Travel guide to Sabah, Malaysia in 2020

Sabah, Malaysia is the preferred destination for many travelers. Everyone is looking forward to bathing in the sunshine on the beach here. The water quality of Sabah is crystal clear, the sand on the beach here is soft and delicate, and all kinds of delicious food are dazzling. This is a good tourist destination.

Visa Malaysia is not a visa-free country, but its characteristic Entri is very convenient, low cost and fast visa issuance, but there are corresponding restrictions on the airport, so you can apply at the window in Malaysia.

Or find a Taobao agent, which is more convenient. It can be expedited or free of charge, and the price is tens of dollars. Generally, it will be sent out in 1-3 days, and the confirmation form will be printed after signing, so that Malaysia can be unblocked.

Climate Kota Kinabalu and Semporna belong to tropical climate. The average temperature in summer is between 23-3 1 degree. Although it is located in the tropics, it is cooler in the morning and evening, and there are not many mosquitoes, but it will get some sunshine during the day. April-September is the dry season, and the rest is the rainy season. Although the dry season is more suitable for tourism, the rain here is usually showers, which will clear up soon, so don't worry too much. 165438+1October-February is the rainy season. Even if you travel to Sabah in the non-rainy season, you need to bring rain gear or umbrella. Because of the terrain, Shenshan National Park often encounters thunderstorms in the afternoon.

Although Sabah is located in the hurricane zone, it is hardly disturbed by typhoons.

The best time to travel Generally speaking, Sabah's climate is suitable for year-round travel. It is worth noting that in May, different celebrations were held throughout the month. Sabah's climate is like summer all year round, with no obvious rainy season and dry season, belonging to tropical climate. Occasionally, tropical rain or showers visit in the afternoon, which makes the air here particularly fresh and the tropical rain forest greener.

So I suggest you bring more summer clothes. But visitors to Shenshan Park (especially mountain climbers) must bring warm clothes and rain gear to keep out the cold and moisture.

Transportation Uber-Kota Kinabalu downtown is small, and it takes only half an hour to walk from the city. If it's a little further, call Uber. Download an international version of Uber, and you can directly deduct money by binding a credit card. Of course, you can also pay in cash.

Taxi-not recommended, because the taxi in Kota Kinabalu doesn't hit the meter, the price is 2-3 times that of Uber, and the air conditioning is basically not turned on, so the ride experience is not very good.

Rent a car-because the driving habits are contrary to those in China, and there are many Kota Kinabalu paths and ring roads, and the road conditions are complicated, it is not recommended to rent a car yourself.

Motorcycle rental-You can rent a motorcycle from GGRENTAMOTOBIKE for RM 20 for 5 hours.

Charter car-if the place you want to go is remote, charter car is a good way. One-day tour packages on Taobao are all in the form of chartered cars. Even if you decide what scenic spots to visit temporarily, there are many regular travel agencies in the local area to consult.

Currency Malaysia uses the local currency RM 1 ≈ 1.7 RMB.

The more common Malay calling cards are Hotlink, Digi and Celcom, and the price difference is not big, mainly according to the number of days and traffic. You can buy it from Taobao in advance or get off the plane and buy it locally. It is not recommended that you buy Hotlink, because the signal is really not very good.

After buying something in the mall, take the trophy, invoice and passport to the designated tax refund point in the mall to get the form. After arriving at Kota Kinabalu International Airport, find the customs on the far left and show me the trophy, invoice, passport and form. After customs inspection, they will stamp the form and then go to CIMB.

Bank tax refund is enough.

Please bring summer clothes, sunglasses, umbrellas, sandals, sun protection equipment and supplies, swimsuits, etc. Shenshan is located at a high altitude and the weather is cold.
