Reviews: KAWA KAWA Nanamun Fireflies Sunset Cruise with Dinner

Guest User2024-06-16

River cruise was relaxing, saw some monkeys, will depend on your luck. Sunset was amazing. Dinner was not as bad as expected. But the fireflies were out of this world.. like fairy lights on an Xmas tree. Guides were very friendly and helpful.

Reviews: Sabah Kawa Mangrove Forest Day Trip [Small group tour available | Mosque | Proboscis monkeys and fireflies]

Guest User2026-01-12

I think this is a very worthwhile part of Kota Kinabalu; the fireflies are beautiful, and the tour guide is excellent. Aside from the slightly bumpy ride on the main road, there are no other downsides.

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-Kawa River Cruise Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies with Hi-Tea & Dinner Shared Day Tour

Guest User2026-02-08

Wonderful experience! Well organized, wonderful guide Adeor. He told a lot, and it was very interesting. We weren't very lucky with the weather, so the sunset wasn't particularly bright, but it was still beautiful. On the river trip, we saw vars, birds, and langur monkeys, but we only saw proboscis monkeys from afar. The evening river cruise with fireflies was very touching. It's a small miracle that no photo, video, or words can do justice.

Reviews: Kota Kinabalu Kawa-kawa river cruise 1-day tour: Proboscis monkeys & fireflies - includes snacks and dinner

Guest User2026-01-17

Really satisfied with the trip. Our tour guide, Thompson is very friendly and informative. We manage to see the proboscis monkey. The fire fly trip also amazing. There is a lot of fire fly on the tree and flying around us on the boat.

Reviews: Sabah Weston Wetland River Cruise, Proboscis Monkey, Sunset & Fireflies 1 Day Shared Tour

Guest User2025-09-04

We saw two types of monkeys and a large crocodile. We also saw a lot of fireflies, which was fantastic. Above all, the sunset was amazing. It was the best I've ever seen. The boat tour was a really great experience! The car ride was 2.5 hours each way, and it was quite shaky and painful. That was the only negative point. Overall, I would recommend this trip to others.

Reviews: Sabah Kota Kinabalu Sapi & Mamutik Island Snorkeling Shared Day Tour Includes Lunch & Optional Water Activities

Guest User2025-07-18

The tour guide Tommy is a local Chinese, very enthusiastic, the same tour guide Winston is also warmly introduced, does not force self-funded projects, returns in advance, too tired to give up an island in the afternoon, sign confirmation The sea was windy, the speedboat set off, the waves were bumpy, but the children were excited, Snorkeling on the same island can see a lot of small fish. Unfortunately, it rained a few days ago and I couldn't go to Huantan Island and Mermaid Island. In fact, you can buy a ferry ticket to the island at Jesston Pier, and you don't need to follow the group. Today includes lunch, but it is necessary to gather head, take a taxi to gather.
