Good night out - It was wonderful - the fire flies and bio luminescence were all that they said and better and our guide was informative. Riverside restaurant - not cordon blue but not far from it. Very tasty

EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL GUIDE - BLUE TEARS OK BUT LUCIOLES OVERRATED - This ride was somewhat disappointing...
After booking this activity without dinner included, I noticed that the same activity was offered, after the fact, on Tripadvisor, with dinner included and cheaper than the price I paid for the same outing but, without the meal... I tried to cancel my reservation, to book the same activity including lunch, but I could never cancel my reservation. So I kept it...
The discovery of the blue tears is very interesting and quite spectacular, corresponding to the photos that can be seen on the site.
Fireflies, on the other hand, are very much overstretched. There are very few fireflies, 5 to 6 light points per tree, no more... I expected some real Christmas trees, I was very disappointed...
Finally, we were in the same boat as a group of completely drunk Asians, who screamed in the boat, making a devil's shovel, the whole time of the trip and the boat's pilot never told them anything... while they disrespected all the other travelers... They ruined our exit and I thought it was a shame.
On the other hand, and to finish on a very positive note, our guide and driver LJ, who took care of us, during the visits preceding the river trip was adorable and extremely professional. He answered all our questions in the Hindu temple, advised us on the night markets to do and was immensely kind, agreeing to drop us off, after the exit, at a tram stop, on the line leading us directly to our accommodation, thus avoiding any changes... LJ was very annoyed for us that the boat tour was very noisy.
I recommend, despite everything, for the guide, visits before the outing and for blue tears...

Must visit in Malaysia! - It was a wonderful tour! Interesting experiences for sure, getting to see natural elements!
We got it through the Avyana Tours and our guide LG shared interesting facts about all the places we visited!
I would definitely recommend if you love nature and history.

Nice night tour - This tour was good for anyone who hasn't seen Fireflys at night or a Bioluminescent bay (Blue Tears). The initial visit to the Hindu temple was nice, but unfortunately, you are not allowed to take pictures inside this beautiful carved temple. The second stop to visit the Monkeys was entertaining because they like to eat and will jump on you in a playful way to get the food. Most folks were amused by their playfulness, but you are told to feed the Monkeys at your own risk.

Nice tour, but very overpriced! - The tour itself was very nice and our driver put a lot of effort into it and told us a lot about the country and the area. He was also always ready to take photos of us. We were only 4 people in total and so the ride was quite relaxed. However, the price offered by Tripadvisor for the tour is completely overpriced. Both the firefly ride and the trip to the blue tears cost RM 50 each on site and thus a fraction of the actual price. To estimate so much for the pure transfer is already bordering on usury. Our driver probably saw the least of the amount, although he definitely deserved it. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time, but the tour can certainly be booked on site for significantly less. The blue tears are rather white and not as blue as shown in the photos. But you still see something and it is an experience. Also the fireflies are not quite as many as shown in the pictures, especially since there were at least 6 other boats with us and my seat neighbor unfortunately talked continuously, but her daughter constantly exhorted to be quiet. This has diminished the experience a bit, but the organizer can't help it.

Not what was advertised! - Was an ok , but for a tour that is advertised as the "Amazing Fireflies With Blue Tears Watching & Kuala Selangor Tour," there was no Bue Tears watching involved, we simply went to see some mankeys, and a 20yo Inidan (Hindu?) Church and had a meal, saw fireflies, and back to Kuala Lumpur, so was somewhat disappointed.

Get into the possibilities to do it on your own - The trip would have been much cheaper if we hadn't ordered this through. You can do it yourself. The dinner was included, but we paid for it ourselves.
