Enjoyable and memorable excursion - We booked this trip last minute and we are so glad we did. A very enjoyable and well organised excursion from start to finish. Bird our guide was so friendly, informative and on hand to take lots of memorable photos. The itinerary was excellent and we felt fortunate to see the Proboscis and Long tail monkeys, a stunning sunset on the beach plus the finale of beautiful fireflies. Excellent value for money and highly recommended

Nice day 😊 - We got to see and feed the monkeys with bananas. Unfortunately we didn't spot any proboscis monkeys.. The food were amazing! After dinner we went to the beach and spotted a beautiful sunset , the guides helped taking photos of us which was very kind. After the sunset, we spotted fireflies on the way back. Lovely day! Our guide Oning was also very kind! Don't forget mosquito repellent!

Highly recommended - The arrangement was fabulous. The guide explanation of each event was informative. Also they guided the tour so other guide boats will not interfere with our group with precise timing. Highly recommend booking from this group.

Really great time.... - Really great time. Communication on collection was perfect. We saw both monkeys which was very exciting. Food was really good! Bird, our guide, was great and so helpful taking photos at the beach and making sure we got the good poses! Fireflies at the end was really nice. Great value for money.

Amazing Views, Great Tour Guides! - This was a really amazing experience. I would like to especially give thanks to James not only a great tour guide, a really good photographer. When I injured myself he became Dr James who was very attentive and quick to help. Everyone in general was really friendly and helpful. Had a great time. The photos during sunset is a must! The fireflies and the monkeys were defo worth it. Good value for money. Would go again :)

Interesting half day tour - fireflies the best bit - Tour is based on river about 1.5 hours by Van from KK - so quite long transfers. Monkey tour is short, a free hundred metres up river. They have some tame macaque monkeys which come on the boat and we saw a proboscis monkey in the distance. Mirror beach needs a clear sunset but it was very cloudy for us. The fireflies were the best bit for me.

Don’t book it if you have any respect for nature and wildlife - When you go to visit animals, nature, wildlife…you are supposed to be respectfull, not bother the animals, be quiet and try to observe them in their real habitat. The people on this tour does completelly the opposite. They call the monkeys to jump into the boat to feed them and use them as they were so kind of toy, they light and screem to the fireflies to scare them and make them fly….0 respect for animals and the environment, so please do not book this tour.
