We enjoyed our guided tour very much. Francis, our guide, was very knowledgeable and interactive. He picked us up on time and transfer to boat was smooth. Boat ride was great and we learnt a lot about mangrove and it's importance to environment. We also saw Egret birds and monkeys. Highly recommended especially for family and children.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience on the Sungai Lebam River Cruise! From the moment we were picked up, the service was seamless and professional. The transfer was comfortable, punctual, and made the entire journey stress-free. The river cruise itself was a serene escape into nature. The lush mangroves, tranquil waters, and diverse wildlife created a picturesque and memorable setting. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing fascinating insights about the ecosystem and its inhabitants, which added depth to the experience. The highlight of the tour was like stepping into a magical realm. It was a breathtaking and peaceful moment that will stay with me for years. Overall, this tour was well-organised, informative, and relaxing—a perfect mix for anyone looking to explore the beauty of Sungai Lebam. Highly recommend this to families, couples, or anyone seeking a unique and enchanting adventure in Desaru! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We really enjoyed the river trip, which is very educational, all thanks to the amazing guide, Shahrool. He is also very humorous and good with the kids too. We learned a lot about the wild animals and mangrove trees during the trip, like a baby crocodile sounds like a duck when it’s calling for its mother, and the mangrove sapling is an amazing water filter. In fact the mangrove absorbs more carbon than the Amazon rainforest! We have become a strong believer in mangrove now. We highly recommend anyone to go for this trip.

One of the highlights of our trip to Desaru, it really was money well spent for the experience we had. Our guide, Ainnur, was approachable and prompt with communications, and knowledgeable. We had the luxury of going on a "private tour" for that day as we were the only ones attending. Our van and boat captain, including Shawn (hope I spelled the name correctly) who was leading the kayakers, were all very friendly, and taught us so much about the Lebam river. The river is beautiful, with a rich biodiversity, and we really enjoyed the opportunity to observe nature from up-close but also at enough distance to not disturb their way of life. Wish we were able to stay out for longer but we were met with heavy rain in the monsoon season. Trip can still go ahead with light rain, but not with lightning risk or heavy rain. The whole process of being picked up at Westin Desaru to being dropped off at the same place was seamless. Would definitely sign up for another cruise with them the next time we're in Desaru, and would highly recommend any nature lover to book a trip with JungleWalla.
