Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour
Guest User2025-11-02
Our guide, Jeff, was very entertaining and knowledgeable, and the day flew by 🙂‍↕️. I can see why it has such good reviews. He gave us lots of information during the travel time, which made it fun! He explained things in simple English for us, who only speak a little English, which was helpful! I was happy to see that he also spoke a little Japanese. He took lots of photos and the tour was full of hospitality! I'm very satisfied with the level of fulfillment for this price! I highly recommend this tour to anyone from Japan looking for a tour! Thank you, Jeff 😊
