I highly recommend this trip. From the beginning, the other party's contact and answers to questions were clear and timely. The driver who picked us up on the first day had a good service attitude and was friendly and professional. Our guide Harry for the mountain climbing trip was super awesome 👍, patient and careful, and a master at taking photos. If you can choose, you can look for him!

We visited Desa Farm and tried paragliding in Ranau. Although the paragliding was delayed due to wind condition, it was definitely worth the wait. The views from above were breathtaking, and as a first-time experience, it was unforgettable. The staff were professional and ensured everything was safe. Desa Farm itself was also a lovely visit. I highly recommend this adventure in Sabah!

I recently had the pleasure of being guided by Michelle during my tour of Kota Kinabalu, and I must say, it was an absolutely wonderful experience. From the start, Michelle demonstrated exceptional professionalism, care, and attention to detail. She was not only polite but also very approachable and made everyone feel comfortable throughout the journey. Michelle's driving skills were top-notch, and we felt completely safe with her behind the wheel. She introduced us to many of the most attractive and must-see sites in the area, and her knowledge of the local culture and history was impressive. Additionally, she recommended some fantastic local dishes that truly enhanced the overall experience. One of the highlights of our tour was Michelle's flexibility and responsibility. She went above and beyond to help us find the blooming Rafflesia, which was an unforgettable experience. Her dedication to making sure we had the best time was evident in everything she did. Overall, it was an amazing tour, and Michelle truly made it special. I highly recommend her to anyone planning a trip to Kota Kinabalu!

The tour guide Xiao Zhang is professional and interesting. The itinerary along the way is well planned. The ranch, tree suspension bridge, hot spring foot bath, lunch are included. It is very pleasant to get along with the group members.

Our tour guide Xiao Yang arranged everything very well. We saw a spectacular sea of clouds when we were climbing the mountain, and we were very lucky to see the appearance of Mount Kinabalu. We had delicious ice cream at the cattle farm and saw them milking cows. We also went hiking and walking on the suspension bridge, which was fun. Finally, we ate the aboriginal set meal at our own expense.

I highly recommend Kevin, a tour guide who can speak both Chinese and English. He is also very honest and always answers questions. He can help and solve many problems encountered by tourists. Some are not included in the itinerary, and he will help us as much as possible. He is really a very high-quality tour guide. The itinerary arrangement ~ Before departure, he will tell us what the itinerary and route are for today, and then on the way or at any time, he will tell us what we are doing now. In short, the introduction is very detailed and the whole journey is very pleasant. Push push~
