#springitinerary ChatGPT said: I visited the Borneo Cultural Village in Sabah, and it was such an eye-opening experience! Located about a 50-minute drive from Kota Kinabalu, this place truly immerses you in the rich cultures of Borneo’s indigenous groups. I got to explore seven traditional houses, each representing a different ethnic group—like the Chinese House, Brunei House, Murut House, and more. It was fascinating to see how each was uniquely built and learn about their daily lives. What I loved most were the interactive activities! I joined traditional dance performances, tried my hand at blowpipe shooting, watched how they start fires using bamboo, and even took part in some traditional games. The hands-on experiences like henna tattooing and weaving were a nice bonus too. Food-wise, I got to taste some amazing local dishes like roti canai, curry chicken, and even tried some fermented rice wine called tapai. It was delicious and really added to the cultural immersion. The village is best visited in the morning around 10 am, and I made sure to wear comfy clothes and bring sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water. It’s also great to take a guided tour that includes hotel pick-up, which made the trip super easy. Overall, Borneo Cultural Village was a highlight of my trip—whether you’re into culture, history, or just looking for a unique experience, I highly recommend it! #KuchingAdventures

#springitinerary A Perfect Day Trip in Sabah Here’s a little secret for planning your visit: There are two time slots to choose from — Morning session: 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM Afternoon session: 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM Tips to pick your session: Morning session is great if you arrive in Sabah early and won’t check in to your hotel until the afternoon. Afternoon session works well if you have a flight in the evening or at night — you can learn about the local culture and kill time comfortably. Weather-proof option: Even if it rains or the sky’s gloomy and you can’t go out to sea, the Cultural Village visit won’t be affected — it’s a perfect indoor/outdoor activity! Enjoy Sabah’s rich heritage, colorful traditions, and unique cultures all in one place — rain or shine! #SabahTravel #BorneoCulturalVillage #DayTripIdeas #RainOrShineFun 🌿🏞️🎭🛖

#JulyTravelSupportEvent #Dinawan #Malaysia #IslandTour I recommend the quiet Dinawan. Dinawan, where there were less than 10 tourists, excluding the staff working on the entire island!! If you want to lie down in a quiet and leisurely place, not in a crowded place, I recommend Dinawan~! Even the staff take a nap in a hammock^^ A paradise island~!

They provide the good facilities, staff are very friendly and good management. Swimming pools, and beach were also very nice.

#Summer travel Accommodation pick-up - Dinawan Island - Welcome tea - Snorkeling - Lunch - Paddle boat, kayak, beach snorkeling - Snack - Return Kota Kinabalu has many islands such as Gaya Island and Sapi Island, and I visited Dinawan Island, which is a beautiful island among them. Dinawan Island is an island with clean emerald sea, beautiful coral, and pretty fish. I would definitely recommend the Dinawan Island tour in Kota Kinabalu. You can enjoy the hopping tour, healing in the clear sea, and various marine activities. Above all, there are not many people and it is quiet, so you can enjoy the private Dinawan Island. 🏝️ Kota Kinabalu Dinawan Island
