Worth the price. Our tour guide Ben was really good and informative.  Food and drinks are all yummy.

A fantastic place to visit for all the family. We booked onto do the 10am tour. We were collected promptly from our hostel at 9am and driven to the village where we paid for our ticket and told our guide would be with us between 9.50 and 10am.

Our wonderful guide Ben gathered those in our group together and shared with us lots of information about the 5 tribes. Drawing upon his knowledge of his grandfather who was part of one of the tribes he was very enthusiastic and passionate.

We got to sample some delicious and fresh samples of honey, rice wine, coffee, tea, fish net biscuit and more! After touring the villages we had a refreshing glass of lime juice and the option of having a henna tattoo before the dancinh performance. It was wonderful! Finally it was time for a buffet lunch. Fresh, warm and delicious! We had a great time and would say its worth every penny.

Important to note it is busy with lots of other groups being toured around the houses at the same time so be under no illusion that it will be you, a guide and the place to yourself. We knew this in advance but there was a couple who looked disappointed at its popularity. That being said the amount of people didn't spoil the experience, you only really notice the group that's ahead of you in the tour. Plus Ben, our guide, was fantastic at giving us bonus facts and stories on the occasion we had to wait for the group in front to finish at one of the houses.

Very good place, very good people, very nice experience.
But be careful, when you go by taxi. Grab can't find taxi well so the price is very expensive. i think you can go with guide when 130-170 rm

We went with a tour but you can go there directly and will cost you a lot lesser. Loved the insights the guide gives you about thier way of life. There is food tasting at all the houses for free and a lovely dance performance at the end. We went for the 2:00pm visit and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves

I saw that reviews for this place was highly rated and was a little skeptical. I thought it might be cheesy! But it turned to be a really enjoyable and informative experience. Also very unique too to Borneo as it is introducing you to the way of life for the indigenous tribes who live/lived there. It is about 3 hours long but they keep you well entertained (and fed!) Recommended for both adults and kids alike!

See Sabah ancient history come to life! Its interactive setting will let your family be entertained throughout the whole activities. Get your tickets at SabahTravel.com
