Your day begins at 07:30 hrs with a hotel pick-up from Kota Kinabalu City. Enjoy a scenic 3-hour drive north to Kudat Town, passing by sweeping views of oil palm plantations—an integral part of Malaysia’s agricultural landscape. Along the way, stop at several cultural villages that showcase Sabah’s rich heritage. First, visit Kampung Gombizau, a traditional bee farm, for a short 15-minute insight into local honey-harvesting techniques. Then continue to Kampung Sumangkap, famed for its handmade gongs. Here, learn about the art and cultural significance of gong-making, a vital tradition among Sabah’s indigenous communities.

A 15-minute drive will then take you to Kampung Bavanggazo, home to the Rungus longhouse. Enjoy a guided tour and immerse yourself in the unique lifestyle, architecture, and customs of the Rungus people. Lunch will be served at the longhouse, offering you a taste of local hospitality. After a relaxing break, the journey continues with a 50-minute drive along rustic gravel roads toward the iconic Tanjung Simpang Mengayau, also known as the Tip of Borneo. Take in the stunning coastal landscape where the South China Sea meets the Sulu Sea—arguably one of the most breathtaking vistas in the region.

In the late afternoon, begin your return journey to Kota Kinabalu, arriving back at your hotel in the early evening.
