Kota Kinabalu

Această excursie a fost cu siguranță punctul culminant al vacanței mele de 6 zile în KK. Excursia a fost bine organizată, cu un itinerariu excelent și servicii impecabile din partea întregului echipaj. Am fost preluați la timp de la hotelul nostru din KK de către Jordan, care a condus lin și a fost foarte amabil. Au existat mai multe opțiuni de băuturi pentru ceaiul de după-amiază (apă rece, suc, cafea), precum și terci de fasole mung și gogoși de banane, care au fost foarte bune. În timpul croazierei, am văzut maimuțe proboscis, maimuțe cu coadă lungă, șopârle monitor și crocodili. Ghidul nostru, Garry, a fost amuzant, bine informat și a explicat excelent despre animale și zonele înconjurătoare. Ne-am întors la debarcader pentru o cină timpurie cu bufet de bucătărie malaeziană, iar mâncarea a fost delicioasă. Apoi am continuat croaziera spre plaja oglindă și am făcut câteva fotografii. Pe drumul de întoarcere, am văzut o mulțime de licurici în copaci, iar Garry și echipajul au fost pricepuți în a-i invita să zboare în jurul nostru, pe barcă. Jordan ne-a condus apoi înapoi în siguranță și confortabil la KK. În general, acest tur este foarte recomandat!

Very nice and cosy island hopping experience. The boat ride was smooth and windy, the weather was very good that day. Both Sapi and Manukan Island had very nice beach. The tour guide, Nanak, is very friendly and answered all our question, also helped everyone take care of their bags and things. The banana boat and snorkelling are must go. Managed to see quite a few species of fish, snorkelling is limited to the areas near the shore but can spot quite a lot of fish. The sun is very strong so must apply sunscreen to prevent sunburn. Time was also sufficient and ended quite early at 3pm.

We were a group ranging from 8yrs to 71yrs. This trip was great for all! The transfer was comfortable, we saw Proboscis and long tail macaques, crocodiles and birds. The sunset was breathtaking and the fireflies were so beautiful. on the beach, you can pay extra to ride a small ATV which was likely the highlight of my 12yr old’s day! Our guide, Cathy was wonderful, we learned a lot about the mangroves and the creatures because of her!

Am avut o experiență minunată în această excursie de snorkeling. A fost prima noastră dată când am făcut snorkeling, iar totul a fost bine organizat de la început până la sfârșit. Ghidul nostru, Birdy, a fost prietenos, informat și atent pe tot parcursul zilei, făcându-ne să ne simțim în siguranță și confortabil. Locurile de snorkeling au fost frumoase și ne-am bucurat din plin să explorăm viața marină și apele cristaline. Apreciem în mod special răbdarea lui Birdy, îndrumarea utilă și serviciile excelente, care au făcut ca prima noastră experiență de snorkeling să fie plăcută și lipsită de stres. Îți mulțumim, Birdy, pentru că ai făcut din prima noastră aventură de snorkeling una atât de memorabilă. Recomandăm cu căldură acest tur oricui vizitează Kota Kinabalu. O experiență cu adevărat de neuitat și unul dintre punctele culminante ale călătoriei noastre în Sabah!

We participated in the company trip with 8 people. We were the only Japanese, and most of the other tourists on Mantanani Island were Chinese. Our guide, Xiao Zhong, was particularly excellent. We were initially concerned because the tour was primarily in Chinese and English, but he used a translation device to explain everything to us. The snorkeling, proboscis monkeys, and fireflies were wonderful. Although we had to wait for over 30 minutes due to a sudden downpour, it was an amazing experience overall.

our guide (from wavehunter) was da best! he did not just paddle us downstream, but played many fun games, showed us good spots to jump from the rocks and swim, and did not rush to finish! though it was the dry season and the rapids were only at grade 1, we had a fantastic time and highly recommend wavehunters for all levels of thrill seekers. our photographer was great too, standing in the water at times and the pictures were wonderful. thanks!

Five-star experience! Five-star trip! A perfect journey! Our tour guide, Sue, contacted us via WhatsApp the night before and was incredibly patient in answering all our questions. She also helped us take photos throughout the trip without any hesitation. Some of our group members had very high expectations for photography, and Sue was surprisingly patient in helping them get their shots. It's worth noting that our group was a combination of several smaller groups, but all the guides knew each other, so they were great at creating a lively atmosphere. One guide constantly played music through a loudspeaker, which really boosted the mood, and they even matched the theme – for example, playing Jay Chou's "Rice Field" when we were watching fireflies! Truly professional! Be aware that the local mosquitoes are very aggressive and aren't deterred by mosquito repellent, so that's something to keep in mind. The sunset there is stunning! We had plenty of time for free activities and taking photos. My first snorkeling experience was also amazing. The only downside was that some people in our group might have been afraid of water, so we had to accommodate them and couldn't visit more spots. We ended up staying at one spot for about an hour. You can rent a locker on the island for HKD $60, but you honestly don't need to; no one is going to steal your belongings on a deserted island... Watching the fireflies is an absolutely unforgettable experience! Photos can't capture the awe-inspiring sight; you'll understand once you go! P.S. The meeting time that day was 7 AM! So it was a very early start, but totally worth it.

Recomand cu căldură. Turul de snorkeling este foarte profesionist și plăcut. Mai întâi, am luat o barcă spre Insula Mengalum și ne-am bucurat de plajă acolo. În jurul orei 11:00, am mers la două locuri frumoase de snorkeling în total. Au fost tot felul de pești în ambele locuri și am văzut, de asemenea, stele de mare și caracatițe🐙. După prânz, ne-am bucurat de timp de relaxare pe plajă🏖️. Am avut o experiență minunată și memorabilă în Insula Mengalum. La mulți ani și toate cele bune celui care citește această recenzie😬

The boat was good for the price, but the massage could be longer. It is an option for two hours. The first island is beautiful, gorgeous, and clean. The second island is a little bit short, but you can do two islands in one day. For the price, it's definitely worth it. For any first-timer, I recommend it for sure. The locals are friendly, and the food is great as well.
