Nicely organised excursion and a very good car. We are very satisfied with the driver: excellent English, giving lots of information about Malaysia, very correct in service.

We really enjoyed this tour although we did have to have our hotel phone the guide who was late. Our guide though was fantastic and informative, the highlights were the dinner and the fireflies were amazing we even had one placed on our hand. Overall this tour was one of the best things we did during our stay.

Seeing the fireflies is a unique experience. Feeding the silverleaf monkeys was also tons of fun.

First, we were taken to an area where Silver-back monkeys inhabit. We got to feed them and have a laugh, which was fun. We were then taken to a restaurant to eat near the river side which was nice. The fireflies trip was good.

We had the same tour guide and he introduced Malaysia to us while we drove down to Selangor. Seeing the fireflies was an amazing experience.

This was a great trip and I was really impressed that you ran the tour with just one passenger. The tour leader was also fantastic. Very informative and friendly. A suggestion - I was encouraged to feed the monkeys with peanuts and was subsequently accidentally scratched by a monkey.

It was a great experience. Unfortunately it started to rain when we got there, which affected the number of fireflies, but it was still a most memorable experience. Watch out for the monkeys, though, which were a pre-fireflies attraction. The monkeys were so friendly they would climb all over you and snatch food away from you if you're not careful.

The trip is well worth doing as the fireflies are magical. Good value.

We could probably give this 2.5 stars. Our tour actually started with a trip to a pottery house and a Monkey hill where we fed lots of monkeys peanuts followed by dinner - beautiful Chinese food. And finally the fireflies. Cannot take pictures of them. They are amazing creatures and so beautiful. Take lots of insect repellents and mozzie cream.

It wasn't amazing, it was ok. The restaurant was very dirty. The tour guide was very tired so he was in a hurry to finish everything very quickly. The van was so noisy that we couldn't hear a word of the explanation. But on the other hand the fireflies were incredible. We went with my daughter and she was very happy. Advise for family with children take them their own lunch/dinner boxes.

Tour delivered as promised, but I did not find the experience to be a big highlight.

The mangrove forest was of limited interest. The restaurant meal was very poor, and the tablecloth was dirty and torn.

Our guide, was quite a talker and a bit obnoxious. He drove so slow to the monkey feeding place that the ride alone from KLCC was very tiring. When we finally got to the monkey feeding area our guide would refuse to park anywhere near the feeding area, although there was parking, we had to walk quite a ways before we could feed the monkeys. My wife and kid could not walk it as she was pregnant and my child is only 2 years old. They missed that part of the experience all together. The firefly place was alright but again a long drive and with a very small and dangerous looking boat. The food we were served was ok, if you're a sea food fan, but if not there is really nothing else offered. The hygiene at the restaurant is something I will not talk about because I will probably lose sleep over it again. There are better things inside KL that you can do cheaper such as the Garden Lake Area, if you're an animal and nature lover who does not want to pay so much.

Our guide was not informative. A very long trip and average dinner to see the fireflies.
