Hi Chalim,

Seen your planing is quite good, i have no comment for it. Here is some infomation for you, hopefully is useful.

1) 1st day after you arrive, take a minivan to Mt. Kinabalu & overnight at hostel at Kinabalu park (http://www.suterasanctuarylodges.com.my/kinabalupark.htm) which cost only RM46 per person. Cheap?

2) 3rd day which you down from Mt. Kinabalu, you can take the park shuttle back to KK (http://www.suterasanctuarylodges.com.my/shuttle.html) which only cost you RM40.

3)Whitewater Rafting: you can check with Riverbug package from this, (http://www.traversetours.com/whitewater_rafting_kiulu.php)

Thanx a lot for ur helpful info.

Sounds like a good plan. But you have to take note that booking for an accommodation early saves you a lot of time, not to mention the hassles. Any ideas already on which lodging house you're going to stay? If you are still looking for an accommodation, you can try The Magellan Sutera. This is a premier resort in Kota Kinabalu and conveniently located near Mt. Kinabalu and the Kota Kinabalu International Airport. Though the resort is bit pricey, it guarantees you of quality rooms and facilities. Check out their website: http://www.magellansutera-kotakinabalu.com.
