Day 2 Kota Kinabalu / Tamparuli Town / Nabalu Market / Desa Cow Farm / Kundasang Upon pick up from the hotel lobby, you will be whooshed straight into Sabah's lush countryside.

Nabalu is a rustic point perched on the hillside, where the local natives gather to sell local produce, fruits, homegrown vegetables and handicraft souvenirs. Enjoy lunch at the local restaurant. Your next agenda will be visiting Desa Cow Farm. When you see the roads grow narrow along the way and the landscape gives your rear-view mirror licks of fresh green sceneries, the 199-hectare stretch of pristine farmland on the foothills of Mount Kinabalu means you have reached the Desa Cattle Farm! Cattle graze the green valley pastures to provide nearly one million litres of mountain-fresh milk annually, all while travellers both near and far enjoy the outrageously scenic view that plays the backdrop to this dairy farm. You can get close to the cattle, bottle feed the calves, and enjoy fresh milk or yoghurt produced straight off the farm. Then, transfer to Kundasang and check into a mountain resort.

The Canopy Treetop Walk invites you to witness the grandeur of a hundred-million-year-old rainforest from a 175 m-long walkway suspended 60 meters above lush jungly tangles.

C Companion48072731813 We are a group of 11 that took part in the 4D3N trip, including Kundasang and Kota Kinabalu. All of us were WOW-ed and had a memorable journey. Our tour guide, Joel, is knowledgeable. His passion for storytelling and attention to detail made every moment a treasure trove of discovery, turning mere sights into unforgettable memories. Every location we visit makes us learn more about this beautiful Sabah. We added two additional locations to our original package, the island hoping and Mari Mari Cultural Village, which added great experiences to our journey. Mari Mari Cultural Village is highly recommended as it allows us to experience the real life of the local Kadazaan and how they used to live. Thank you, Amazing Borneo, for this fantastic trip, as well as our tour guide Joel & captain Eddy for such a wonderful journey.

In between Anthony was very responsive and thorough in answering my queries. He even help to coordinate some last minute tours such as Maragang hill trekking and Klias evening River cruise. We particularly like the North Borneo sunset dinner cruise. The sunset view was fantastic. Everything went on very well. The guides for the tours like Gavin, Joel and Reynold were very attentive and courteous throughout the trips. Amy Ong and front reception Anther were also very helpful. Our trip to KK was very well taken care of from all staff from Amazing Borneo tours. Salutations.

L Laura Lee We are extremely pleased and happy with our entire trip from Kota Kinabalu to Kundasang, including Mt Kinabalu Park. The four-day journey was amazing and very well organized, and we were impressed. Joel, our driver cum tour guide was such a pleasant person who shared the rich cultures, and all the knowledge he had of Kota Kinabalu during our trip was priceless. Joel was also an excellent driver who took care of us during the road trip to ensure our safety and well-being were not compromised.
