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: Royal Bay Sky Mirror Mangrove Day Tour in Sabah [Proboscis Monkeys/Fireflies/Beach Sunset]
Guest User2026-02-07
An amazing and unique experience! Everything was well-organized: hotel pickup, transfer to the river. We were lucky to see proboscis monkeys, a monitor lizard, and even a crocodile.
But the real highlight was the magical firefly show after sunset! Seeing thousands of them light up the mangroves was like a fairy tale.
Our guide, Jay, made the trip special. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, friendly, and funny. He even took incredible photos of us during the sunset on the beach.
Highly recommend this tour! 100% worth it.★

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: 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.
