Day 2

- Upon pick up from the hotel lobby, you will be whooshed straight into Sabah’s lush countryside-- with a couple of interesting pitstops along the way for some famous local eats, handmade folk souvenirs, and perhaps a taste of some exotic fruits. The first 1⁄2 hour drive ushers you through scenic landscapes and lush paddy fields laced with rustic local villages and finally into Tamparuli Town. Take a walk on the famous “Jambatan Tamparuli” suspension bridge and soak up the small-town charm. Continue your journey through the mountainous roads winding along the Crocker range for another hour, till the next brief stop at Nabalu Handicraft market. Nabalu is a rustic point perched on the hillside, where the local natives gather to sell local produce, fruits, home grown vegetables, and handicraft souvenirs.

- Depart on another hour’s journey to Poring Hot Spring. Lunch at the local restaurant. After lunch, time for a soothing sulphur bath in the Japanese-styled open-air tubs! Dip in the all-natural mineral-rich hot springs water, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. There is also a cold-water pool nearby for those who prefer a cold dip.

- Your day wraps up with an immersive exploration of Mount Kinabalu’s treetops. The Canopy Treetop Walk invites you to witness the grandeur of a hundred-million-year-old rainforest, from a 175m length walkway suspended 60 meters above lush jangly tangles. Take in the sights and sounds and discover unique rainforest creatures from a bird’s eye view. A 20 minutes hike is needed to reach the Canopy Walkway.

- Transfer to Kundasang and check into a mountain resort. You will notice the change in air temperature at this elevated level. You are free to explore the resort at leisure.

Day 3

- On your 3rd day, you will wake up to a misty morning ushering in views of sun-draped Mount Kinabalu. Birds chirp away while low-hanging clouds blanket the valleys.

- Transfer to the Desa Cattle Farm—A 199hectar stretch of pristine farmland on the foothills of Mt.Kinabalu.

- Cattle graze the green pastures of to provide nearly one million litters of mountain-fresh creamery annually, all while travellers both near and far enjoy the outrageously scenic view that plays backdrop for the daily milking that goes on. You can get close to the cattle; bottle feed the calf’s and have a go at some fresh milk yogurt produce straight off the farm.

- Next up on the day’s agenda - visit to Malaysia’s first ever UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kinabalu National Park. Set at 1,500m above sea level, this 754sq kilometre park features one the Tallest Mountains in all South East Asia as its centre piece - Mount Kinabalu. Rising at 4,095.2m with cloud-hugging peaks that shade the valleys below, the majestic mountain is certainly a sight to behold from Kinabalu National Park.

- Enjoy the refreshing and cooling air as you proceed for a guided walk along the nature trails in the Botanical Garden, to learn more about the Kinabalu Park’s biological treasure trove.

Proceed for lunch at the restaurant in Kinabalu Park. Thereafter, depart back to your hotel in Kota Kinabalu City.
