Because the experience of seeing a monkey is not I wonder if I have some luck. Watching fireflies was very fantastic. It's hard to see these days, so it was good. I was alone, but I enjoyed it. I'm glad I came. If you come to Kota Kinabalu, I think you should definitely join the tour. I felt like I couldn't do it on my own.
Such a fun time! Our guide, Kel, was so nice and very informative. Our tour included hotel pick up and drop off, a snack upon arrival, a boat ride to see monkeys and more, an authentic Malaysian buffet dinner, a trip to the beach for sky mirror pics and a beautiful sunset and ended with fireflies. Our group was able to see two kinds of monkeys as well as crocodiles and monitor lizards - we felt soooo lucky. Plus, the firefly experience felt very special. (I was a little freaked out by the fireflies, but also in awe of them.) - This was a very fun outing. Do bring bug spray/mosquito repellent and consider wearing long pants and long sleeve tops.
Excellent trip with Kelvin as our guide. He was very helpful and the transport was luxurious! I highly recommend!
Malaysian hospitality at his best. Our driver / guide James very polite, kind & friendly thanks to him our travel was very pleasant . Kalvin our english speaking guide always was there where was needed- keeping us informed at all times. We were very lucky to see big family proboscis monkeys right above our heads & big family macaques, even seen crocodile & monitor lizard. Overall experience highly recommend. Thank you guys for your services. Kind regards- keep good work
Great activity to fill up the day. I enjoyed the experience, got lots of pictures and did many activities Great guidance by Kelvin
Kelvin and Ogni were great guides! They did their best to make our vacation a great experience. The firefly tour was great - that was a once in a lifetime experience. Just a few tips to fully enjoy the tour; Bring your own water bottle; there is only a few opportunities to have water during the 8-9 hrs of tour. It is a must to bring your own water bottle. Bring cash; snack is very light and the dinner is early at 4:30pm, and you cant eat anything until you’re back at hotel at like 9:30pm. My husband and I were starving. Bring cash so that you can buy some snacks and drinks at the beach. Plan well for the toilet; the ride to the venue is long (1.5hrs) and so is the boat ride. Use toilet whenever you have a chance. Overall a great experience!!
Good experience with friendly tour guides. Excellent evening with fireflies in evidence.
Weather is always a risk in Borneo. Unfortunately we had to sit and wait for the rain to lessen, then went for a short boat ride but did not see any monkeys. Then we were just told to sit and wait and see if the weather would clear to be able to try to finish the monkey tour or do the next 2 activities. After a few hours we all asked to just be taken home. The weather is out of their control, but it would be good to have some back up activities to do instead, since this is presumably a regular occurrence. I know others were trying to at least get some of their money back, and to be honest it would seem fair as they did not need to pay for the photographers, the drivers were able to finish early etc.
The itinerary is good, the scenery is beautiful, and there are many fireflies.
I had a great tour with Kelvin who is an enthusiastic & knowledgeable guide. We saw probiscus monkeys, long tail macaques, had a great time on Sky Mirror beach. Kelvin is an excellent photographer & took some great pictures. The tour was capped off with fireworks & fireflies. It was a perfect excursion well run, fun & delivered.
