In February 2020 I visited Sabah, my starting point (base) was Kota Kinabalu (KK) and my intention was to make a round trip around Sabah region using motorbike. Basically, all bike rental shops are located near the Suria Sabah shopping mall. Although my intention was to visit Gogo Sabah (best online reviews), as I approached I was almost immediately "kidnapped" by its competition that was offering their bikes. These people did not speak proper english, the bikes that were offered were inferior compared to GoGo Sabah's and when discussing my travelling plan - they were really discouraging me to take the route through the jungle (south route between Tawau and Keningau) - they described it as dangerous route not suitable for motorbikes (they did not want me to ride their motorbike on this route). They were quite pushy to make reservation and pay deposit... Luckily enough, I also visited GoGo Sabah shop and the approach was completely different - it was 100% professional. I spoke with Daniel who honestly explained me what kind of bikes they offered and we very quickly found a bike that was suitable fo my purposes. In addition, Daniel provided very recent info on the route through the jungle (south route between Tawau and Keningau) and according to him this route was OK to travel (I was explained that there was a lack of petrol stations and I got a map where locations of petrol stations were clearly indicated) and he also provided very valuable travel information - all 100% accurate. During my trip, I wanted to extend the rental by few days - I experienced very prompt, positive response. GoGo Sabah is really trustworthy and good with handling customers and if I ever be in need of renting motorbike in Sabah I will use their services again.

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 :)

Inclusions: Afternoon tea, Buffet dinner, Hotel pickup and drop-off (selected hotels only), Transport by air-conditioned minivan / coach, English speaking guide

Exclusions: Tipping (optional), Personal expenses, Personal Travel Insurance, Any Items not mentioned.

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!
