Our friends from Peninsular Malaysia are always surprised to find that Sabahans are fond of Tea break and high tea too. Besides asking our friends to go Yamcha (drink tea). Sabahans would say ‘Let’s go High-Tea’. Tea drinking is definitely part of our culture and it fits well into our laid back lifestyle. Located 2,272 feet above sea levels, the harvests are 100% pesticide free as insect are drawn towards the 130 million year old rainforest surrounding the plantation. Afterwards head towards to the World World II Memorial Site also known as Kundasang War Memorial by the locals. The scent of Roses lingers in the air and the serene atmosphere makes the Kundasang War Memorial an ideal place to contemplate and remember the heroes of the war.

Very moving and interesting roadtrip in the mountains
We made a booking error and the tour operater went above and beyond to accommodate us...bravo to Edwin and our guide, Jeffrey. The tour itself is not cheap but you cover a lot of ground, see magnificent countryside, very moving war memorials and have a very tasty lunch at the tea plantation over looking a stunning valley. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend
Response from the operator: Dear Sir , Madam Good Day I will be sure to pass on your review to Jeff. Thank you for selecting us on this tour of Sabah Tea Plantation. We look forward to serve you again on your next Borneo Trip.

The outlet may consider a Welcome Tea Drinks to guest as its a ling way up to the outlet.Arrived before afternoon but the tea factory is not Open for a viewing.So just taking few snapshots on mountains view.
Response from the operator: Dear Sir , Madam Good Day We are sorry as the tea factory was close on Sunday. It was replace with a Tea Plantation Briefing. Lunch is included in the tour but no refreshment drinks were included. The view of the Sabah Tea Plantation is breathtaking. I will re-organize this tour and consider to include your suggestion at the same cost. we look forward to serve you again on your next visit to Borneo.

Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kota Kinabalu.
How much does Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial cost?
+
Prices start at $170 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kota Kinabalu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kota Kinabalu is not rushed.
Is Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kota Kinabalu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kota Kinabalu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kota Kinabalu and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kota Kinabalu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kota Kinabalu?
+
On Outty we rank every Kota Kinabalu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guided Snorkeling Day Trip, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia, Leisure Diving | Fun Dives | 3 Dives in TARP, Kota Kinabalu, Learn to Dive | RAID Open Water 18 Diver Course | Kota Kinabalu. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kota Kinabalu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kota Kinabalu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial?
+
Included: Driver cum Guide; Sabah Tea Welcome Drink; Private Tour; Kundasang War Memorial; and Tea Factory Tour. Not included: Tea Factory Close on Sundays & Public Holidays. Replace with Plantation Briefing. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Full Day Sabah Tea Plantation & WWII Memorial offered in?
+
