Exploração do rio e Mangrove Nature Tour por caiaque

We celebrated my birthday with a mangrove kayaking session at Outdoor Gate Solutions in Sepang, and honestly, it turned out to be such a beautiful and memorable experience. We booked just one day before since it was a sudden weekday plan. As foreigners living in Malaysia on an employment pass, we requested if they could offer us the local rate, which they kindly considered. While I personally felt the pricing was slightly on the expensive side, the overall experience made it worth it for a special occasion. We chose the evening slot, and I would highly recommend that. The weather was much more comfortable, the sun wasn’t harsh, and the sunset during the return journey was absolutely stunning. I honestly cannot imagine doing this in the hot morning sun. The guides were amazing. One was a trainee from the USA, and the other guide, Mr. Art, truly made the experience special. He was experienced, friendly, patient, and made us feel very safe and comfortable throughout the trip. Before starting, they gave us proper kayaking and safety instructions. One of the BEST parts was that kids were allowed. My son is 6 years old, and many other kayaking places we checked earlier — even simple lake kayaking — had a minimum age requirement of 7. So this was a huge plus for families with younger children. They also provided a place to safely keep bags and belongings before the trip. A few important tips for anyone planning to go: * DEFINITELY carry a waterproof phone case. * Wear quick-dry clothes, especially for the lower body. * Avoid cotton clothing because you WILL get wet. * Carry a small plastic/polythene bag for valuables. * Don’t bring passports or unnecessary documents. * Carry mosquito repellent spray. * Bring extra snacks and water if you get hungry easily. Even though the kayak doesn’t get splashed heavily by waves, the water from paddling continuously drips and splashes onto your legs and lower clothes, so expect to get drenched. The journey into the mangroves was beautiful. On the way in, we were kayaking against the water current, which was slightly challenging at some points, but Mr. Art guided us very well throughout. He explained the mangrove ecosystem, different trees, and the importance of the area, which made the trip more meaningful. The first mangrove spot surprisingly had very few mosquitoes, but the second area definitely had some, so covering up is a good idea. They also served us dragon fruit and Assam boi drink while we relaxed in the mangroves,it was like a small picnic On the return journey, we enjoyed one of the most beautiful sunsets. The guides also took photos for us and they later sent us the photos through an online link after the trip. After returning, we were given the option of pizza or BBQ. We chose the pizza, which was more like mini bun pizzas along with drinks. It was nice as a light snack after kayaking, but not filling enough for a full meal, so we still went out for dinner afterward. The facilities are basic but clean. They have changing rooms, a simple toilet with water/bidet facilities, and even some very basic beds if someone wants to stay overnight. Don’t expect luxury — it’s more of a rustic outdoor experience. One important thing to note: you need to walk across a bridge to reach the place, and during the evening the bridge slowly starts getting submerged by water. By around 7:40 PM, you should leave the premises walking on the water ‘ Overall, it was a lovely experience and something very different from the usual lake kayaking in places like Putrajaya. If you want a unique outdoor activity for a special occasion, especially with family, I would definitely recommend trying this mangrove kayaking experience.

The sunrise mangrove tour was a beautiful experience. Groovy Floating House is located near a unique and extremely beautiful mangrove river with tons of active wildlife (monkeys, giant lizards & otters!!) that live near the waters of the house. The house provides a cozy atmosphere on the river which feels so much like a home and the same goes for with the food provided because the homemade banana Ice-cream and pizza was surprisingly delicious. Aviee as a guide and host did I wonderful job touring being extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding areas history and wildlife she seemed beyond passionate about the area. The kayaking proved to be much more of a nature tour then harder journey so I believe this would be the perfect activity for families. I would highly recommend this to anybody who wants to experience all the mangroves and jungle right outside KL not too far outside the city while having such a fun time. Highly recommend for anybody to book a trip and stay a night or two!

Amazing sunrise kayak tour! The scenery was beautiful and peaceful. Our guide was really great : she really cares about the environment and knows everything about the ecosystems and the wildlife. We were lucky to see egrets, eagles, monkeys, crabs and monitor lizards. Her explanations were clear and very interesting. We also had a lovely break under the trees where we ate delicious dragon fruit. Highly recommend this experience!

Amazing experience! We had a wonderful time with a nice guide who told us lots of interesting things. We saw monkeys and birds, even eagles!

Went on the River Exploration and Mangrove Nature Tour with my friends and lowkey it was one of the most surreal nature days ever. From start to finish, the vibes were just immaculate — like, imagine gliding through a natural green tunnel, birds chirping, and the water reflecting all that lush mangrove goodness.  We kayaked for a few hours thru winding channels surrounded by twisted roots and dense foliage — total nature immersion. The water was calm so even if you’re a total newbie like some of us, it was super chill and not intimidating at all. Guide was super friendly and dropped all kinds of interesting facts about the ecosystem, so it felt way more than just paddling.  Wildlife sightings were a legit highlight — we saw kingfishers, crabs, and even mudskippers doing their thing. The whole crew was stoked snapping pics and just soaking in the serenity. Midway we had a quick picnic break with dragon fruit and juice which was such a vibe after all that paddling.  Overall, this tour was 100% worth it — beautiful scenery, solid guides, and good laughs with friends. If you wanna escape the usual beach scene and get into something more magical and lowkey, this is def the move.

A beautiful experience for people who love Wildlife and plants. You will learn a lot, while having a good time kayaking. The Guids will try to give you the best time possible, doesn‘t matter if you‘re experienced or total beginner. Have fun !
