Two thumbs up! The best place to visit in Borneo. On the way to Mount Kinabalu, among the places you will pass-by are Jambatan Tamparuli, Pekan Nabalu and Kundasang. The road is winding but not to steep. Be careful as sometimes you'll end up driving in a foggy condition. At Kundasang, you can stay at several places but Mount Perkasa and Kinabalu Pine Resort are recommended.
Apart from mount climbing, you can visit Poring Hot Springs somewhere in Ranau. You can experience canopy walk (extremely challenging), "rebus" yourself in the hot spring "tub", walk through the Butterfly Park, etc.
In KK, don't forget to drop by at Pasar Filipina, the place where you can buy Sabah's pearls, crystals and other gifts. There's a big sea water aquarium in Universiti Sabah Malaysia
Once you visit Sabah, you'll be there soon again!
