Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour
Guest User2026-01-04
Although I made the reservation the day before, the guide arrived in the hotel lobby five minutes early to pick me up. The road to the boat dock was not particularly smooth, so it was quite bumpy, but we arrived earlier than scheduled. The wait time before boarding was short, and the tour was smooth throughout, allowing me to participate with peace of mind. The first tour was an animal observation cruise, and there were many highlights, including monkeys and buffalo. It was great that we were given more time to observe them than the other nearby boats. The weather was unfortunate for sunset, but we were able to take plenty of time to take photos on the beautiful beach. On my second trip, I was able to see many more beautiful fireflies than I expected, which was a great experience. The food was also delicious. Of the various tours available, I was glad I chose this one, which was mid-priced. I highly recommend it.

Reviews: Pink Mosque at Universiti Malaysia Sabah + Kota Kinabalu City Mosque + Tun Mustapha Tower half-day tour
Guest User2025-12-08
The tour guide was incredibly professional and attentive. There were only two of us, and he took photos of us at every attraction – they were even better than the photos we took ourselves! We loved it! 😍 He introduced the sights and even recommended some local seafood at the end. We were extremely satisfied! Five stars! Highly recommended! 👍🏻

Reviews: Bongawan Mangrove Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies Tour with Sky Mirror - Solo Traveler Option
Guest User2025-07-08
James was the best travel guide! Best driver, pro photographer and the same skills, passionate tour description! We were getting into the tour and had no choice but to be impressed. Because of his efforts, we were very satisfied with the time we spent on a day. Yin Yee, who supports advance contact, was also accurate and friendly, so we were able to conduct a tour without any problems.

Reviews: Sabah Weston Wetland River Cruise, Proboscis Monkey, Sunset & Fireflies 1 Day Shared Tour
Guest User2025-09-04
We saw two types of monkeys and a large crocodile. We also saw a lot of fireflies, which was fantastic. Above all, the sunset was amazing. It was the best I've ever seen. The boat tour was a really great experience! The car ride was 2.5 hours each way, and it was quite shaky and painful. That was the only negative point. Overall, I would recommend this trip to others.

I was worried because I don’t speak much English, but our guide Michael was very kind. We had an amazing time in the crystal-clear ocean. Thank you
