Reviews: Mari-Mari Cultural Village Half Day Shared Tour with Lunch
Guest User2026-06-07
It is not cheap, but worth for money.  For busy season that might require schedule adjustments, better make reservation directly to the facility. (it took us a while to confirm our reservation after kindly adjusted by Trip.com.) In spite of heavy crowd of guests, the operation was super organized and we were well attended and kept entertained all thru the 3 hours. We all (including 6yo/9yo kids) were so satisfied with this experience. The only issue we faced was the car parking. (won't be o problem as far as you use their pickup.) Please bring mosquito spray, or get a very good organic one at the sight s(RM 15).

Reviews: Mari Mari Cultural Village Half Day Tour | Immerse yourself in the cultural journey
Guest User2026-08-07
I made a reservation for Mari Mari Folk Village the day before. They sent me a confirmation by 6 PM on the day of arrival every day. I saw lizards, toured the village, tasted food and drinks, did some henna at the end, and watched a performance. It is a bit of a distance, but if you have plenty of time, it is worth visiting at least once.

Reviews: 1-day tour to Sabah royal bay sky mirror mangrove | proboscis monkeys and fireflies/private small group optional
Guest User2026-10-08
It's a pity we didn't get to see the animals up close this trip, but seeing the fireflies at night was incredibly romantic! Our guide, my cousin, gave us so many surprises! He was incredibly thoughtful and attentive, bringing a small speaker to play music the whole way, making the trip relaxed and enjoyable. At the beach, he even offered to take amazing photos for us; his photography skills are superb, and he knows exactly how to frame the shots. Overall, I highly recommend the experience!

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Weston Mangrove Half-Day Tour with Fireflies and Sky Mirror at Kawa Weston
Guest User2026-09-29
The journey was a bit long, but well worth it! Xia Ya's product recommendations were fantastic! She was incredibly patient in explaining the differences between the products and kept us updated on event information, which made us feel very reassured while traveling abroad. 👍 The guide said we were extremely lucky; the weather cooperated perfectly at all the key points of the itinerary. While searching for proboscis monkeys, we also saw water buffalo, and quickly found the proboscis monkeys. Then we saw long-tailed gibbons. The proboscis monkeys were very gentle, while the long-tailed gibbons were quite noisy—such a stark contrast between the two monkeys! Kota Kinabalu had been shrouded in smog for a month without a sunset, but on the day we saw it, something magical happened—the sun managed to peek out and we witnessed a beautiful sunset. Although it was only about 10% of what it used to be, we were all very satisfied! The fireflies at night were absolutely breathtaking. They truly only appear in places with exceptionally healthy ecosystems. You could feel how much the people in the reserve care for the environment; they reminded us of many important things to be aware of. The fireflies were truly magical!

Reviews: 1-day tour to Mengalum Island in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah · Snorkeling · Love of Mengalum RIA · Skymirror mangrove fireflies
Guest User2026-04-04
Mantanani Island is absolutely gorgeous! I was lucky enough to be assigned to boat number 5, and the atmosphere on the boat was fantastic!! The "jelly-like" sea at Mantanani Island truly lives up to its name; the water is crystal clear, the sand is white and fine, and we saw so many corals and small fish while snorkeling – it was a truly therapeutic day! I must give a shout-out to the young man who accompanied us; he started performing as soon as we boarded, was incredibly enthusiastic, and amazing at creating a lively atmosphere. His service was attentive and thoughtful throughout, patiently guiding us and ensuring everyone's safety while snorkeling. The biggest surprise was the afternoon dance on the beach – his dance moves were amazing, full of energy, instantly bringing the atmosphere to a climax. Everyone joined in the fun, making our otherwise relaxing island trip incredibly joyful and unforgettable! The itinerary was well-planned, and the lunch was great with fish, shrimp, and crab! The boat trip was comfortable, and the overall experience was perfect. I highly recommend Mantanani Island! And a huge shout-out to the young man on boat number 5! Excellent service, energetic, and having him with us made the trip so much fun – I'll definitely recommend it to my friends! A word of warning to everyone: I went to RIA the first day and thought it was great, so I planned to try it the next day! Oh my god, it was a world of difference! RIA was terrible! They had nothing! Even the food was rubbish! It was hot and dirty, and a bottle of Coke cost 15 dollars, while at RIA it was only 5 dollars and water was unlimited! The Wi-Fi at RIA was free! At RIA, you had to buy a Coke to connect! Everyone, definitely go to RIA, don't go to RIA!
