The actual town of Kota Kinabalu is not very interesting, it got flattened in WWII.

To do:

 

a. Snorkelling on the off shore islands

b. Visit floating village

c. Walking tour of Mount Kinabalu (over 4000 meters high)

d. Oran Utan Sanctuary

 

Visit Sandakan (old town intakt), need to fly which takes about 45 minutes from Kota Kinabalu.

a. Visit town

b. Japanese POW camp and site of death march

(an eerie silence prevailed there during our visit)

c. Oran Utan Sanctuary

d. Jungle walks

thank you!

I'm assuming they'll pck up drop off from cruise port?[/quot

 

They say they do. We are waiting for them to tell us where the pick up point will be. They will tell us about a week before the tour date. We will just have to wait and see when and where.

There used to be one at the Shangri-la Ras Ria out of Kota KInabalu. But I think it has now closed as the animals were ready to be moved to the next stage of rehabilitation in Sandakan.

We had a wonderful holiday in Sabah and booked a three night tour as well as a day tour with Borneo ecotours. We were very happy with them. We were staying in a jungle camp up the river when one night David Attenborough and his entourage arrived for dinner. But back in Kota Kinabalu, we had a very interesting day tour to Mt Kinabalu and Poring Hot Springs.
