For those seeking to dive into the rich cultural heritage and natural history of Sabah, the Sabah State Museum offers a captivating experience. Here's how to reach this destination:
Arrive at Kota Kinabalu International Airport (BKI). It’s the main gateway into Sabah and Borneo Island. From the airport, you can take a taxi or a ride-sharing service directly to the museum.
If you are in the city center of Kota Kinabalu, the most convenient way is to hire a taxi. Alternatively, you can use ride-hailing apps such as Grab, which allows you to book a car directly to the museum.
Public buses are available from various points within the city. Look for buses that are heading towards the Petagas/Kepayan area as they often pass the museum. Ask the driver to stop at the Sabah State Museum’s entrance.
If you are staying in the vicinity of the museum, it’s possible to reach the destination on foot or rent a bicycle for a more scenic journey, though it’s worth noting that Kota Kinabalu can be quite hot and humid.
For those driving their own vehicles, ample parking space is available at the museum.
The museum operates from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and it is open daily. Make sure to check for any public holiday closures or changes in opening hours.
There's a minimal admission fee for entering the museum, with different rates for locals and international visitors. Be sure to have some Malaysian Ringgit on hand.
We hope you have a wonderful and educational visit to the Sabah State Museum!
