5D4N Free & Easy in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

My bestie’s husband took care of all the details for this trip. The four of us traveled together. 👍 Highly recommended: Pink University of Sabah, Floating Mosque, Mantanani Island. Entry preparation: Passport, ID card 👉 Print out your round-trip flight itinerary ✈️ and hotel booking confirmation 🏨 You can prepare some local currency 💰, but Alipay is accepted in many places. 🚗 Transportation: Grab is very convenient! 💖 Recommended attractions: You must go to the mangrove forest to see the fireflies. The fireflies there are as bright as stars, and you will feel like you are in a fairy tale. Top recommendation: Pink University of Sabah. It is very photogenic, and you can take great photos 📷. There is also an aquarium and a beach, which are worth visiting. But remember to take a taxi, as the University of Sabah is really big! The Floating Mosque is also very beautiful. Snorkeling on Mantanani Island and Mabul Island is amazing. The water is clear, and you can see many marine creatures. The only downside is that the boat ride takes 1–1.5 hours, so prepare some motion sickness medicine. It is really hot there. Travel tips: Sun protection: Sunscreen, sunglasses, and sun hat. The UV rays are very strong there. Comfortable clothes: Shorts, short sleeves, and light dresses. Bring a jacket, as the temperature difference between day and night is large. Snorkeling equipment: Mask, snorkel, etc. You can also rent them locally. I am nearsighted, so I bring a prescription mask. Photography equipment: Camera or phone Others: British plug adapter, mosquito repellent, motion sickness medicine, cold medicine. Bring them if you have them.
