We booked a couple of tours with this company and loved both of them. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and we felt well looked after the whole time. On one of our trips a lady from another tour group mentioned to me that she thought our guide was excellent and wished she had booked with Exotic Borneo instead!

I enjoyed ATV ride and dairy farm plan. I rode the ATV for the first time but they taught me well! For Dairy farm, you can feed milk or grass to the calfs. And also you can see Mt.Kinabalu from this farm. Our guider is so nice and took beautiful pictures as same as photographer! He knows about this island well, he was trying to show us wonderful places. Amazing experience.

Located on the Klias Peninsula is the Klias Wetland, a Mangrove Forest Reserve. With the bizarre-looking proboscis monkey gaining as much popularity with the tourists as the orang utan, the Klias Wetland with its large proboscis population is fast becoming the latest ecotourism destination in Sabah. Get those camera, binoculars on stand-by and keep your eyes peeled for the shy creatures in between the branches. As dusk settles in with a sunset, enjoy the sights and sounds in a natural setting as you have a sumptuous village style dinner. Show’s not over yet though, there is one more trip through the mangrove swamp, but this time it is graced by the secret rhythm of fireflies and their flickering lights. However, as much as we hate to disappoint, we are entering a natural habitat where sightings are common, but it is NOT GUARANTEED :)

This theme park is very expensive and foreigners pay whole lot more than Malaysian which i think is discrimina ting. The waterattractions are ok, not that scary or sensantional, there are far better ones actuallly. For that price its too expensive and I wouldn’t return. The other parks are ok. Food is expensive and overall only fast food. People swim in regular clothes which is not allowed. I find that to be disrespectful according to the rules.

we waited almost half hour at the jetty because need to fill in a simple form and had our temperature checked. It was a perfect weather during my visit, and I have a chance to watch the sun setting which is so beautiful and absolutely my favourite part over this short trip. The boat crews very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a nice trip, but it would be better if they provide fruits after dinner served.
