed chill time on the beach🏖️. I had a very wonderful and memorable experience in Mengalum Island. Happy new year and all the best wishes to the one who is reading the review😬
