Always headache when thinking of how am i travel around alone. And my colleague had recommended me to join the day tours by travels agency to observe Proboscis Monkey and Fireflies near to Kota Belud. The day tour only cost RM170 per person.
Together with another 5 tourists, we had started our journey heading to Kota Belud at 2.45pm
after picked up by the travels agency at our own hotel. The journey took 1 and half hours from KK downtown to the river port.
Nice scenery along the way to our destination |
We been served with local delight as snack before on board to the boat for Proboscis Monkey.

Here we go to look for Proboscis Monkey. We are very lucky that we found a group of them on the tree within 5 minutes. We only allow to observed from the boat to ensure we did not disturb their natural habitat.
Ready to depart |

We did a river cruise along the river while looking for other animals. Nice view along the journey.
We decide to end our river cruise as we cant find any of them and decide to rush for the
sunset at a beach nearby after our dinner. Local dinner buffet was served when we back to
the port. The taste is quite good.
Right after the quick dinner, we rushed to a beach nearby for the sunset. This was not part of the itinerary for the day tour but it was an adhoc activity that suggested by our tour guide.

After the sunset, we continue our journey heading to another port for fireflies observation. Due to the darkness and the fireflies are too small, i didnt able to snap any photo of it. However, the tree filled with fireflies look exactly like a christmas tree with the deco light.
After 20 minutes of fireflies observation, we back to port and travel for 1 and half hour to
go back to downtown area..
