    The trip start with a pick-up from your hotel in Kota Kinabalu, leading you on a lovely ride that could take around half an hour or more, depending on whether the weather decides to go along, the traffic, and road condition.
  2. 15m · Admission ticket included
    When you arrive, get ready for a warm welcome as you gear up for your epic time-travel adventure into prehistoric Borneo! But hold your horses—first, you’ll need a crash course on the Village Rules before you dive in. Prepare yourself for a grand entrance as you’re welcomed by the Chief, who’s probably been practicing his best “Welcome” face in the mirror all morning! Get ready for a custom Welcome Ceremony that’s sure to be more entertaining than a cat video marathon.
  3. 3h · Admission ticket included
    Next, you can take a stroll across the suspension bridge to waltz right into Mari-Mari! This is a delightful mix of five ethnic groups: the Dusun, Rungus, Murut, Bajau, and Lundayeh, all coming together like a quirky family reunion where everyone brings their own dish to the potluck! Every ethnic group has its own wild tales and funky dance moves, not to mention a history that could fill a library—or at least a really entertaining coffee table book, such as traditional congkak game, art of bamboo cooking, culture performance, fire with a blowpipe, handmade tree bark textiles and much much more. Lunch will be dished out right inside Mari-Mari.
  4. Kota Kinabalu
