Joining Forces with Our Partners
1. Sabah Travel
SabahTravel.com is an online multi-tour operator platform for booking travel services operates on a B2B2C model. The platform grants its users an immediate access to all licensed local tour operators in Sabah. The primary goal is to unite Sabah's tour, activity, accommodation, and transport providers on one platform to enhance the visibility of the state's beauty to travellers from across the globe. With SabahTravel.com, travellers can conveniently book multiple services from different operators in one booking, at any time and location. This streamlined approach makes choosing Sabah as a travel destination more accessible and hassle-free for tourists.
How Do We Work Hand in Hand:
Sabah's local tourism products and services have struggled to attract travellers due to the lack of proper online presence and difficulties related to booking and payment processes, resulting in limited travel choices. SabahTravel.com has bridged the gap between target markets and local operators by promoting display operators and dynamic pricing, ensuring equal competition opportunities for every local operator. Moreover, start-up businesses can easily get on track with SabahTravel.com's support, as it offers a zero sign-up fee and no hidden costs. For a minimal processing fee, SabahTravel.com covers streamlined services such as a seamless booking process, secured digital payment, professional marketing services, and dedicated customer support for local operators. SabahTravel.com also promotes community-based tourism, allowing local communities to showcase their unique culture, traditions, and lifestyles to travellers, thereby providing authentic and sustainable experiences. By partnering with SabahTravel.com, Amazing Borneo indirectly contributes to the opportunities for community-based tourism, leading to the growth of the local tourism industry. SabahTravel.com provides a level playing field for every local operator to showcase their products and services, and its support for community-based tourism is a vital step towards creating a sustainable and responsible tourism industry in Sabah.

How Do We Work Hand in Hand:
At Amazing Borneo, sustainability is not just a buzzword, as we try to integrate sustainability as one of the core values of our team-building services. Our joint efforts aim to offer a unique opportunity to our guests, enabling them to incorporate charitable activities into their team-building itineraries. By integrating these activities into team building, we do not only encourage our customers to have fun, but also enable them to give back to the local community. They can contribute to a noble cause and strengthen their team bonds simultaneously, making our team-building offerings even more meaningful. This aligns with our ultimate goal of providing unforgettable and impactful experiences for our customers while also making a positive impact on the environment and society.

3. Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort & Spa
Set along the coastline of Tuaran, Sabah, Shangri-La Rasa Ria is a leading resort known for its nature-inspired hospitality, responsible operations, and commitment to sustainable tourism. The resort has been recognised with the ASEAN Sustainable Tourism Award (ASTA) 2026-2028 for Best Sustainable Rural Tourism Product of Malaysia under the Eco-Friendly Tourist Attraction category, as well as the ASEAN MICE Venue Award 2026-2028 for excellence in sustainable events.
How Do We Work Hand in Hand:
As a sustainability partner of Shangri-La Rasa Ria, Amazing Borneo supports the resort’s responsible tourism efforts through a dedicated tour desk stationed at the resort. Through this partnership, resort guests are connected with curated tours and experiences in the surrounding areas, with priority given to nearby destinations, locally operated tours, and low-impact activities that align with Sabah’s natural environment.
This approach helps reduce unnecessary long-distance travel while ensuring that tourism spending benefits local communities around the resort. Amazing Borneo also incorporates digital booking processes at the tour desk to minimise paper usage, streamline guest enquiries, and reduce operational waste. By combining local-first experiences with digitalised travel services, the partnership supports a more practical and sustainable way for guests to explore Sabah.
