Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour
Guest User2025-11-27
Our tour guide was the handsome Jeff! I'd heard so much about him while researching. Meeting him today, he truly lived up to everyone's reputation. He's an "encyclopedic" guide! From the vast world to ancient and modern times, from astronomy to geography, Jeff knows everything. He had a great chat and arranged the itinerary perfectly! We were lucky enough to see proboscis monkeys and fireflies. It was a private tour during the off-season. I highly recommend this trip. The afternoon tea and dinner were simple, but the food was delicious. Everyone from the customer service to the guide was sincere and enthusiastic. Thank you for your company and help. I'd love to work with you again next time!★

Guest User2025-11-20
The itinerary was well-planned, and the round-trip transportation was convenient, saving me a lot of trouble! The guide was patient, and the snorkeling gear was clean. Even beginners got used to it in just 5 minutes. Underwater, you could clearly see clownfish and colorful corals. Overall, it deserves five stars!★

Reviews: Mengalum Island snorkeling 1-day tour includes lunch
Guest User2025-08-01
It's a fantastic island, a pineal room. I got a lot of life shots. It's not easy to take a boat for an hour, but if you look at the beautiful island, all this effort will be rewarded. However, most of them are Chinese. I hope you consider this.
