I will not suggest you purposely drive back from kundasang to kk in the early morning because the best time to visit gaya street is around 8-10am, if u wanna reach there on time u have to depart from kundasang at 6am which is a bit too early for you unless you dont mind to wake up early since sabah sunrise is at 6am.

Thanks for the info. Ya, i think a bit waste of time to travel back and forth from kundasang to kk, maybe next trip just visit the morning market.

Thanks again smile.gif

Manukan is larger and got more facilities there. So, there're lot more people there. Got like some stay there but never inquiry since I know it's expensive and a boat ride just 20 minutes away from the shore.

Hi for those who wanna go for island hopping you can refer to this Sea Quest Tour

or visit their website
http://www.seaquesttours.net/home.html

Alternatively you can book your seat upon walk in at Sutera Harbor pier there

Tips for island hopping, if you never been to any islands in Sabah, this is the recommended itinerary


1.Pulau Sapi (most crowded)
2.Pulau Manukan (less crowded)
3.Pulau Mamutik (less crowded)

These 3 islands are the nearest islands from KK city which take around 20 minutes to arrive.

If you want a more adventurous island day trip and explore a new discovered and unpolluted island, I would recommend PULAU MENGALUM.

You can book car rent at the airport with reputable company and also with insurance, but the price is definitely more expensive.

If you're on budget, advised to book early and ask the company the send the car at your designated time.

So, it's just price wide since both option is viable.

Very good itinerary I must say.
Not very rushing.
Just prepare a lot of drink on your 2nd day, could be long and hot day.

Not very sure what you want to do when it's time for 'free n easy', so suggest to choose a central location hotel like several hotel in warisan square.

And for Kundasang, can choose pine resort or celyn hotel.
