What to expect
Located about 112km northeast of Kota Kinabalu, Kawa Kawa is an enchanting little village and, for most visitors, love at first sight. The village's vivid greenery and beautiful landscapes serve as the perfect playground for Malaysia's famous Proboscis Monkeys. The untouched natural oasis is a great place to spot rare wildlife, so hop on a river cruise that takes you past their habitats and keep your camera ready. After a delicious dinner of local delicacies, you will even get to see an evening fireflies show, watching the little light bugs fire up the sky.











Reviews
Not bad, very laid-back atmosphere. I didn’t see the proboscis monkey this time, but I saw a small crocodile by the river. The beach at dusk was amazing
The tour guide was very good and introduced the itinerary in detail. Every attraction was completed on time. I will order again next time and the price is reasonable.
We had overall a nice day. The car drive was a little longer then we expected, but that depends on how many drop offs they have to do (and where). We had too little time to visit the mosk, if we left at 12 instead of 1 we could have made it. Buttt the boat trips were nice! We saw a crocodile and some monkeys (not the ones with the big noses). And the fire fly boattrip was also really special. The diner was also good and we saw a very nice sunset.
The tour guide Victor was very nice and the fireflies were unforgettable. Our family had a great day.
The tour guide and driver was very professional and kind. Although it was unlikely to see proboscis monkeys when it rained, we also saw cute long-tailed monkeys and beautiful kingfishers. But it was also because of the rain that it was particularly beautiful to see fireflies at night and the sunset during dinner. It's so beautiful that it's unreal
I went to Sabah 10 years ago, and I went to the tourist center to report the price. After 10 years, I returned to this place with klook. It is too convenient for the science and technology development group. This group is too easy. It ’s about 10 people in my group. The group is super nice and simple. Afternoon tea, we will see the proboscis monkey. Unfortunately, the nearby high-speed proboscis monkeys under construction seem to have been destroyed. We can only see a few fireflies, which is super beneficial. A Zhang, a guide who speaks Chinese with 100 points
The itinerary is rich and smooth, and the whole day is very fulfilling. The tour guide happens to speak Chinese and there is no problem in communication. However, the number of people in the whole group is too many and the quality of tourists is mixed. If you are interested, it is recommended to buy a small group and set off. It should be better Comfortable. It's a pity that we didn't see the proboscis monkeys, and the fireflies seemed to be affected by the bright moonlight. We only saw some...
It rained heavily that afternoon, and I was still worried about whether I would not be able to see fireflies at night, but luckily, there were a lot of fireflies at night. However, it is recommended to sit in the back when taking a boat, otherwise you will not get wet by the river water.
Nelson tour guide is wonderful 💯We had a great day seeing double rainbow + beautiful sunset. feeling like a dream to see so many fireflies.
Exceptional tour to watch fireflies. Attentive and nice local tourguide is definitely a plus. Whole family enjoyed the tour very much.
