Sabah Village Life

Sabah Village Life Overview

Sabah, the eastern state of Malaysian Borneo, is home to incredible wildlife but also unique cultural experiences. Most people live in small villages, some in modernized longhouses. Farming of rice and other staple crops is a way of life. In some villages, a particular craft or product provides livelihood for all.

This short itinerary gives a taste of village life within a day’s drive of Kota Kinabalu. Spend one night in a farm stay learning about contemporary village life but otherwise relax at a lovely resort by the South China Sea. This short trip is great for families and combines well with a holiday elsewhere in Borneo, Malaysia, or Southeast Asia.
