Klias Wildlife Safari River Cruise - Proboscis Monkey & Fireflies Print

We spontaneously booked the tour the day before at the Amazing Borneo office. Mildred was very nice and organized everything for us.

We were picked up from our hotel and had a 2-hour drive ahead of us. The guide was very nice and provided us with interesting information about the tour in advance. Unfortunately, it rained a lot that day. Nevertheless, we were lucky enough to see monkeys and fireflies in the evening. Surprisingly, we were even able to spot a baby crocodile.

All in all, it was a great experience.

Booking was done directly through the operator's website, which was fuss-free. The day before the tour, the operator contacted us to confirm the pickup time and location.

Richard, the tour guide, is friendly and approachable. He let us know what to expect on the trip beforehand, and he takes care of us well. Although this is a join-in group, he will make an effort to explain details to both of us so that we can enjoy the river cruise.

Jonathan, the driver (I hope I got your name correct), drives steady and well. It is a 2+ hour drive from KK city to the location, and the road condition is not optimal (quite bumpy due to construction).

The snacks and buffet dinner were quite good. We managed to see proboscis monkeys, macaques, one silver languor, and lots of fireflies.

Overall experience of the tour is 4.5/5. It is recommended for people who want to have a first-time experience of seeing the wild without the need for hiking.

Hi, I am Sutida from Thailand. I joined the boat tour. It’s a really good experience. Highly Recommendation. And the staff office-Sylvia, she is really nice and helps me to book the tour. She is a valuable staff.

This trip was truly special. Ijack organized and communicated it so well, and Loong delivered it with such enthusiasm, knowledge, and grace. There were so many monkeys, birds, and fireflies, as well as the odd crocodile! Overall, it was a wonderful experience. The food was fabulous as well, although there was too much!

Meet tour guide Ryan from the hotel and he is nice and resonsibility person. We went to Klias river cruise to search for Proboscis Monkeys and Fireflies Sightings. Ryan was good knowledgeable and will recomend Amzing Borneo to my friend for their next Sabah visit.

Our excursion to and on the Klias River was excellent. Booking on line worked very well. We phoned from our hotel to confirm p/u time and they were spot on. It was a long drive to the Klias River but well worth it. Everything was very well organized and all people concerned very friendly which made a great day. Thoroughly enjoyed the boat cruise especially at night to see the fire flies. The guide actually put one on my hand which was amazing. The boat "driver" was so much fun and so good at spotting "the natives". Afternoon tea and dinner was very enjoyable. Great choice and it was good that we could choose ourselves. Thank you for a wonderful outing - the best thing we did in Kota Kinabalu.

Friendly professional service.

Tour guide was very kind and thoughtful. We really enjoyed every moment of the tour. Our guide Neil was great in assisting us and he went the extra mile making sure we were happy and satisfied with everything.

Hassle free, well organized and trustworthy company. No hidden charges or extra costs from our purchases with Amazing Borneo Tours. Would definitely recommend them to our friends and family.

Joined the Klias river cruise with my two sons and it was one of the best tours ever. Richard, the tour guide, was so nice and kind to my kids, made this day very special for them. Although the bus ride was a bit long for nearly two hours one way, sheets were wide and comfy. Seeing many monkeys and fireflies, having delicious Malay foods were wonderful memories for us. The booking operators were so helpful that we also attended the two islands hopping tour, which was amazing too.

Extremely kind & comfortable

We booked the Klias river cruise with Amazing Borneo Tours and it was fabulous. It was very easy to book, pick ups were on time and our guide Neil was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and kind which made our stay much more interesting and enjoyable.

It was spectacular. I had such an unforgettable experience seeing the stars and fireflies at Klias River Cruise. I didn't think I was going to be able to, so I was genuinely surprised at the majestic view. And this was only possible with my remarkable tour guide, Joel. I am extremely grateful for him as he was very knowledgeable, kind, patient and VERY cool. I love how he had so much passion for his job, and it made my experience here in Sabah so much better. When I come back to Sabah, I will definitely come back and have him as my tour guide. THANK YOU AMAZING BORNEO!!! <3

We watched a lot of proboscis monkeys and fireflies.This experience was completely beyond our expectation.
In addition, Amazing Borneo provide really nice guide who had wide and deep knowledge and gave necessary infomation in appropriate timing.
Thank you so much for your great tour!!!

It was well organised. Lunch was good. They took us deep into the forest to show us the monkeys and fireflies.
