Review Body: One of the most special parts of the trip for me was getting to spend almost an entire day with the locals in Kiulu village. It didn’t feel like a staged tourist activity at all, it genuinely felt like we were being welcomed into their lives and community. June, our guide even brought us to Winnie’s dad’s farm, who gave us the opportunity to try rubber tapping, which made the experience feel so personal and meaningful. At first everyone was a little shy, but as the day went on they slowly became more comfortable with us and it was honestly so sweet. By the end of it, it felt less like a tour and more like we were all just one big family spending time together. Those genuine moments and connections are what made the experience so memorable for me, and it’s something I’ll carry with me for a long time.

Review Body: I’ll always hold this experience close to my heart. The warmth and enthusiasm from the locals made me feel so welcomed, almost like I truly belonged there. Our host, June, was incredibly knowledgeable about the village, as well as Sabah’s culture and history, and it was such a pleasure listening to her stories. The rubber tapping experience was especially interesting, as I’ve always been curious about how people used to do it back when rubber tapping was a major economic activity in Singapore. We ended the experience by making our own dalai bead accessories, which we got to bring home as souvenirs. Overall, it was a truly eye-opening and memorable experience.

Review Body: This was an unforgettable experience that touched our hearts. The locals were so passionate about their culture and sharing it with us through the music, dances and food. They made us feel right at home throughout the experience. We were introduced on the traditional food and music which was a truly unique experience. It was hard to leave as we all got to bond. June and her team was very attentive and made us all of us felt comfortable. Her sharings of the Dusun culture was very insightful. If you’re keen to learn more about the Dusun villagers and culture, this is the one. ☝🏼

Review Body: Did a day trip from Kota Kinabalu that combined white water rafting with a jungle survival experience in the afternoon. Staff were lovely, helpful and attentive. All were chatty and personable - definitely did not feel like we were just another random customer they had to deal with - very much an interactive experience.

Review Body: Our tour group had the wonderful opportunity to experience June’s cooking class. We stopped by a market where she explained the various local wares & then stepped us through making traditional meals. June & her assistants made this one of the highlights of our tour & the return to the community makes it even more enriching.
