Amazing & memorable holiday in Kota Kinabalu

Anthony from Amazing Borneo customized my group’s 9-day 8-night tour to Kota Kinabalu and Kundasang. Itineraries for each day were well planned & scheduled with detailed information on what to wear/bring for each trip. For 4 days, we had the opportunity to travel via one of their Vellfire – very comfortable especially for long-distance travel to Kudasang and Kudat.

There was very clear and advanced (2 days ahead of schedule) communication between Amazing Borneo and our group.

The tour guide cum driver assigned to us was Joel, a knowledgeable, informative, responsible, patient and caring guide who often went the extra mile to ensure our comfort, safety and enjoyment.

Here are some highlights of our trip:

“TOP OF THE WORLD” SUNRISE LEISURE HIKE: A rugged hiking trail with rocky terrain with concrete steps that leads to the peak at 278m above sea level. The age range of my group of ladies is 64 to 75 years old. We made it to the top at 6:15 am after trekking for almost 1 hour. Viewing the sunset was worth what felt like a climb with a million steps. As advised by the guide, the use of hiking poles definitely enabled us to have smoother ascend and descend.

Poring Canopy Walk offers opportunities to view the majestic trees. My group was fortunate to catch glimpses of Bornean White-Breaded Gibbon and Bornean Pygmy Squirrel.

The highlight of our tour was the unexpected opportunity to view two Rafflesia in bloom!

Overall, my group of five was very pleased with how Amazing Borneo made our visit to Kota Kinabalu an amazing and memorable holiday. We are now considering Amazing Borneo for our next tour to Sandakan.

Communication has been brilliant

Communication has been brilliant. I had to reorganise my tour shortly before it commenced, which is normally impossible, but because I had proof of ongoing flights and commitments, the agency passed this on to the organisers on my behalf and got it approved. They’ve been really helpful, and I can’t wait to commence the tour in less than two weeks’ time! Thanks a lot for your help!

The booking experience was good

The booking experience was good. Louisa was very helpful. She was so patient and tried very hard to find a suitable diving tour for me. Yee Harng was so efficient in letting me settle the booking online. I really appreciated their assistance. I will definitely recommend your company to my friends if they travel to Sabah.

This company is your way to go

We just booked our Borneo trip with Amazing Borneo Tours and their agent, Anthony. We’ll be going in June, and I’ll share another review then. For now, I just want to rate our booking experience - it was just fabulous! Anthony has been responding super fast via WhatsApp and Email; he tailor-made our 12-day itinerary for us, gave advice on accommodation and activities and has been such a great help in setting up this trip. If you are looking for an individualized Borneo itinerary based on your interests and preferences, this company is your way to go.

EDIT: We just returned from our trip. Everything went super smooth. Even when our domestic flight had a 2-hour delay, I was able to stay in touch with the agency and their pick-up service, who ensured they would be waiting for us at the airport in Kota Kinabalu. I highly recommend Amazing Borneo Tours. Once again, shout out to Anthony for his individualized and very attentive service.
