THE ESSENCE OF SABAH
4D/3N

Spreading across the northern tip of Borneo is the state of Sabah offering endless options for fun and adventure. Romantically known as the Land Below the Wind, Sabah treasures some of the world’s oldest rainforest and more than 30 different races, making Sabah Malaysia’s most diverse state. Here you’ll find home away from home.

Trek up the Mt. Kinabalu National park searching for carnivorous plants, meet friendly Orang Utans in the world’s biggest sanctuary of its kind and cruise Sabah’s longest river looking for the strange proboscis monkey, pygmy elephants and other wildlife.

Sabah is quite simply Borneo at its best!

S.I.C – Seat In Coach

A S.I.C tour stands for Seat in Coach Tour which means you’ll be sharing an air conditioned van/bus with other fellow travelers with an English speaking tour guide. A S.I.C tour is a great way to share your travelling stories with others and make new friends.

P.V.T – Private

A P.V.T tour stands for a Private Tour which means that from your arrival until your departure you’ll be fully escorted by your personal tour guide and driver, on your own personal air conditioned van. On a W.G.T private tour you won’t be mixed with other travelers when sightseeing and transferring except in some cases where a private basis isn’t obtainable. Upon availability a foreign speaking guide can be requested. A private package is more flexible and great for groups of friends, families, newlyweds couples etc…
