We decided for this trip as we missed the view of Mount KK and since it was my younger son semester break, so why not just a short 5 days 4 nights.
We took Air Asia on 20 June 2019 and landed just before noon, off we went with our rented car to lunch at Fatt Kee Seafood Noodle and then drive to 2 hours to Kundasang.
Car was rented with LYL Car Rental KK a Proton Saga VVT Auto for 4 days at RM360. We stayed at Kundasang Pine Resort 2 units superior standard facing Mount Kinabalu at RM280 per room per nite with 2 breakfast and 2 dinner included
