Great tour! - Really nice tour. It was run from a small village where everyone we met was super nice. Mangrove tour was great, saw proboscis monkeys on route to the sunset island. The sunset was fantastic. Then after dark we got back on the boat looking for fireflies, we weren't disappointed !

Definitely worth seeing! - We met Azrien - initially our taxi driver, now friend, by chance and he recommended this trip and it was amazing. If you want a chilled evening to catch the sunset with dinner sorted after, this is the tour to pick. Transport is sorted as well just whatsapp Azrien ( +60 13‑797 9018) and he’ll easily sort it out for you with a special price. We went as a group of four and it was smooth sailing. Managed to see proboscis monkeys, local macaques and even eagles!! The tour guide was also funny and you can’t go wrong with the local dinner.
