As the year is coming to an end, many of us especially students, anticipate for the long semester break. Taking a break from the urban life during this time of the year is a great therapy for the mind and body to recharge. Going on a getaway trip to Kiulu Valley is the perfect choice if you want to unwind and relax as the environment there is soothing for the mind and body. It is a paradise for travelers who love nature and serene ambiance. Since there is very limited cell phone reception service around the area, this will only maximize your experience as you explore the countryside of Kiulu.
