About the Location

Nabalu
Nabalu is home to a vibrant local market where you can find handmade crafts, fresh produce, and unique delicacies like “buah tarap” and “kuih cincin.” Thanks to the dedicated lookout point, it’s also one of the best spots in Sabah to marvel at Mount Kinabalu and the surrounding mountains

Kundasang
Kundasang, a peaceful haven surrounded by rolling hills and lush greenery, is a favourite destination for both local and international travellers. Here, you’ll find the famous Desa Cattle Dairy Farm, also known as "Little New Zealand," offering fresh dairy treats and a breathtaking view of Mount Kinabalu. Another highlight is the Alpaca Club, home to Sabah’s first and only alpacas, making it a unique stop for children and animal lovers.

Kota Kinabalu
As Sabah’s capital city, Kota Kinabalu offers a rich mix of exciting activities and cultural experiences. A cultural tour here might include the Art Attic, a creative hub blending local craft, art, and a cosy café; the Sabah Museum, where you can learn more of the state’s history and heritage; and the Sabah City Mosque, an architectural masterpiece that’s both serene and awe-inspiring.
