Sabah Mga paglilibot sa bangka

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Bongawan River Cruise, Sabah Kamangha-manghang karanasan mula simula hanggang matapos. Kami ay mapalad na makakita ng parehong long-nosed monkeys at long-tailed monkeys sa tabi ng ilog, na mas nagpasaya sa cruise 🐒🌿 Napakaganda ng tanawin sa buong paglalakbay, lalo na ang paghinto sa dalampasigan na may tahimik at malawak na tanawin. Ang paglubog ng araw ay talagang nakamamangha, na ang kalangitan ay naging ginto sa ibabaw ng ilog 🌅 Ang pinakatampok para sa akin ay tiyak ang mga alitaptap sa gabi. Ang mga bakawan ay lumiwanag na parang panaginip, at isang alitaptap pa nga ang lumapag sa aking kamay — isang napakahiwagang sandali ✨ Malaking pasasalamat sa aming mga gabay na sina Gary, Edward, at Kevin sa pagiging palakaibigan, matulungin, at sa pagpapasimple at pagpapasaya sa buong biyahe. Kung nasa Sabah ka, ito ay tiyak na isang aktibidad na dapat gawin. Nakakarelax, maganda, at hindi malilimutan.

Napakaganda at komportableng karanasan sa island hopping. Ang biyahe sa bangka ay maayos at mahangin, napakaganda ng panahon noong araw na iyon. Parehong may napakagandang dalampasigan ang Sapi at Manukan Island. Ang tour guide, si Nanak, ay napakabait at sinagot ang lahat ng aming tanong, tinulungan din niya ang lahat na alagaan ang kanilang mga bag at gamit. Ang banana boat at snorkeling ay dapat subukan. Nakakita kami ng ilang uri ng isda, limitado ang snorkeling sa mga lugar malapit sa dalampasigan ngunit marami pa ring isda ang makikita. Napakainit ng araw kaya kailangan maglagay ng sunscreen upang maiwasan ang sunburn. Sapat din ang oras at natapos nang maaga bandang 3pm.

Napakagandang karanasan ang pagpunta sa Mataking at Pom Pom Island. Hindi kami nakahinto sa Timba Timba Island dahil sa mga restriksyon ng gobyerno, gayunpaman, huminto kami sa isang lugar para mag-snorkel. Napakabait ng aming gabay sa pagkuha ng mga litrato para sa amin, nakakita kami ng maraming pagong kahapon at mga tropikal na isda na may magagandang coral reef. Nakakita rin kami ng lion fish. Nagkaroon kami ng isang napakagandang karanasan na minsan lang mangyari sa buhay. Irerekomenda ko ang tour na ito!

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!

In a group of about 20-30 people, only two of us were Japanese. Most of the participants were Chinese, and the tour was primarily conducted in Chinese. However, our guide made sure to explain things to us in English whenever necessary and constantly looked out for us. The high-speed cruise ship took a little over an hour to reach the island. It was incredibly fast and quite bumpy! 😂 But because the ship was so fast, we didn't even have time to get seasick, which was a plus, haha. The guides played music on board, making the travel time enjoyable. The island facilities were new and clean. Toilets, shower rooms, and even hair dryers were available, ensuring a comfortable stay. Before snorkeling, there was a safety briefing. For the two of us, a staff member provided a one-on-one explanation, showing us translated safety precautions in Japanese. They also checked repeatedly to ensure we understood everything, and we felt that safety was very well-considered. For snorkeling, the boat took us to two different spots. The ocean was truly beautiful and amazing! 🐠 The guides constantly checked on us, ensuring our safety while also making sure we had a great time. After returning to the island, a luxurious meal of crab, shrimp, and other dishes was prepared, and drinks were available freely 🦀🦐. Afterward, we had free time. We relaxed under a parasol on the beach. When it was time, we boarded the super-fast cruise ship again for the return journey. Since it was an early morning tour, we were quite tired by the time we headed back, but it was a fulfilling day nonetheless. My only regret is that I forgot to give a tip to our kind guide when we left. They were so helpful until the very end. Since about 90% of the participants are Chinese, Japanese participants might feel a little uneasy at first if they join alone. However, there were many guides and staff members who paid very close attention to us Japanese participants, so in the end, we had a wonderful time without any worries. The ocean was beautiful, snorkeling was fun, and the food was luxurious. Above all, the warm support from all the staff left a lasting impression. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who might be hesitant because of the small number of Japanese participants! 🌴🐠✨

What a wonderful experience! Before departure, customer service proactively contacted me and created a group chat. On the day of departure, a staff member was even arranged to meet us in the early morning and guide us to the meeting point on their way to work. This staff member also spoke fluent Mandarin and Cantonese, making the first stop of our trip full of pleasant surprises! They also offered thoughtful photo services, including free underwater photos and videos. It was absolutely delightful!

Overall, had a great day snorkeling at 3 different spots. Managed to see some nemo fishes!! Expect that there will be some wait time in the morning before getting onto the boats. But every other time when the boat picks us up after the snorkeling/diving sessions, it’s a very easy process to follow. We had Chong as our snorkeling guide who was very helpful to point out where certain fishes are so we were able to catch a glimpse of the sea creatures and enjoy our time more. The lunch provided was simple but pretty good — had the mushroom and chicken rice. I can’t remember the other driving guide and boat driver’s name but they were great too. Thank you to this team:)
