Iβve traveled to Sandakan, Sabah in Malaysian Borneo. I got the bus solo from Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah, as a solo female. The journey took nearly 8 hours and I was mainly traveling with Sabahans and Malay locals, who were very kind and friendly. Finally, I arrived at the beautiful city of Sandakan and Sepilok which is based nearby. These are the must-see places on the island of Borneo. Sandakan is amazing and surprised me in many ways with delicious Malaysian street food markets, good infrastructure to get to the animal sanctuaries, and the seaside. But I would say the area around my hotel at night was not super safe, the receptionist lady insisted on always coming out with me in the evening, even to go to the nearest shop (which was very kind and caring).
I will be discovering the hidden gems of Sabah, including Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary, Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC), Rainforest Discovery Centre (RDC), Turtle Islands National Park and The Kinabatangan River. Here is the best travel guide which includes things to do, places to see, and solo travel tips and travel advice for Sabah, Malaysia, on the island of Borneo.
