Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-kawa river cruise 1-day tour: Proboscis monkeys & fireflies - includes snacks and dinner
Guest User2025-10-13
The pickup was safe and comfortable, and the schedule seemed to have gone according to plan. However, it was a shame that the weather suddenly got bad and we didn't get to see many fireflies. However, overall, I'm leaving with good memories.★

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour
Guest User2026-01-04
Although I made the reservation the day before, the guide arrived in the hotel lobby five minutes early to pick me up. The road to the boat dock was not particularly smooth, so it was quite bumpy, but we arrived earlier than scheduled. The wait time before boarding was short, and the tour was smooth throughout, allowing me to participate with peace of mind. The first tour was an animal observation cruise, and there were many highlights, including monkeys and buffalo. It was great that we were given more time to observe them than the other nearby boats. The weather was unfortunate for sunset, but we were able to take plenty of time to take photos on the beautiful beach. On my second trip, I was able to see many more beautiful fireflies than I expected, which was a great experience. The food was also delicious. Of the various tours available, I was glad I chose this one, which was mid-priced. I highly recommend it.★

Reviews: Sabah Kawa Mangrove Forest Day Trip [Small group tour available | Mosque | Proboscis monkeys and fireflies]
Guest User2026-01-12
I think this is a very worthwhile part of Kota Kinabalu; the fireflies are beautiful, and the tour guide is excellent. Aside from the slightly bumpy ride on the main road, there are no other downsides.★

Jiulu rafting is very exciting, but not dangerous, the coach is professional and very careful, I was afraid of the water, let me enjoy this journey! Mali Mali Cultural Village also makes me very unforgettable! The tour guide Cavin is very professional and attentive, and the commentator Ray is also very professional and let me know a lot about the customs of Malaysian indigenous peoples!★

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu: Bongawan River Safari Cruise, Fireflies & City Tour with 6 Stops
Guest User2026-01-01
Very enjoyable experience despite the bad weather and traffic conditions experienced en-route to Bongowan. We did see a few monkeys, though it was difficult in the rain. However the rain stopped, and we went out again to see the fireflies. The chocolate factory tour was excellent. So were our guides, Simon and John
