Thrilling Ride - The boat ride was thrilling. Seeing the fireflies and plankton was something different. And having a riverside dinner ahead of it made for an enjoyable evening.

Fab your guide, lovely trip! - We had the best experience on this trip with our lovely guide LG.On a practical level things ran very smoothly as LG communicated with us clearly beforehand and picked us up at the time and place mentioned. He took us to a beautiful temple, a lighthouse with lots of monkeys and a great view of the Melakka Strait, to a fishing village then onto the Firefly tour. Throughout he provided useful and interesting information and happily answered any questions.He was full of knowledge. He also made sure to get us a smaller boat on the Firefly trip so we could see it better, it was lovely looked like twinkling Christmas trees. He then dropped us off at our hotel an hour later than planned without complaints. I would recommend LG to anyone wishing to do this trip He was a safe driver and very friendly.Enjoy your trip! Thanks LG from Henk and Julie Sept 24. You turned a good trip into a great one!

Moderate magical experience - Interesting experience. But as expected it is not as bright and magical as advertised. Tho it is impossible to capture such dim glowing

Good fun experience - The tour was well organized and comfortable. LG, the guide/driver was fantastic and highly recommend him. The tour itself is okay. The firefly was not as exciting as we thought. But the monkey park as fun. Good interaction with the monkeys. We did an addin ‘Blue Tears’ package at the last minute and that was worth the price. Overall recommend the tour.

Nice experience - Interesting, well organized. However, some costs are not included: 1. The blu tears and 2. The eagles feeding, both experiences are very nice and worth doing. The guide wasn’t very helpful, did not explain anything and did not provide instructions on how to see the blue tears, that were a bit under the expectation… And definitely very different from the pictures shown.

Sounds more exciting than it is - Life jackets issued before we set off on a lovely boat, we sailed about 15mins before seeing the fireflies which reminded me of fairy lights at Christmas - nice to see. The blue tears - to see illuminated plankton, we were given fish nets to wave in the water - nice to see. At the fishing village, there's lots of restaurants to eat and drink, good toilet facilities too The drive from central KL is approx 1.5-2hrs depending on traffic, we stopped off for a 5min toilet break and 20mins at the Hindu Temple.
