Tour Details
Private Kinabalu Park with Lunch
This scenic journey winds through quaint villages and lush paddy fields along the Crocker Mountain range, beckoning you with breathtaking views and unique experiences. One stop on our itinerary is the bustling Nabalu Market, where locals peddle home-grown produce, exotic fruits, handcrafted souvenirs and much more. Capture the authentic spirit of Borneo right here, where the culture and passion of its people come alive. Arriving at Kinabalu Park, a noticeable crispness fills the air as you wander through the botanical garden's nature trails. On clear days, the enthralling sight of Mount Kinabalu, the towering giant between New Guinea and the Himalayas, awaits. Kinabalu Park, a haven for biodiversity, boasts around 4,500 plant species, 1,500 species of orchids, 289 bird species, and 290 different butterfly species, many of which are endemic to this region.
After exploring the park, we'll satiate your hunger with a delectable lunch at a local restaurant. From there, we'll embark to another of Borneo's famous attractions, the Poring Hot Spring. This nearby natural hot spring is named after the tall bamboo plant abundant in the area. Soak in the therapeutic, sulphureous water of the Japanese baths, believed by locals to have healing properties. Daring visitors can also test their mettle on the Canopy Walkway, a series of suspension bridges hovering 41 meters above the tropical jungle. This 157-meter walkway offers a bird's eye view of the lush rainforest below, but remember, it requires a 20-minute hike to reach it! Our journey concludes with a comfortable three-hour drive back to Kota Kinabalu, ensuring that you're dropped off right on time.
This tour offers an invigorating blend of natural beauty, local culture, and exhilarating physical activity. Reserve your spot today and experience the magic of Borneo's Kinabalu Park.
