About Climb Transport Arrangements

1. Should you encounter difficulties in locating our guide, you can call our hotline number/s stated in your itinerary for further assistance.
2. We recommend climbers avoid catching their flight on the same day they descend the mountain due to possible delays from injuries, tiredness and/or bad weather and traffic conditions.
3. The designated pick-up point is Sabah Tourism Board Building @ Jalan Gaya at 12:15 Hrs in Kota Kinabalu City. Latecomers will have to arrange their own transportation to Kinabalu Park and meet our team before 09:00 hrs on the climbing day for final registration.
4. Kindly note that there will be no alternative transport arrangements if you miss the stipulated pick-up time.
5. After descending to Kinabalu Park HQ, climbers are subject to a pre-determined pick-up time set by Amazing Borneo Tours with the last transport returning to Kota Kinabalu City latest by 1930hrs. We will ensure your possible wait of not more than 2 hours at Park HQ. However, if you missed the last transport (which is unlikely) or wish to depart at your own preferred timing, we can arrange a vehicle for private transfer for you (Subject to availability). Please understand that the surcharge for any private transfer will have to be borne by you.
6. Our group rates are quoted without deviation, which means we provide only one return transfer for your group. Should you prefer a private guide for your group and have pick-up/drop-off at your KK City hotel, please book ABK-MK02 instead.
