Fuss-free day trip with our tour guide Jeff! Jeff handles all the entrance/attraction tickets + all items inclusive of the tour package. We just chill and follow along~ Manage to catch a glimpse of Mount KK peak before the mountain was covered by the clouds at Nabalu! Feed the calves and tried out the ice cream at Desa farm. Did a small walk up the Sosodikon hill to have a view of Kundasang~ Finally had a small photo taking session at the sky mirror (literally 4 panels of mirror put together). Very relaxing day~

We went on a day trip to Kundasang. Alex drove us. He was not only talkative but also took good care of us and our 11-month-old baby. He also helped us take beautiful photos. We asked the company to provide a baby car seat. In addition, we changed some of the itinerary because we didn't want to go to the suspension bridge. As long as it could fit in the time, he arranged it for us. He also took us to eat delicious roasted wild boar meat. Thank him so much... The most important thing is that it was very easy to talk to him along the way. He also shared the knowledge that a tour guide should have so that we know where the place is and what the story is. I would like to continue to ask him to take me if I have the opportunity to come again in the future 😊

Tommy, the tour leader, was very helpful and answered all my questions. October is the rainy season in Sabah, and we have been worried about the arrival of heavy rains. Although it was a pity that I couldn't stay longer in the mountains, I finally reached the pasture, the market, the top of the hill, and the Rabbit Park.
