  Do you offer customized tours? I'm interested on the Sabah Adventure but skipping the hike to Mt. Kinabalu, and adding 3-4 days at the end of this tour to Singapore.

    We do offer customized tours, but there are a few requirements that need to be met. Unfortunately, the minimum requirement is 4 passengers. Since there are only 2 travelers, we recommend joining a suitable group tour or exploring other available options.

  I have had altitude sickness in the past and don't think I would be capable of this activity at my age, 70. Would there be something else I would be able to do?

  Is transport from the airport on the first day included? And also on the last day? If not, could this be arranged and how much would the cost be? As I'm travelling alone, would I be sharing accommodation with other females?

    This tour does not include transfers but we would be happy to pre book for you if you would be more comfortable on arrival knowing a representative was there to meet you.
    
    An arrival transfer price varies depending if arriving day or night. Day for yourself in the vehicle will be an additional 16 EUR, night 24 EUR.
    
    Departure transfer would be an additional 29 EUR.
    
    If you want to take a taxi on arrival please go to the taxi service counter – here the rate is a set rate of 35 MYR and they will issue a voucher to use with the taxi's parked outside. If you arrive between 12am – 6am expect to pay a 50% surcharge

    Unfortunately it does look like the December 17th date is sold out. As our system is not live sometimes it can take a day or 2 to get these sold out dates removed from our website. In fact it looks like it has already been removed
    
    It does look like there is a December 10th or December 22nd departure available though. Would any of those dates catch your eye?

  Asked on June 22nd, 2022

  Was wondering if it was possible to confirm availability on this tour before I paid the deposit as these are the only dates I am free for?

    Intrepid TravelOperator•Written June 2022

    The availability shown on our website is live availability and is constantly updating, so what you can see on the website is accurate. At the moment, there are 8 travellers confirmed on this departure, meaning there are 8 spaces available. This means it is likely your spot would be confirmed, should you pay in full and we request it with our operator team. The On Request process is necessary once we are within 28 days to the departure date, as we need to be able to confirm availability for various accommodation locations and transport services throughout the trip before we confirm your spot on the tour. If we are unable to confirm your space on the trip, we would provide a full refund for the money paid towards the booking.

  Asked on May 29th, 2022

  Is it possible to rent or buy cheap/good quality stuff for the Kinabalu hike there? I'm going travelling around south east Asia for a few months and Borneo would be my first stop. I don't really want to have to carry everything I need for the hike from the UK or be taking it with me afterwards as I don't plan on doing many other hikes like this!

    Kota Kinabalu is a well established city with many shopping options where you can look to pick up any last minute essentials for your trip. Our essential trip information has a packing section which will outline what we suggest you pack for the trip. Anything you need you should be able to pick up in Kota Kinabalu and some of the bigger towns along the way if you need too, but it's a good idea to be as prepared as possible before you start the tour.

    I'm also very interested in doing my PADI in Borneo as I've heard it's excellent diving but I've not done my qualification yet. I'm not in any rush to head off anywhere after the Intrepid tour finishes so do you have any recommendations for where I could do my PADI, somewhere reasonably priced and safe?
  • 

    Intrepid TravelOperator•Written June 2022

    Unfortunately, we would not be able to recommend you on these. I would suggest you check out PADI team blogs to get the most useful advice.

  What type of age group can you expect on this trip?

    This tour is usually made of a wide range of ages, so wouldn't be exclusively a younger group, although this doesn't usually detract from enjoying the tour.
