Description

A trip like no other, we invite you to be a part of our new and compelling river-cruise in Malaysia. Make sure to bring your complete family unless you want them to miss seeing proboscis monkeys and numerous fireflies in the wild. Can you even imagine the excitement on the face of the kids?

This specially designed eco-trip will provide a delightful experience.

We will begin in the city of Kota Kinabalu. After picking you up from your hotel, we’ll proceed towards the beautiful town of Weston in Beaufort. On the way, you will see stunning views of the countryside, secluded beaches, paddy fields, and dense mangrove forest. The ride itself will be spectacular!

After we arrive at Weston, light refreshment in the form of local cakes will be served to you. Thereafter, you will board our comfortable fiberglass boat and set on a wildlife tour.

You will be able to spot several proboscis monkeys as we’ll make the tour. Peculiar for their unusually large nose, it would be charming to see these creatures chilling in the wild. Also, it will be the perfect time to enjoy a beautiful sunset. After the tour, you will relish a sumptuous Malaysian dinner by the riverbank.

Picture yourself enjoying a tasty meal to the sound of flowing water and the sight of the mild glow of fireflies against the mangrove forest! After dinner, we will drive you back to the city of Kota Kinabalu sending along lots of beautiful memories.

It would be an exceptional evening, we assure you!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
