Reviews: Sabah Mantanani Island Day Trip [Limited-Time Special Offer | New Resort | Optional Diving/Mangrove Retreat]
Guest User2026-08-19
The itinerary was well-planned, with a car picking us up from the hotel in the morning. We transferred to a speedboat at the pier to go to Mantanani Island. The guide created a lively atmosphere, and the snorkeling was fantastic – we saw many small fish; it was my first time there and it was a wonderful experience. In the afternoon, we saw proboscis monkeys and macaques in the mangrove forest. In the evening, we watched the most beautiful sunset and saw ironwork fireworks on the beach. We returned to the mangrove forest in the evening, where fireflies twinkled, and the sky was dotted with stars. Overall, it was great!

Reviews: 1-day tour to Mantanani Islands in Kota Kinabalu Sabah · Snorkeling and scuba diving · Kawa-kawa river cruise fireflies
Guest User2026-09-20
We chose the Mantanani Island + Mangrove Forest Firefly tour, recommended by Xia Ya when we inquired. The itinerary was quite full and a bit tiring, but we had a great time. The weather was great and the water was very clear on the day we went snorkeling. The fireflies at night were incredibly bright, the kind you could easily photograph with your phone. The guide would lead them over. The guide spoke Mandarin, English, and some other languages, which was great.

Reviews: Sabah Mount Kinabalu Dairy Farm Day Trip + ATV/Paragliding optional + Rafflesia roasted wild boar (optional, at your own expense)
Guest User2026-08-12
My day trip to Mount Kinabalu was the happiest day of my trip to Kota Kinabalu! I've seen many beautiful oceans around the world, but a tropical rainforest is a rare treat. It was a wonderful and enriching day. Our guide, Ali, was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. I was traveling alone, and he took great care of me throughout the entire trip! The Mount Kinabalu viewpoint was breathtaking, the ATV experience was thrilling, the search for Rafflesia flowers was fascinating, the fruit market was delicious, and the dairy farm was absolutely stunning—it felt like a Malaysian version of Xinjiang! The roasted pork on the way down the mountain was also amazing! A visit to Mount Kinabalu is a must when in Kota Kinabalu; with the ocean on one side and the rainforest on the other, it was an unforgettable experience.

Reviews: Sabah Kawa Mangrove Forest Day Trip [Small group tour available | Mosque | Proboscis monkeys and fireflies]
Guest User2026-10-10
The overall itinerary was rich and fulfilling, though the journey was quite long. Upon arrival at the pier, we first watched a special performance, then headed to find proboscis monkeys, followed by a breathtaking sunset and a spectacular display of metalwork. After returning to the pier for dinner, we set off in the evening to search for fireflies. We were very lucky; we successfully saw proboscis monkeys, proboscis monkeys, and fireflies – a truly rewarding trip. The only minor drawback was the limited time for water exploration. Our boat only circled the main channel, and while we saw other boats venturing into deeper waters, we couldn't go as far as we wanted, which was a slight disappointment.
