The beaches are beautiful, but unfortunately we weren't allowed to swim without life jackets anywhere.★

Reviews: Mengalum Island snorkeling 1-day tour includes lunch
Guest User2025-08-01
It's a fantastic island, a pineal room. I got a lot of life shots. It's not easy to take a boat for an hour, but if you look at the beautiful island, all this effort will be rewarded. However, most of them are Chinese. I hope you consider this.★

Reviews: Sabah Weston Wetland River Cruise, Proboscis Monkey, Sunset & Fireflies 1 Day Shared Tour
Guest User2025-09-04
We saw two types of monkeys and a large crocodile. We also saw a lot of fireflies, which was fantastic. Above all, the sunset was amazing. It was the best I've ever seen. The boat tour was a really great experience! The car ride was 2.5 hours each way, and it was quite shaky and painful. That was the only negative point. Overall, I would recommend this trip to others.★

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Day Tour: Proboscis Monkeys, Fireflies, Afternoon Tea & Dinner Experience
Guest User2025-10-22
I had a great time on my tour with Jeff! I was pleased he accepted solo travellers for a start as many require min 2 people to book, especially when I was the only booking for that day!! Upon arrival the weather was terrible and I was worried we could not continue. However, Jeff kept me updated throughout and we patiently waited for the rain to stop which thankfully it did. After an earlier dinner we continued with the scheduled itinerary. The boat drivers were great at making sure we could all get a good view of the monkeys, wildlife and fireflies aswell. Jeff is extremely knowledgeable, great fun and I highly recommend you book this trip when visiting KK. Thanks Jeff!!★

Reviews: Desa Dairy Farm + Poring + Mount Kinabalu Observation Desk [Poring entrance fee not included/Lunch included]
Guest User2025-08-16
Ordered the trip via trip.com and the driver arrived at a different hotel. No one called, no one answered our calls. Fortunately, the trip.com assisted with solving the issue pretty well and we went on this trip on a different day. The guide, Ken, was a lot of fun. The trip itself was interesting despite the long distances. We bought yogurt and cheese on the farm, tasted good. The lunch was good.★

Reviews: Bongawan Mangrove Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies Tour with Sky Mirror - Solo Traveler Option
Guest User2025-07-08
James was the best travel guide! Best driver, pro photographer and the same skills, passionate tour description! We were getting into the tour and had no choice but to be impressed. Because of his efforts, we were very satisfied with the time we spent on a day. Yin Yee, who supports advance contact, was also accurate and friendly, so we were able to conduct a tour without any problems.
