    It was a nice trip. Our tour guide Catty was very friendly and spoke perfect English, the van driver and boat driver were both very safe and friendly. Saw 3 kings of monkeys and fireflies. The food was ok. Nice trip, worth doing!

    I went with both my parents, and it was a very enjoyable experience! I visited 5 years ago, and there have been improvements from the reception area, to the increased number of staff and guides, and lunch provided as compared to last time 👍🏼

    We got Clare as our guide, and she was very patient and kind despite certain people in the group that were a tad more mischievious throughout the tour.

    The tour was smooth, the post-tour performance was entertaining, and the lunch was delicious. All in all, I'm glad that MMCV has improved over the years and gave my parents as wonderful an experience as last time I went 😁👍🏼👍🏼

    Would recommend everyone to visit atleast once if they are in Sabah!

    Picked up from hotel on time, Vince our guide was polite and informative, short hop to island. The snorkelling was ok, Sandy water limited vision on surface but dive a few feet and good. Lunch was very tasty and wide ranging short walk around island and a bit of swimming and snorkelling off of beach. Not much else to do, but additional snacks before departing ( snoozing in hammock looking at great views). Enjoyable.

    My boyfriend and I had an awesome time on the Bongawan River Cruise! The food was great, and our guide really made the experience special. They even took some cute pics of us at the beach, which was a nice touch. The driver was on time, and since the trip starts in the evening, we caught an amazing sunset. The best part, though, was the fireflies – super romantic, especially for couples. I booked the whole thing through WhatsApp +6012-750 1311, and it was super easy. If you’re looking for a chill and scenic date idea, I’d totally recommend this cruise. And don’t forget to bring your phone for those firefly pics!

    Very nice staff. Corals and views after the hiking were nice. Take close shoes or you’ll pay to get some. Snacks maybe too

    Great tour with Steven today! He covered thoroughly the canopy walk and kinabalu park. We learned a lot of plants and nature there, interesting stuff. Would recommend, especially to nature lovers or people who enjoy walks or being active. The canopy bridge seems high however once you're on, it is not too bad. Foliage heavily covers the ground so doesn't feel like you are high up. Also we saw the rafflesia keithil flower which was lucky as seeing the flower isn't guaranteed, blooms slow and finishes fast. It was a fantastic, worth our money day :))

    Island staff on Sapi and Manukan roped off the reef with fish& coral and only allowed snorkelling where the bottom was sandy and barren. Most people put on the (sign said essential) life jacket and saw nothig. I swam over to the coral and whistles and horns and eventually a lifeguard on a foam kayak insisted I move away back to the barren sand. I explained I was experienced snorkeller, that I would not tread or touch the coral or fish to no avail. Defeated the whole exercise.

    Had the best day! Never seen so many different species in one day; octopus, pufferfish, stingray, bannerfish, turtle, trumpetfish. Enjoyed a delicious lunch at a nice restaurant(included in the price). Bas and Yadi was very professional and I always felt safe. They have a funny humor and made us laugh plenty through the trip! Quite inexpensive experience, so worth the money :) Thank you for a great day.

    Have already climb the Kinabalu mountain in 2015. But I had no idea at that time how How much the Kinabalu is full of entertaining (and sad) stories. Special one to William our guide. So kind with my mom, so helpful with my friend and very insightful. And we saw the Raflesia flower. 3 to 4 years of growing up. Just to see it opening for 2 to 3 days! Can you believe it!.. Kinabalu and offspring tour must be done. Just an advice

    Driver kindly waited for us as our flight was delayed.
    Went to Sabah museum which was very interesting. The other stops were not explained as drivers English poor and he didn’t have knowledge about the sights we were seeing. Had to Google them when back to the hotel.
    Not the best tour we have ever done

    Our driver Eric was on time and very friendly. It was an experience travelling to the river. The tour was wonderful and all the guide was professional. Our boat driver was skillful and fun. Would recommend this tour to anyone who wants adventure beyond island hopping.
