Day 1: The Journey Begins
0730 hrs — Meet your guide at your hotel lobby in Kota Kinabalu. The first stretch is a 2.5hour ride to Sipitang Town for lunch.
1300 hrs — Buckle up. The real fun begins with a 5-hour off-road adventure in a 4X4 through winding, muddy trails to reach Long Pa Sia.
1700 hrs — Arrival. Your friendly host welcomes you into his home—not a five-star suite, but clean, cozy, and full of character (powered by solar and generator)
After a hearty local dinner and a hot cup of tea, your guide will brief you under the stars. Then it’s lights out—you’ll need the rest.
Day 2 and Beyond: Into the Heart of Borneo
0800 hrs — Rise and shine. Grab your pack and disappear into the depths of the jungle. Each day unfolds with a new adventure—trekking to hidden spots, swimming beneath untouched waterfalls, spotting exotic orchids and wildlife, and listening to tales of the land from your experienced guide.
Sleep wherever the trail takes you, strung between trees in your hammock, the forest as your ceiling. Every night, a new location, a new fire, a new story.
If the river allows, you’ll even learn how to build a bamboo raft and drift down jungle waters back to the village—like true adventurers of old.
Final Day: Back to Reality
0800 hrs — After breakfast, it's time to say goodbye to the jungle life.
1600 hrs — Estimated arrival back in Kota Kinabalu, your head spinning with stories and your heart forever changed.
