Malaysian Borneo-Food, Adventure, Wildli...

JOHN SABOE
About this episode
Honestly I really don't know why I don't talk about Malaysian Borneo-Sarawak/Sabah more! I have so many wonderful memories of these places to eating amazing seafood dinners to climbing to the roof of Borneo on Mt. Kinabalu. In this episode I cover the main centers of the states of Sarawak and Sabah, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu respectively. Of course there's tons of other places to see and adventures to experience I don't talk about in this episode but this will certainly getting you started on your vision of a trip to Malaysian Borneo. This place really does have it all including modern sophisticated resorts if you prefer or basic hostel accomodations. Some of the more serious adventures aren't cheap, my hike up Mt. Kinabalu was over $500USD and if you want to make a trip out to the Danum Valley that will be expensive too unless you book accomodation at the park huts, which you'll need to do months in advence. Also of note I will say is even in the tourist places I never felt like I was a target as much as in other places in Southeast Asia, it's a pretty cool laid back vibe there. Thanks for listening! I always enjoy hearing from listeners, please connect with me on Facebook, Instagram or Twiiter and visit my website: https://fareasttravels.com
