Last Sunday evening, we visited the turtles on the beach at night tour. What a disappointment! First of all, the group was too large; there were too many people, causing a lot of commotion and noise. When the turtle was spotted, we were called over to visit it, and as a family, we were shocked. The turtle was not feeling comfortable, had not laid any eggs, and wanted to return to the sea. The turtle was held back by a tour employee using their feet and a stick, so that every tourist could still get a quick look. We found this sickening and undignified for the animal. We believe that you should NOT treat animals and nature in this way. We left early because we couldn't bear to watch. The children couldn't stop talking about it afterwards. Therefore, we do not recommend this tour.
Great experience in the darkness. Many fireflies that could even be caught
Fantastic night great experiences, highly recommend the beach town of cherating, their food, the locals and the magical fire flies that warm your heart with ever glow.
Had a wonderful experience with the firefly watching and mangrove discovery in Cherating. Everything was well organized, and the guide was knowledgeable. The fireflies were magical to watch, and the mangrove tour was peaceful and informative. Definitely worth the price and highly enjoyable!
Very few fireflies but sailing in the mangrove is nice. Many canoes at the same time, we even had a boat accident, more fear than harm
Hafiz was an amazing tour guide, knew his stuff and kept everyone on the verge of their chairs. The boat trip was mesmerizing, plenty of fireflies.
My friend made reservations through what app before arrival , ticket price rm45 per person for a 1 hour boat ride along the river to see fire flies ( the fire flies species here were smaller in size compare to kuala Selangor fireflies species is bigger so the lights at Selangor were like Christmas tree lights there whereby here the fireflies blinkering lights smaller but hafiz and his boatmen uses a red light to lure the fire flies come to you
1)There are MANY FireFly tours in Malaysia; Reckon this is the BEST and REAL FireFlies. SOME FireFly tours are FAKE, use LED lights as firefly, as in MUAR River Firefly tour !! 2)The tour guides are very helpful and friendly; a briefing in firefly was given prior the tour, and improve one's knowledge on firefly. 3)The cruise down Cherating river is about 30 minutes. The guide used his special light and managed to induced REAL Firefly to fly to the visitors on the Boat. This is MAGICAL !! 4)MANY Stops on different part of the Cherating river and Guide did his Magical calling for the firefly to fly towards the visitors, Which were REAL CHARM !! 5)Had visited many countries (India. Vietnam. Taiwan....) on firefly tours, this is the BEST, as Guide can Engaged with the firefly !!
highly recommended It is amazing to get so close to these glowing little ones.Some even flew into your palm. They are too tiny to be noted, but they existed.
Phone number is wrong. Pined location is not accurate. Hard to find taxi. Not easy for foreigners. But the firefly activity itself was great.
