We were lucky to have William to be our guide and driver for three tours of Amazing Borneo. William speaks excellent English, he is polite and cheerful. Most importantly, he is so knowledgeable about wildlife. When we visited the botanical garden in Kinabalu Park, he spotted even the teeny tiny species of orchid, which was quite amazing. He explained the characteristics of different species in full detail. Service of Amazing Borneo is also remarkable. We changed our plan in last minute and the staff accommodated us even she was on leave. They communicate with us by WhatsApp efficiently. Highly recommend!
Everything’s so well organized and impressive journey. Special thanks to LPC activity supported by James. His guide was so amazing and I could experience unforgettable moments here.
The scenery are marvelous. Majestic Mount Kinabalu Sabah view is just marvelous. The tour guide i.e. Mr William Captain is excellent 👍
Hi Voyage44573852105, Your feedback about our customer service team brightened our day! We're dedicated to providing top-notch assistance, and we're glad we could assist you. If you ever have any further questions or concerns, feel free to get in touch!
Grandis Hotel is in a perfect location, adjoining with Surius Mall. Walking distance to the food stalls. Coconut smoothies a must have and kaya toast with butter as well. Island hopping a great way to escape from the mainland mayhem. Grab (Uber) convenient way to get around town. Hiring a driver to Kundasung
Hi Alvin F! We're grateful for your glowing review. It's rewarding to know that you had an incredible time exploring Borneo. See you again soonest!
Smooth and well planned tour, accommodating and suitable for elderly. Spacious and comfortable bus with friendly Chinese speaking tour guide (Tan). Seamless booking experience with sales person Anthony Wong as well. Would highly recommend.
Amazing guild, nice tour, friendly for the kids. My kids love it visiting the nature park at mount Kinabalu and feeding the cows with milk and grass.
Hi A2476POalext, Thank you for your 5 star review! We're glad that you and your family had an enjoyable trip with us. We hope to welcome you again with more family friendly tours. Till then, stay safe always!
The Rumah Terbalik experience was very mediocre except for the photo which they took for us and made into a fridge magnet. We liked the rest of the tour. The Nabalu Market is interesting and bustling with tourists, the view to see the Mt. Kinabalu was good but it was too cloudy so unable to see 100%. We enjoyed the Kinabalu Park visit where we got to see the foot of the mountain and the lodge accommodation which we came across looks presentable for a mountain-stay experience. Lunch was sumptuous and good at the Pine Resorts Restaurant, we had 2 vegetable dishes, 1 chicken dish, 1 prawn dish and a large bowl of soup with rice. After that we proceeded to the Desa Cow Farm which looked pretty much like the "Little New Zealand" as advertised. Good experience looking at the cow milking area, the barns and the calf feeding area with lots of photos. A very good experience overall and the tour guide Neil from Amazing Borneo Tours did a very good job and is also a very safe driver.
Hi Bernard7571, Thank you for your review! Your feedback from the trip is certainly very insightful and would help us to create better experience for our guest in the future. At Amazing Borneo providing a safe trip enjoyable trip is definitely one of our biggest commitments, we will certainly give credit to Neil for a job well done 👍👍 Until next time, stay safe always!
We went first at Rumah Terbalik, at first we are amazed with an attraction like this. It was a great experience with my family, we had so much fun taking pictures outside and enjoy the view. Next, we went to Desa Dairy Farm, even though it's our 3rd time there, we still love it. The pick up was on time we didn't have any trouble about it, also our driver is very kind and you can chitchat with him and ask questions about the place. All in all thanks to Amazing Borneo for this AMAZING experience. ❤️

Our drivers are well informed and well trained on how to make our guests' experiences memorable, informative, and enjoyable. We hope to see you travelling with us again in the future!

It was overall an amazing & extremely fun experience! I will surely go back here for another fun experience! I would highly suggest Amazing Borneo for any excursions because they are reliable, have a clear schedule, and give us enough time to snap pictures and explore about at our leisure.
Hi georgejcnt! Thank you so much for the 5-stars review! We are glad to know that you had an amazing and fun experience during your trip. We hope to see you traveling with us again in the near future! Until then, we wish you all the best and stay safe. Cheers!
Beautiful park. Tour started on time and went smoothly. However, our tour guide spoke limited English so he did not have much history or information to share. Condition of vehicle was also not the best. That said, we still had a great time!
