Sandakan Free Walking Tour

Come walk with us!

The Sandakan Free Walking Tour is fun and educational, and makes the perfect introduction to Sandakan and its history since the 1700s.

All our guides live locally and are able to share with you things about Sandakan that you cannot find in travel books. They know plenty about the Sandakan history, culture, local traditions and can help you with any general or practical questions you have regarding your stay in our city.

We have decided to run the Sandakan Free Walking Tour because we believe it’s a great contribution to Sandakan and its visitors to offer everybody a chance get to know our lovely town.

The Sandakan Free Walking Tour is led by a group of like-minded individuals and/or local volunteers who support sustainable tourism, local businesses, culture and traditions.

This tour is created and supported by Borneo Sandakan Tours with the purpose of supporting our authentic nature city, Sandakan, the one we sincerely love. The Sandakan Free Walking Tour is entirely planned and prepared by professional licenced nature guides from Borneo Sandakan Tours.

Why we do this?

• Promoting sustainable tourism
• Maintaining and promoting Sandakan traditions and culture
• Educating and sharing our Sandakan history
• Supporting local businesses and activities
