Mari Mari Cultural Village Tour from Kota Kinabalu

Mari Mari Cultural Village tour

This trip was awesome. Our guide at the village was Nana who was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. It was extremely interesting to visit different tribes homes and sample their food and drink. Nana explained why and how each house was different. Recommend this tour very interesting from start to finish.

Essential Half-Day Kota Kinabalu City Highlights and Museum Tour

Great!

We just had a day in Kota Kinabalu and wanted to see it all in one afternoon which I think we accomplished. Our tour guide, Flo, was so fun. We were able to see the sights and she was patient with all of my pictures. And she even got me to try durian (I would advise against that - ick!). It was a fun and interesting area.
