Itinerary

The tour meets in Kota Kinabalu (“KK" for short), the capital city of the Malaysian state of Sabah. We will pick you up from the airport and transfer you to our tour hotel in the city. In the evening we convene for a trip meeting and welcome dinner.
We fly to Sabah’s east coast and begin our cycling journey. Our inaugural ride takes us past palm oil plantations to the edge of civilization at the Tabin Wildlife Reserve. We’ll have our first chance to spot wildlife during an afternoon jeep safari.
This morning we head into the jungle by bike, visiting a mineral-rich mud volcano and a cascading waterfall. In the afternoon, you can enjoy a complimentary herbal foot soak and mud facial before we embark on a night safari for a chance to spot nocturnal wildlife.
We cycle out of Tabin Wildlife Reserve and then transfer west to the village of Bilit. In the afternoon we enjoy a cruise down the meandering Kinabatangan River to (hopefully!) spot long-nosed monkeys and other wildlife along the banks.
In the morning we cycle on paved roads through the countryside filled with palm oil plantations. In the afternoon we visit a world-renowned orangutan rehabilitation center for a hopeful chance to see these endangered primates eat & play.
Another day and another chance to see more primates in the wild! This morning we’ll visit the Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary for a chance to see these blobby-nosed creatures up close. After a transfer to Telupid, we enjoy a late afternoon ride through the rural heart of Sabah.
Our morning ride takes us along trails of an infamous WW2 death march while, in the afternoon, we cycle amidst terraced tea fields in the highlands of Ranau. We spend the night at an organic tea estate.
Participate in a tour of the Sabah organic tea factory before cycling through the countryside to the foothills of Mount Kinabalu. We spend the afternoon in Poring, a natural area renowned for its thermal hot springs and rainforest canopy walkway.
After a mostly uphill 15 km ride to the hill station of Kundasang, we enjoy views of Mount Kinabalu. Standing at 95 meters (13,435 feet) above sea level, this is Southeast Asia’s tallest mountain, and we’ll see it from its most photogenic side.
We trade the cool, misty mountains for the balmy, sun-kissed coast! After the tour’s final 25 km ride through the countryside the afternoon is at leisure to relax at Pantai Dalit Beach, take a dip in the resort pool, or treat yourself to a massage.
Transfer to Kota Kinabalu Airport or stay onwards to discover more of Borneo.
