Begin your adventure with a pick-up from your hotel lobby, where you'll meet your friendly tour guide for the day.
The journey kicks off with a 1.5-hour drive from Kota Kinabalu to Nabalu Town, home to the Nabalu Handicraft & Souvenir Market. Here, you can browse for unique handicrafts and souvenirs or sample local snacks and fruits from the food stalls. Don’t miss the chance to capture stunning panoramic views of Mount Kinabalu from a nearby observation platform.
A 40-45 minute drive from Nabalu takes you to the Desa Cattle Dairy Farm, fondly known as Sabah’s “Little New Zealand.” Nestled against the majestic backdrop of Mount Kinabalu, this farm offers picturesque scenery and fun activities like feeding the calves and goats. Enjoy their fresh dairy products, including milk and gelato, while taking memorable photos.
After a 30-minute drive, arrive at the Alpaca Club in Kundasang, home to Sabah's first and only alpacas. Spend time with these fluffy animals and even hand-feed them fresh grass.
Following your visit to the Alpaca Club, you may want to stop at a local resort restaurant for a delightful lunch (at own expense). Feel free to ask your driver for recommendations on where to go!
Next, make a brief visit to Kinabalu National Park, Malaysia’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site and part of the Kinabalu UNESCO Global Geopark. Take in the crisp, cool air and snap photos at the UNESCO signboard before heading to your next stop.
On your way back to Kota Kinabalu, enjoy a fun city tour featuring three key destinations:
- The Art Attic, a curated lifestyle marketplace and café showcasing local crafts, furniture, homeware, gifts, and fine art by Sabahan artisans.
- The Sabah Museum, where you’ll delve into Sabah’s rich history and explore the Heritage Village, which displays traditional houses built by various indigenous communities of the region.
- The stunning Sabah City Mosque, famously known as the Floating Mosque. Its impressive dome is the largest of its kind in Malaysia, making it a prime spot for photography.
End your day with a return to your hotel, taking back memories of a journey filled with culture, nature, and local delights.
