“Le guide ne vous explique rien, vous passez très peu de temps au parc du mont Kinabalu mais plus à la ferme des vaches ou vous n’avez rien à faire. Le guide vous dépose sans explications et vous demande juste de revenir à cette heure. J’ai payé l’excursion pour passer le plus clair de mon temps dans le van ou la Clim fonctionne de manière approximative et où vous n’avez pas de place pour vos jambes. Le prix qui est demandé est excessif pour l’excursion. A éviter !”

Private day trip from Kota Kinabalu to Kundasang and Kinabalu Park, plus Poring Hot Springs, with guide, tickets, and hotel pickup.
“The tour to Kinabalu Park and the Poring Hot Springs was honestly a bit disappointing. The ratio between driving and actual activities felt excessive – we spent hours in the car for very limited stops, sometimes just 30 minutes after a 2-hour drive. While the landscapes are undeniably beautiful and you’re surrounded by nature, the experience itself felt rushed and not very engaging. Another downside was that the “guide” was more of a driver, and in our case he drove rather recklessly, which made the long drives less enjoyable. Overall, a tour with great natural scenery but poor organization and value.Read more”
