Sabah Cruises

This was one of the most anticipated parts of our Sabah trip! First, our guide, Xiao Lai, was excellent. He introduced us to a lot of Sabah's culture and attractions along the way, and even helped us take beautiful photos. Throughout the entire trip, we had snacks, afternoon tea, and dinner, so we were constantly fed and never had to worry about being hungry. Next, during the river cruise, we saw wild animals like proboscis monkeys, long-tailed macaques, and lizards. Finally, the highlight was the fireflies. The night sky and the twinkling fireflies in the trees complemented each other beautifully. It was truly stunning! A very worthwhile experience.

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!

This is the highlight of my 5-night, 6-day trip to Kota Kinabalu. The wildlife experience was a bit disappointing because I only saw long-tailed monkeys, not the proboscis monkeys I was hoping for. However, the sunset viewing and the firefly cruise at night were truly amazing. It was a beautiful and wonderful experience, including a fantastic fire show. I highly recommend it, even if you're traveling with children, as it's a great experience for them too.

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.

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.

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.

It was a very enjoyable trip, big thanks to our guide, Sue Yee and driver, Max. Sue Yee gave very good explanations about the tour, and the food prepared by the locals was very good! Although Weston Wetlands is a distance away from the city, about 2-2.5 hours away, it was well worth it! Less crowd compared to other locations, we spotted a lot of monkeys (proboscis, silver-faced, long-tailed), birds and crocodiles. Firefly trip in the evening was very beautiful! Highly recommended!

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!

Mr. Sulani, our guide and driver, was very kind and excellent. When we saw water buffalo walking along the way, he stopped to explain things to us, and he also provided various explanations throughout the journey. Jeffrey, our cruise guide, was a veteran with extensive knowledge, which made us feel very comfortable participating. We saw water buffalo, proboscis monkeys, long-tailed macaques, crocodiles, hornbills, and fireflies. The banana fritters at tea time were delicious, and the dinner buffet was also excellent! Plus, we arrived back at the hotel at 9:10 PM, which was great since we had children with us!
