A magical afternoon! - Excellent trip and fantastic value for money. The whole afternoon was awesome from spotting the probiscus monkeys, to feeding the monkeys who joined us on the boat before the amazing beach fire spectacle and a firefly finale that was truly magical. All this with included afternoon tea with banana fritters and a lovely Malaysian buffet lunch. I absolutely recommend this tour and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you Heavenly Holidays!

Lovely day out - Lovely afternoon out, good communication via WhatsApp straight after booking. We had some rain but our guide handed out rain ponchos which was nice. We managed to see some proboscis monkeys pretty much immediately but from a distance as they are quite shy. Fireflies along the river was a very beautiful way to round up the trip Thank you

Nice afternoon experience with fireflies - Nice experience seeing the mangrove and the fireflies, good value for money. Bring binoculars to see the proboscis monkeys as they can be shy and stay far away.

Well worth it. - Went to the river, saw the monkeys. Then it pissed it down with rain - looked like the rest of the tour was off. We waited in the shelter for it to pass, and sure enough - it did! We scored a beautiful sunset, then cruised down the river to see the fireflies. Would rate 100%. Also, Joji - great taste in music. Grade A driver, love your work.

Bongawan River Cruise - Porboscis monkeys and fireflies - My family went for the trip on a bad weather day with heavy downpour. Mimi and her team had the magic to turn the bad weather experience into a pleasurable and memorable one. We didn't miss seeing the proboscis monkeys and the fireflies. We also had the most crispy fried banana fritters we had ever eaten!
