Reviews: Sabah Kota Kinabalu Sapi & Mamutik Island Snorkeling Shared Day Tour Includes Lunch & Optional Water Activities
Guest User2025-07-18
Our guide, Tommy, was a local Chinese and very enthusiastic. Our accompanying guide, Winston, was also very helpful and didn't pressure us to participate in any optional excursions. We returned early because we were too tired and skipped one of the afternoon island excursions, signing a confirmation. The sea was rough with strong winds, making the speedboat trip bumpy and choppy, but the children were incredibly excited. The island snorkeling was similar to other similar activities; we saw many small fish. Unfortunately, the ferry service to Mantanani Island and Botanica Island was cancelled due to rain a few days prior. Actually, you can buy boat tickets at Jeston Pier to get to the islands without a tour.
Lunch is included today, but we need to meet at the designated meeting point; please take a taxi to the meeting point yourself.★

Reviews: Sabah Kota Kinabalu Sapi & Manukan Island Snorkeling Shared Day Tour optional Watersport
Guest User2025-12-19
Our guide, Tommy, was very friendly and helpful. Sapi Island and Manuka Island are both beautiful. However, the lack of fish during snorkeling was disappointing, so we had to pay separately for sea walking. Be sure to try parasailing for an additional fee. It'll be a wonderful memory.
