Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour
Guest User2026-02-23
Our tour guide, Xiao Chen, was lovely and wonderful! There were more places to eat than we expected, and fresh coconuts were available for purchase. The mountain road was a bit bumpy, but that was unavoidable given the environment. There was also a free farm where we could feed the animals, which were very cute. The staff on the boats to see the monkeys and fireflies were all very cheerful. It was a very worthwhile trip!★

Reviews: Royal Bay Sky Mirror Mangrove Day Tour in Sabah [Proboscis Monkeys/Fireflies/Beach Sunset]
Guest User2026-04-04
Amazing day! We loved every minute! Excellent value for money too. The car collected us from the hotel then took us to see the floating mosque. We then went to the river cruise where cool drinks and snacks were ready for us. We saw proboscis monkeys, a crocodile, huge monitor lizards and fireflies. Spending time at the beach was nice - amazing fire show and beautiful sunset photos. Robert, our guide, was truly outstanding! He couldn’t have done anything more for us. This trip was a highlight of our holiday. Thank you.★

Reviews: Sapi Island Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Malaysia + Manukan Island Day Tour [Snorkeling + Seafood Buffet Lunch + Water Attractions & Tours]
Guest User2026-03-23
The tour guide was very enthusiastic and attentive. The food on the island was delicious; I especially loved the crab – it was incredibly fresh. The tour was very beginner-friendly, particularly for those wanting to try snorkeling. You could buy your own mask and try it out. If you didn't want to snorkel, just taking photos and enjoying the breeze was quite pleasant. You could also bring your own towel and lie on the beach under the trees – so comfortable!★

Reviews: Kinabalu ATV335 | Sabah Kinabalu Dairy Farm Day Trip + Paragliding + Optional Rafflesia Flower Tour (at your own expense)
Guest User2026-04-23
The itinerary wasn't strictly according to a schedule, but it was quite reasonable. The time was also very tight. The tour guide was very experienced. The ATV ride wasn't suitable for someone like me with little strength; I couldn't control it, but thankfully the driver helped me, so I experienced it from the back seat.
I saw three Rafflesia flowers, but the price has gone up; the entrance fee is 30 Malaysian Ringgit (it used to be 20). You absolutely must try the black pork; it's so delicious, with a charcoal-grilled flavor! Great value for money!
