Aiman was our guide, he was really knowledgeable and engaging for the entire tour. I did the morning tour with lunch afterwards, a good buffet with local foods and desert. I also had transport arranged, my driver Mr Alan was fantastic. 10/10 very worth doing if you have the time!★

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kiulu Water Raft and Mari-Mari Cultural Village Tour
Guest User2024-10-05
Jiulu rafting is very exciting, but not dangerous, the coach is professional and very careful, I was afraid of the water, let me enjoy this journey! Mali Mali Cultural Village also makes me very unforgettable! The tour guide Cavin is very professional and attentive, and the commentator Ray is also very professional and let me know a lot about the customs of Malaysian indigenous peoples!
