Tamparuli and Tuaran Fishing Villages Tour from Kota Kinabalu

Take a lively tour into rural Borneo and visit the native markets of Tamparuli and Tuaran


Attractions and things to do - Tamparuli and Tuaran Fishing Villages Tour from Kota Kinabalu

Plunge deep into the countryside of Borneo and find out how people live in the rural areas.

See the fresh green landscape with its paddy fields, rubber plantations, palm trees and villages set against a background of lush forests.

Stop at the small towns of Tamparuli and Tuaran. If your visit is on Sunday or Wednesday, you will find people meeting and shopping at one of the lively weekly markets. See Tamparuli’s most famous landmark, a long hanging bridge, immortalised in a popular song.

Experience the timeless atmosphere of a Bajau fishing village, home to an ethnic group known as ‘sea gypsies’ because of their formidable sea-faring skills. See the quaint houses on stilts above the water, connected to one another by a latticework of wooden walkways.

You can take this tour as part of a larger group or opt for a private tour for a more personal experience.
