Booking through Klook was pretty fuss free. However, do note that you will receive the booking details only a day before the actual tour.
The driver and guide came on time, even earlier than scheduled. Guide Wan also shared with us some urban tale about Sabah which was interesting.
Unfortunately, we came at the wrong time as it was rainy and cloudy, hence we couldn't take many photos. However, the weather was great. Because our tour group had a few older ones and a child, we asked if we can stop by some places for the meals and they were very cooperative with such requests, great services. Would recommend this listing if ytou would like to have some private tour for your friends and family.

Thanks William for the informative and friendly guide throughout Kundasang, we had a lot of laughter and good times together throughout the time up there. William also took a LOT of pictures of us and shared it with us! However I believe it would have been better if the Rafflesia Garden item be included in the itinerary, and listed as optional if it is optional as people might miss the fine print of paying RM30 for the entry tickets. Still would recommend people to get this package!
