Brunei to KK via Menumbok (Final part)

Good morning to all. Heres the final part of the trip. The climate was clear and a good day to drive all the way to Menumbok.

Guess who we bumped into

Arrival at ferry stop













*Tips at ferry stop:

1. Submit the copy of previous car pass mentioned in Part 3 and pay tax. Make sure to retain payment receipt.
2. Passport stamped and checked by immigration. Advise for passport holders to do it their own.
3. Be caution that there is a huge hump right before the exit as the pic above marked yellow.


Here is a video during the climb. As indicated, this was during low tide.




*Tips before going up the ferry:

1. Produce ferry ticket to the ferry staff before going up the ferry.
2. As mentioned before, the landing platform was in no good condition, therefore plan ahead where to position your ride and the stack of wood .
3. Make sure the wooden plank are secured to the landing platform.
4. Make sure you have enough eyes watching your every move (ie front, middle and rear).
5. Be caution that there is a huge hump right after the ramp entrance.


On board and secured














After the ferry ride, no problem encountered exiting the ferry to Brunei Muara port as the tide was low. Hope this helps for others to try the ferry ride to KK and good luck. The end.
