We will be departing on Wednesday 12 to spend one night in Kuala Lumpur (and three hours of shopping) and then heading to Kota Kinabalu, Borneo for eight nights.  We will be staying at Shangri-La's Tanjung Aru Resort.  With inviting beaches, views of sparkling coral islands, and legendary attentive service, Shangri-La's Tanjung Aru Resort offers the serenity of a secluded tropical retreat just minutes away from the centre of Kota Kinabalu.

Perched on the northern tip of the island of Borneo, the Malaysian state of Sabah is a tropical paradise of natural wonders, scenic beauty, rugged landscapes and cultural diversity. Sabah is famous for its unique blend of ancient traditions handed down through the millennia and modern evolution. In this fascinating cultural, natural and adventure tourism destination, you'll find such exotic sights as the Rafflesia (the largest flower in the world), Asian elephants, proboscis monkeys, and of course, the famous Orang Utan.
