Highly recommend. The snorkeling tour is very professional and nice.Firstly, we took a boat to Mengalum Island and enjoyed the beach there. About 11:00AM, we went to two beautiful snorkeling spots in total. There were all kinds of fish in both places, and we also saw starfish and octopusesšŸ™.After lunch, just enjoyed chill time on the beachšŸ–ļø. I had a very wonderful and memorable experience in Mengalum Island. Happy new year and all the best wishes to the one who is reading the review😬

Baoqing was truly our guide of the day. Although I’m a local and have joined multiple tour agencies to Mantanani Island and the Kawa-Kawa River, Baoqing stood out as an exceptional tour guide who showed me how much difference a good guide can make to a trip. He provided clear and detailed information from the beginning until the end, including estimated travel times to each destination, which is especially important for foreign tourists. What impressed me most was his attentiveness during the snorkelling session, where he took the initiative to ask who could and could not swim—something none of the other tour agencies I’ve experienced ever considered. The tour assistants were friendly, patient, and very considerate despite doing this work repeatedly, and their professionalism truly enhanced the overall experience. For firefly-watching tours, feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to help upgrade and enhance the tourist experience, as I studied firefly tourism during my master’s degree.

it was well arranged. we had pickup service and a guide to guide us through the day. the boat ride is a bit chaotic so it was good we had a guide to bring us through. snorkelling is great. managed to see a stingray and few varieties of fishes at manukan island. sapi was a little bit too crowded.

Great tour!!! We were picked up at our hotel and brought to the pier. Our boat driver was waiting for us there. We boarded our private boat and made a quick journey to a beautiful cove with crystal clear water and so much marine life to see!!! This was easy snorkeling great for families. life jackets and gear provided and calm water with places to stand if you wanted to or you could swim out further to adventure more if you wanted as well. The lunch was at a fish farm and we were delighted to be shown around the different tanks. We were able to hold a horseshoe crab and a little buffer fish and we even pet a friendly shark. My 14 and 11 year old were delighted by all of it but it would have been great with younger or older kiddos too. The boat took us by tree covered areas of flying foxes too! Highly recommend!

Easy booking, suitable for first timer and non swimmer friendly. We were picked up from the hotel on time, greeted by our friendly guides. They brought us to the sea near mamutik island and we snorkelled around there, away from the crowd. there were lots of clown and dory fishes to spot. After done snorkeling, we were given free time to lounge around the island before having lunch. We get to pick our choice of lunch and the foods are good. I enjoyed the time we spent and the duration is just nice as we can fit in other activities in the evening. Another point to take note, the guides constantly looking after us ensuring our safety and also help us took pictures with their GoPro. Overall, it's a very enjoying experience 😁

One of my favorite tours ever! Beach is so beautiful. Wayne did a great job in accommodating us from start to finish. The vibe of the beach is so nice and food is good too, will do this again when we visit Sabah!

The one-day tour was exceptionally well-organized, it felt like not a single minute was wasted... Mantanani Island's white sand and turquoise sea are truly beautiful. The crew members fed a lot of bread at the snorkeling spot, attracting many beautiful fish, making me feel surrounded by schools of fish. In the evening, the mangrove night tour allowed us to see many fireflies. The crew members used lights to attract the fireflies, as if we were in a fairy tale world. We even saw a tree covered in fireflies, resembling a Christmas tree with lights, corresponding to the twinkling stars in the sky, washing away the fatigue of busy city life for every tourist. The only regret was not seeing proboscis monkeys during the afternoon mangrove cruise, but travel is all about having some regrets, so we have the motivation for our next trip! Secondly, I must emphasize how enthusiastic, gentle, polite, and experienced the tour guide Nelson was. He took great care of us throughout the entire trip, arranging for us to sit in the best spots on the boat for optimal viewing and travel experience. He helped us watch our belongings so we could take photos with peace of mind. A big thumbs up for Nelson! šŸ‘
