Sabah Cruises

Tour guide John spoke entirely in Chinese throughout the tour because the entire group spoke Chinese. We were lucky enough to see proboscis monkeys and fireflies like a Christmas tree waterfall (my phone couldn't capture it, but the tour guide provided photos as souvenirs). Having the fireflies gently land on my hand was a wonderful experience. The tour guide also introduced Durian Street (I walked past it the day before and thought they were just regular stalls, the tour guide didn't explain it. I also learned about Sabah fruit and durian which only come from Sabah and are cheaper. If you like durian, you can try it). He also introduced Gaya Street, and after the firefly tour on weekends, you can get off here to take a stroll. Experience: Excellent

We are lucky to have bumped into 2 types of monkies, the long-tailed macaque and the proboscis, though the proboscis is a bit far from sight as they often climb up to the tree top. We are also lucky enough to see the baby crocodile, numerous bird species and even a monitor lizard lying on a coconut tree! The trip is amazing that we do not want to leave the boat! We wish to have more time on the river! Also hope that the raincoat could be included for the tour since when we arrive, it was pouring rain and we have to buy the raincoat from the local store. For other facilities like the toilet, it was better than expected. Food is not bad though not much variety. Tour guide is ok. Overall a good day spent in the countryside of Kota Kinabalu and would recommend to people who love to be in nature and wildlife.

Unforgettable experience. My guide Fazley went above and beyond. Truly made the experience even more elevated. It was absolutely brilliant. I felt really welcome and taken care of, everything from the food, accommodation to the tours.

We had so much fun on the party boat! Everything was amazing from start to finish. The activities were well organized and went smoothly, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. The crew and our boat guide were incredibly friendly, helpful, and made us feel very welcome throughout the trip. Our kids absolutely loved all the activities and had an unforgettable time. It was a wonderful experience for the whole family, and we created so many happy memories together. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun and enjoyable day out. We would definitely do it again!

originally booked this tour last minute mainly for the fireflies, but due to typhoon they had to cancel it and transfered us to a different tour— Kawa Kawa Tour which turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip! still with fireflies and river cruise but with additional farm tour with animal feeding and sunset at the beach! i’d like to commend our tourguide Adeor for making this trip memorable and fun! he lets us borrow his binoculars and has prepared raincoats just incase it rains. we were with an elderlu couple and he’s very attentive to their needs and takes photos of the animals just to show them. which is very sweet! he even took great photos and vidoes of the fireflies!

We were able to experience the lifestyles and food of each tribe. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and he shared various stories about Sabah during our travels, so we weren't bored at all.

A great offer all around! Sue was a top-notch tour guide!

Tour guide Zheng was excellent; he was very attentive in leading us through each attraction. The food on the boat trip to see the proboscis monkeys was decent, and the dinner during the sunset beach tour was also just okay. It would be even better if the meals were more substantial.

The coastal scenery was incredibly therapeutic. Our companion, Sue, was meticulous and thoughtful, patiently looking after our every need throughout the trip, from food and accommodation to getting us cold water and reminding us to queue for meals. She managed every detail, big and small, making us feel incredibly cared for. Our driver, Max, was skilled and experienced, driving smoothly and steadily with appropriate speed control, so even long journeys didn't feel tiring or bumpy. The entire trip had a relaxed and comfortable pace, with smooth and worry-free sightseeing. We enjoyed both the pleasant seaside views and the attentive, thoughtful companionship, along with reliable and safe travel. It was a truly wonderful journey.
