Full description
This tour will take you to Kuala Selangor in the quiet hamlet of Kampung Kuantan, where one of the largest firefly colonies in the world exists. When you arrive, you'll visit Kota Melawati, formerly known as Fort Altingsburg, with its old execution block, royal mausoleum and colonial buildings. You'll experience the highlight of the tour at Kampung Kuantan. At first, this sparkly display looks like an endless row of Christmas trees, but the synchronized, rhythmic flashing is actually produced by thousands of fireflies. Your skilled local oarsmen will make this experience a memorable and unforgettable one.

Everything was well organised and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and experienced. Traffic on Friday night is something to consider though as it took about 2.5 hours instead of 1. But we still enjoyed everything: the monkey encounter was unforgettable. Remember to wear clothes that don’t matter as they can jump on you. Unfortunately we were not very lucky with the weather as it rained heavily while we were on the boat, but we had raincoats and the boat had a roof and we still saw the fireflies. Dinner was lovely, but there was chicken on the menu, not only seafood, and any vegetarians need to be aware of that.

We went to Kuala Selangor with Mr Raja, always the best driver and the nicest guide! We had a great time with him, super kind and he explained us all the things and made sure we have a happy time :) Perfect! Going there we stopped to see and feed the silver leaves monkeys, so fun :) and then we also stopped in Kuala Selangor to see some beautiful wall art. We had a really delicious seafood dinner in a restaurant on the river and then we went to see the fireflies with the boat! Sooo nice! Happy of this trip! Five stars :)

Really nice experience. The driver was really nice and let us stop to see and play with monkeys before going to the fireflies. The dinner was nice but we had to wait a bit to get it. The place is a but far from KL tho (~1.5h?). The fireflies are really nice to see, but don’t expect “full daylight illumination” as shown in the example pictures since their light is extremely soft. (You won’t get them on the phone video probably). Very nice experience. Recommend.
