Kota Kinabalu: Bongawan River Cruise, City Tour & Fireflies

A great river trip

A great river trip. Plenty of wildlife to see. A surprise to me was how enchanting the fireflies were. A knowledgeable guide with very good english. If I'd had time i would have booked again.

Guided Snorkeling Tour & Lunch at Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park

Must do when in Kota Kinabalu.

Wow, wow, wow. One if the best and well organised tours we have been on. Jai our guide was amazing. Pick up on time, safety first, great knowledge. Sapi Island was beautiful. Exceeded our expectations. Not only was the snorkelling great, but the videos made and sent to us of us snorkelling with hundreds of fish is priceless. Lunch was very organised and well set out. As a vegetarian there were good options that were delicious. Loved our day. Loved this tour. Thank you so much Jai.
