The mushroom clam chowder soup is also a good choice.

The main course, the delicious Sirloin steak with mushroom sauce   which I have Medium rare is truly to my taste.

And lastly, the Tiramitsu ice cream which was a bit too sweet to my taste bud but still ok and washing all these down with a cup of tea or cup is truly a good way to end it all though…………

Luanti Fish Spa

DSCF5656

Waaaaaah, the fishes are so bug ah!  No kidding, the fishes that will niblle your legs are really that big at the Natural Fish Spa at Luanti, near Sabah Tea Garden which is about 3 hrs journey from Kota Kinabalu and 30 minutes from Poring Hot Spring.  A very interesting place which is taken care of by the villagers themselves.  The river is crystal clear water with the tame fishes forever there ready to nibble your legs or even your body if you venture for a swim………….

tourist guide Grace in Kota Kinabalu
Grace is full of enthusiasm and knowledge about the wildlife and cultural makeup of Borneo and she really brought our trip to life. She was very entertaining during the car journeys with plenty of stories and anecdotes about the region! In terms of cost, we felt it was good value for money compared to the organized tours. Plus, she contacted us at our hotel prior to the trip to confirm details, which was helpful. Thank you Grace for a fantastic day! Paul + Michelle, London

Food Night Market






Thinking of trying some local food and cheap BBQ Seafood. Try out this place known to locals as the "Filipino night market". Located directly across the Le'Meridien hotel, Sinsuran. However, for the BBQ seafood spread, remember to bargain for the price. The tiger prawns look absolutely tempting and delicious and will only cost you 1/3 of the price you would have to pay at Seafood restaurants!

A NEW MILESTONE

Finally, found the time to revive my Blog again!!!!!!!!

Ever since April, have ventured into providing guiding services for FITs, that is, free travellers not joining any groups.

Since June, have been doing quite well through getting quite a bit of tours from the Ourexplorer website and others through recommendations.

A new way of getting guiding assignments and also challenging while satisfying.

I can also get direct feedbacks from the guests too which are also very encouraging.

Well, wish me luck and do visit my page on Ourexplorer website as follows:

Another First Time Experience!

It was yet again another first time experience of dealing with a group of American Boy Scouts and their parents. I did the ground arrangement for them with transport, camping sites and tours too. They also did the Mt. Kinabalu climbing which they booked in advance on their own. Very interesting group and I'm glad that they have enjoyed themselves especially Elysa, the cute little girl as can be seen from the photos:



SAND SPIT AT PULAU TIGA COME ALIVE!

FLOODS CREATING HAVOC and MY FIRST TIME!






There's always a first time for everything. It was my first time to bring my own guests to Pulau Tiga, my first time to witness the flood coming in at the new road that leads to Menumbok (but we were lucky, cos, it was not that bad when we crossed that stretch), my first time to have to look for transport to take us to Klias as our van got stuck queing at the other side of the Menumbok jetty (the flooded stretch was impassable since the previous night and was under several feet of water!), my first time to travel to Klias with my guests in a rented van with the driver driving with his kid seated infront of him! My first time too to use the service of Klias Wetland Adventure (by Jack Koh, a friend), my first time too to be the only guests here with my group. And.........my first time to experience the quietness of Klias, cos, WE ARE THE ONLY ONE ALONG THE RIVER! Not even a fisherman was in sight!

Then, it was my first time too to travel back to Menumbok, my first time to take the small ferry to cross to the other side with my guests and luggages. My first time to walk down the road on the other side in search of our van which was still very far away down the road, waiting for us, the first time to see such a long queue of cars here. My first time to have to point out to my guests and to see fireflies on the road side trees at such an environment! And finally, my first time to reach the hotel at last at 10pm !

And yet, dsepite all these first time with me..................., am I glad that my guests enjoyed themselves and no COMPLAINTS!
