Long trip. 4 hours round trip but approximately 75 minutes on the water to see <10 proboscis monkeys and less than 30 minutes to see about 2 bushes of fireflies. Great guide, though.
Great tour. Really worth the money. It was a 4 hour bus trip to get there and back from Kota Kinabalu but worth it. Afternoon tea, 2 1/2 hour boat trip, lots of monkeys, dinner then a 1/2 hour boat trip to see fireflies. Would recommend it.

After a 2 hour van journey from KK we had a snack at the base camp. It was raining heavily (shorts , sandals and rain poncho recommended) but when the rain stopped we saw several groups of monkeys high in the trees including proboscis and silver leaf monkeys and macaques. We also saw a couple of pairs of hornbills. Our guide gave us lots of interesting information and made us laugh. After a very good dinner we returned to the river where we saw lots of amazing fireflies. We loved this trip.

We booked the tour from their office in Likas Square KK. Christine was very pleasant, friendly and efficient. We had to postpone our tour and there was no problems or any extra cost and Christine booked us for the next weeks tour. She also took us to meet the bus driver and tour guide. The drive to the Klias River took approximately 2 hours. Once at the river we were given an afternoon tea and our life Jackets before we boarded our boat. The guides found many Proboscis Monkeys although the males were a bit reticent to get close to the boat. After the boat trip we were given a help yourself meal of the local food which was delicious. Once darkness descended we were back on the river to see the fireflies which although present they were not in huge numbers but those that flew through the boat elicited squeals of joy from some of the members of the tour. The drive back, though tedious, was very safe.
Hi, Greetings from Only In Borneo Tours Sdn Bhd! Thank you so much for your wonderful review of the Borneo (Klias) River Cruise & Fireflies Tour. We truly appreciates for taking your time to share your experience with us, will convey your best regards to Ms. Christine. We’re delighted and glad that you enjoyed the scenic journey to Klias River, the afternoon tea, and the opportunity to see the Proboscis Monkeys up close, even if the big males were feeling a little shy that day 😊 It’s also wonderful to know you enjoyed the local dinner and experienced the magical fireflies in the evening. While their numbers can vary depending on natural conditions, we’re happy that those little moments, especially when they flew near the boat and created joyful memories for your group. Thank you as well for mentioning the safe return journey. Guest comfort and safety are always our top priorities. We truly hope to welcome you back again for another river adventure in the future! Best regards, The Management Team
Very nice family tour, we see the long nose monkeys in short distance and also see many fiteflies. Afternoon tea and dinner are also good.

