⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a wonderful experience with Amazing Borneo Tours during our trip to Kota Kinabalu! From the very beginning, everything was smooth and well-organised from airport pickup, hotel arrangements, to daily tours and activities. A very special thanks to LC Nathalie, who has been handling us right from the beginning of our booking process until the end of the trip. She was incredibly patient, responsive and professional, even when there were many last-minute changes. We truly appreciate all her effort, understanding, and dedication in making sure everything went perfectly. 🌸 Special thanks also to our tour guide Niel, Clement & Eddy, who took great care of us while we were in KK. They were friendly, attentive, and always willing to help and making our journey even more comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, it was a memorable and smooth trip thanks to the amazing coordination and service from the whole team. Highly recommended for anyone planning a trip to Sabah and we’ll definitely repeat again with Amazing Borneo! ✈️🌴
this market is very expensive even after discount , most of the sellers are not polite and also they dont bargain the prices and that its ok if they dont want , but the most iportant is that market is expensive ..(for example i bougth a bracelet at the begging told me 15 myr and without to ask told me if i like it i can take for 10 myr - the same bracelet i found out of this market for 7 myr - my opinion is that the only reseon to visit this place to buy last time presants becouse in one place you can find everything. Dont waste your time to this place

They were amazing! Really helped us out with our offsite event, they tried to accommodate to all our requirements. Definitely impressed and grateful!
It is OK - nothing all that interesting except for the bustle of a busy market - but it is a pleasant enough spot to wander around.

Hi F9916OPjackys! Thank you so much for your 5 star review! Great to know you had a amazing experience during your holiday with us recently. Take care and see you again next time! Best Regards!
Wanted to write a review about this tour, as I had not seen a lot about it, prior to my booking this 4 hour visit to KK. First of all, communications with Carol were very good. Everything was pre-arranged and the tour for our group of 19 was paid for, prior to the date. Despite our short port stop, our guide, Luk, did an outstanding job of providing a nice overview of KK. She spoke very good English and was very knowledgeable about the area.The Sabah Museum was excellent. We were also able to see Tun Mustafa, the state mosque and a Chinese temple, along with our interesting visit to the Filipino market. Our driver was safe and capable; the bus comfortably accommodated our large group. I would highly recommend Amazing Borneo tours and Luk, particularly if you have a short time in KK.
Hi mtcrawford, Great that everything went well during your short visit here in KK. Carol and Luk are indeed very good in what they are doing. Customer satisfaction and safety during the trip is our goal and we are happy that this was achieved. Thank you very much for your 5Star review and we hope to be able to accommodate your trip in KK again in the future. Cheers !
