Introduction:
Our Sabah adventure is a must for wildlife and outdoor lovers. There is so
much to see in a short space of time as we show you some amazing wildlife and
rainforests, clear blue seas, unspoilt islands and Mount Kinabalu - Borneo's
highest mountain.
We start with a visit to the World Heritage site of Kinabalu National park and
make the overnight ascent of the magnificent Mount Kinabalu. Two days are then
spent viewing the prolific wildlife in Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary, venturing
in search of probiscus and silver leaf monkeys, wild orang utan, birds and other
wildlife. Next, Sandakan, with time to spend on Selingan Island, where in season,
giant sea turtles arrive at night to lay their eggs. After that we visit Sepilok
sanctuary to observe the orang-utans in their natural habitat in this vast jungle
refuge. We make a visit to the Australian War Memorial, and from there we return
to Kota Kinabalu.
Mount Kinabalu - Important Information:
Any references to availability or non availability of
tours which include the trek to the summit of Mt Kinabalu, listed beside the
departure dates on our website, should be treated as a guide only. Whilst Kumuka
endeavours to keep this information as current as possible please keep in mind
that the availability of beds at the Resthouses on the mountain is limited,
and can change rapidly, and we cannot guarantee availability for the trek.
To be permitted to climb to the summit of Mt Kinabalu, you must have
a confirmed bed at one of the Resthouses, and the number of beds is obviously
limited. Whilst we will endeavour to organise this for you, this is subject
to availability and is not guaranteed. At certain times of year, beds are available
within a few weeks of departure, however, in peak season these can be sold out
several months in advance. Within 2 months of a departure, all bookings are
on a request basis only, and it cannot be guaranteed that we will be able to
confirm the booking.
Before we can apply for your place on the mountain, we will require your full
name, passport number, nationality and date of birth, as well as the tour deposit,
or full payment if the tour departs within 30 days.
In the event that spaces are unavailable, your travel consultant will advise
you of any alternatives. If you are considering a tour that includes the trek
to the summit of Mt Kinabalu book early to avoid disappointment. This information
is correct at the time of writing.