4 hours total drive time from Kota Kinabalu. Roughly 30 minutes on the river looking at monkeys/birds, then 5-10 minutes looking at firefly’s before leaving. Subject matter of the wildlife is interesting. “Tour Guide” did not offer any information on tour other than when it was time to get on the boat, went to sleep immediately when getting back in the van. Dinner was ok.
Greetings from Only In Borneo Tours Sdn Bhd Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We truly appreciate your comments, as they help us improve our services. We are glad to hear that you found the wildlife sightings interesting and that dinner was satisfactory. However, we sincerely apologize for the shortcomings you experienced, particularly regarding the limited duration of the river cruise and the lack of engagement and commentary from our tour guide. This is certainly not the level of service we strive to provide. Please be assured that your feedback has been shared with our operations team for further review and improvement, especially in enhancing guide professionalism, guest interaction, and overall tour experience. We appreciate your honesty and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future with a much-improved experience. Warm regards, Management Team
Excellent cruise led by the knowledgeable and funny Ms Khatta and Mr Roddy the driver. We got to see probiscus monkeys, kingfisher bird, hornbill, a crocodile and after sunset saw the fireflies flickering in the trees against the dark silhouette sky. The tour also included tea and snacks and dinner. Definitely worth the quick tour from the city. Thank you
Hi Lepina, Greetings from Only In Borneo Tours Sdn Bhd! Thank you so much for joining our cruise and for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a memorable experience with Ms. Khatty and Mr. Roddy — they’ll be thrilled to know their knowledge and humor made your journey even more enjoyable. It’s amazing that you managed to spot so many of Borneo’s wildlife treasures, from proboscis monkeys and hornbills to a crocodile and the magical fireflies lighting up the night. We’re glad the tea, snacks and dinner added to the experience too. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback, and we’re honored you found the tour worth the trip from the city. Hope to welcome you back again someday! Till then, take care and have a wonderful day. Best regards, The Management Team
If you haven't done the Kinabatangan River Cruise (which I did), then this tour is definitely worth doing. It was a good tour. My tour guide picked me up around 2.00pm from my hotel in Kota Kinabalu to get to Klias River Cruise around 4.30pm. We had a quick cup of tea and cakes before the first river cruise starting around 5.15pm. On the first cruise, we managed to see a lot of proboscis monkeys, macaques and a grey langur. We saw a monitor lizard climbing a palm tree as well. On one side we managed to see a crocodile along the river banks. Once the sun is set, we came back to base to have dinner, then did the fireflies tour at night after dinner. We have managed to see the fireflies around the trees and close to us - I actually caught one as it was in the palm of my hands but after 20 minutes, the rain came down hard and we had to get back to base and head to our minibus. The tour guide we had was great but it was a shame that the Fireflies tour was cut short due to torrential downpours.
Hi, Greetings from Only in Borneo Tours Sdn Bhd! Thank you for sharing such a detailed and honest review of your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that you found the Klias River Cruise worthwhile — especially after having done the Kinabatangan River Cruise! It sounds like you had a wonderful encounter with Borneo’s wildlife, from proboscis monkeys, macaques and grey langurs to monitor lizards and even a crocodile — what an incredible sighting! We’re also happy to know you enjoyed the refreshments, dinner and evening firefly cruise. We’re sorry that the firefly tour had to end early due to the sudden heavy rain — nature has its surprises, and safety always comes first. Still, catching a firefly in your hand before the downpour sounds like a magical moment to remember! Thank you once again for joining us and for your kind words about our guide. We hope to welcome you back one day — perhaps for a clear-sky firefly cruise next time! Best Regards, The Management Team
Amazing evening, food was great, monkeys were there and fireflies were magical, be aware the travel to get there is quite long!
Hi Greetings from OIB Tours Sdn Bhd! Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the evening, the food, the monkeys, and of course the magical fireflies. To get the best insights into wildlife and to truly experience nature, some travelling distance areas are located away from the city. We appreciate your understanding and are happy it was worth the journey. Hope to welcome you again soon! Take care. Best regards, The Management Team
A truly great experience and tour package! Driver Selani was very prompt, contacted in advance and a safe driver. Tour bus was clean and air conditioned. The driver also pointed out points of interest along the 2 hour journey. You arrive at basecamp to a site which is owned and only for this tour company. It's fabulous- totally clean and suitable for western tourists. Western toilets with toilet paper and very clean. The food for afternoon tea and dinner is top quality too. Clean, safe and very very tasty. They also made sure to note my dietary requirements which is very important. Good variety and very filling. The tour was the highlight- our tour was the only one on the river and got to see many (from a far distance) probiscus monkeys. Lots of fun to see and they also give binoculars to share. The evening tour is magical seeing the fireflies and a once in a lifetime experience! The drive back is during the night and you are dropped to your hotel around 9pm safely. Tips are not forced and they do not ask for them. Totally recommend and a great trip!
Hi Greetings from OIB Tours Sdn Bhd! Thank you so much for your wonderful review!

Our team takes pride in providing a safe, clean, and memorable adventure for every guest, and it’s great to know that our attention to detail, including dietary needs, made a difference for you. We’re especially glad the fireflies and proboscis monkeys left such a lasting impression—it truly is a special part of the tour. Your kind recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! Best regards, The Management Team
