3.00The tour was suggested by the tour company. It was like 1-1/12 hour drive and while the fireflies were unique, not worth the drive. The tour operator/boat driver gave us zero information about fire flies, which we could hear happening on other operators boats. We paid extra for a blue water experience and again nothing was said about how or why the water turned a light blue. Disappointing.
Great tour

5.00This tour was a great way to see several different things and enjoy a nice dinner in one evening. Feeding the monkeys was a highlight. Sathia made the tour extra enjoyable and was able to handle the Kuala Lumpor traffic to make sure I was still able to see everything on the tour.
Monkey and fireflies with our guide Prabaz

5.00Amazing private tour with eagle feeding, firefly watching and blue tears watching! Was very happy to have a friendly and interesting guide Ayyanar, as the way from KL is quite long. He answered all of the questions and was happy to tell me more about Malaysia. Really exciting tour through the nature!
Good experience but lacking the wow

4.00This was a great experience. Thanks to our guide Sathia who made the experience so memorable. We went to a Temple, Monkey Feeding, Firefly Tour and Blue tear tour and a dinner. The Firefly was a little bit disappointing as there we very few and also it was not dark enough. The Blue tear was good but it would have been better if it was more darker. The dinner was okish - the seafood was very fresh but the fried rice was just ok. Thanks Sathia for being a wonderful guide, really friendly and really jovial.

4.00We wanted to see the fireflies. We've seen them but we expected a little more of them. Nevertheless, thanks to Prabaz our private guide was very nice. Stopped at the Indian Temple next to the mosque, and the church. Very special to see these 3 religions side by side. He also took us to the monkeys where we could feed them. That was a laugh. And also the seafood dinner (special Chinese ) was really super tasty. There were mostly locals. He also made a detour especially to be able to photograph us the Petronas Towers at night. Really super of him, he is a friendly nice good English speaking guide at TravelVago. He does and wants to do everything he can to please you.
Very magical, it worth it!
