KK Luxury Yacht Sunset Cruise

-

Previously we bought this this KK Luxury Escape (KKLE) package which includes 1 night stay at Manukan Island Resort, 1 night stay at Shangri-La's Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa, one time KK Luxury Yacht Sunset Cruise with Hi-Tea for 2 person and one time 90 minutes Spa at Kama'A Rejuvenation & Wellbeing Spa for 2 person. Total package paid was RM 899 for 2 pax. Finally after one year we get to go for this KK Luxury Yacht Sunset Cruise. Registration starts from 4.30pm at Star Marina Jetty and we embarked on the yacht at 4.50pm. By the way, shoes are not allowed on the yacht. They will collect the shoes from you during embarkment and give it back to you during disembarkment.

The weather was cloudy and it started to rain soon after we left the jetty. Basically they changed the sailing routes due to the bumpy sea conditions. So we just cruise along Suria Sabah shopping mall, Hyatt Regency Kinabalu, Pasar Besar Kota Kinabalu, Handicraft Market, Water Front and Sutera Harbour Resort. They served light tea break such as mini burgers, sandwiches, free flow of beer, wine and fizzy drink. Food doesn't taste good at all except for the sandwiches. Apart from that, the yacht was idle most of the time in the middle of the sea. We can see everyone is bored and the only way to kill time is by staring at their phone. Sunset wasn't great either because it was blocked by clouds. We disembarked from the yacht at 7.45pm. Overall we are not impressed with the sunset cruise.

4.30pm - Arrival and check in
4.45pm - Safety introduction and on board
5.00pm - The sunset cruise party begins
5.30pm - Dinner while the sun sets beyond the horizon
6.30pm - Cruise along and witness the magnificent view of KK City
8.00pm - Wrap up for the night

Estimated duration - 3 hours
* the operator reserves the right to change or amend the sailing routes for the comfort of our passengers in the event of bumpy sea conditions

Guangzhou/Shenzhen - Day 4/Day 1 (Luohu Commercial City - Dongmen Pedestrian Street - Sun Plaza)

-

We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to lea...
