Review of Sabah’s 7-hour Dream Beach, Sky Mirror, mangrove, proboscis monkey, sunset, and firefly tour from Kota Kinabalu.

“Reserva última da hora, contacto através do WhatsApp referindo que estava completo, expliquei limitação de tempo, 10 minutos estava confirmada. Ida e volta ao hotel, tudo conforme descrição. Viajei com uma familiar que devido à sua idade tem alguma dificuldade na mobilização deram todo o tipo de apoio. De salientar toda a equipa do staff pelo profissionalismo, simpatia, disponibilidade e amabilidade. A destacar o Kevin, descreveu e tirou dúvidas sobre a vida dos macacos probóscides e observações ao longo do trajeto. Vimos os macacos de perto, desfrutar de um deslumbrante pôr do sol na praia, espetáculo de fogo e pirilampos. O Kevin foi o nosso fotógrafo pessoal, o nosso animador…”

It actually took too long because the boat driver is pushing for the return trip so that we still have enough water in the channel. The best part of the tour was eating at the Thai restaurant.
