Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour
Guest User2025-11-27
Our tour guide was the handsome Jeff! I'd heard so much about him while researching. Meeting him today, he truly lived up to everyone's reputation. He's an "encyclopedic" guide! From the vast world to ancient and modern times, from astronomy to geography, Jeff knows everything. He had a great chat and arranged the itinerary perfectly! We were lucky enough to see proboscis monkeys and fireflies. It was a private tour during the off-season. I highly recommend this trip. The afternoon tea and dinner were simple, but the food was delicious. Everyone from the customer service to the guide was sincere and enthusiastic. Thank you for your company and help. I'd love to work with you again next time!★

The sunsets in Malaysia are truly world-renowned and absolutely stunning. Our tour guide also directed us to see the animals and helped us find the best viewing spots. The whole experience was very comfortable, and the price was reasonable with great value for money.★

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.★

The itinerary was well-planned, and the round-trip transportation was convenient, saving me a lot of trouble! The guide was patient, and the snorkeling gear was clean. Even beginners got used to it in just 5 minutes. Underwater, you could clearly see clownfish and colorful corals. Overall, it deserves five stars!
