Tour des lucioles de Kuala Selangor

A fun experience if you have a spare afternoon/ evening to fill while in KL. I wouldn’t say it’s a must-do but it’s a nice family / couples activity. For me the highlight wasn’t actually the fireflies, it was two other things: The stop for the monkeys, having them on your shoulder and seeing the orange baby monkeys. Very cute! The second is the meal before the boat trip. I guess it can’t be advertised here because it’s not part of the package, but the guide recommended this absolutely fantastic place with fresh seafood right on the river. We had a beer and watched the sun set on the river. Beautiful, and it was a friendly family run place. They do good chicken dishes too if fish isn’t your thing. The fireflies are cool, but like many people say, not worth trying to get good pictures of. I think we should have left later, when it was properly dark. We went just after sun set and they weren’t as visible. The blue plankton is an optional extra- for us, not worth it, but maybe we just weren’t as lucky! The guide (sorry I can’t remember his name!) was excellent, very informative and friendly. We needed to stop at a supermarket on the way back and he dropped us off at the nearest one to our hotel.

Make it clear that the view of the "blue tears" is not included since we had to pay extra, although it was not worth it at all. The photo of the fireflies is misleading because they do not fly, they are still in the trees; even so, it was a beautiful spectacle.

Good trip, beautiful Hindu Temple; fireflies were a little but underwhelming. Guide/driver was very nice and knowledgeable

First rate tour. Our guide, LG, was on time, friendly and very informative. The minibus was clean and comfortable. The fireflies are quite a distance from Kuala Lumpur, but this tour is broken up nicely with a stop at the Hindu temple and then to see the monkeys. Dinner before the boat and fireflies was good value and plentiful. Thank you LG for a memorable tour.

The trip as such was perfectly organized. The driver was very good and responded to all the wishes of the passengers in a friendly manner. Unfortunately, the event on site was rather disappointing overall. We drove about 4 - 5 minutes past the shore with the fireflies. Then the boat turns and the other side of the boat could see something. The blue glow in the water actually did not exist. Nets were issued that could produce a very faint and extremely short-lived blue glitter when moved vigorously. Photographically, the whole thing could not be captured. The photos, in which entire water areas are colored blue, advertised an event that did not even begin to take place. Finally, 4 - 5 minutes of fireflies remain stagnant, which is simply no longer a relation for 2 hours 30 minutes of driving time.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. The whole trip was very well organized, smooth and enjoyable. The itinerary was great, timing was well managed, and the experience fully met expectations. A special thank you to our driver, LG, who was outstanding — professional, punctual, friendly and very helpful throughout the day. He made the trip even better and deserves 10/10. Highly recommended.

LG was an excellent guide throughout! Good and interesting stops along the way to the Salengor River, and Fireflies were brilliant!

Absolutely gorgeous the whole experience was stunning the temple the monkeys the driver all of it highly recommend it

The guide was always kind and he gave me all the information that I wanted to have, before and during the tour!

Had an amazing tour yesterday with L G We visited a Hindu temple, we saw and fed the monkeys and the long established British lighthouse that’s still in operation Onto a fishing village to wait for dusk and taken by speedboat to see the firefly’s. Fabulous trip LG was helpful and an informative tour guide. C Mills
