  • Enjoy a seafood dinner near Bukit Melawati

Full description
You will be picked up from your hotel in central Kuala Lumpur and driven to Kuala Selangor, approximately 1.5 hours away. Kuala Selangor is a small village on the banks of the Selangor River. The village is well-known, as you can find millions of fireflies there.   Upon arrival you’ll visit Bukit Melawati, where Fort Altingsburg is located. A lighthouse strands on top of the hill, surrounded by tall trees. Look out for local birds, silvered leaf monkeys and long-tailed macaques. You’ll head to a nearby fishing village for a typical seafood dinner before making your way to Kampung Kuantan.   At around 6:30 PM you’ll board a boat and row along the river to see the fireflies. Millions of fireflies present you with a dazzling display of lights flickering in synchrony, that resemble twinkling electric lights on a Christmas tree. You will be dazzled at the sight. At 8:30 PM, you’ll depart from Kuala Selangor and drive back to Kuala Lumpur in the comfort of a private vehicle.

The trip was great. We started of with quite some delay as the driver had to be changed but our driver 𝑫𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒓𝒂𝒋 was great. He tried his best to bring us safely to the destination and to ensure that we still get to do all activities as planned. On the ride back we enjoyed the personalized music list with lots of Italian and Spanish songs. The firefly tour as such is super nice, we've never seen anything quite like it. It's magic.

Kathir was my guide for the day, I am a solo traveler so it was a private tour. He was informative, very patient and wonderfully knowledgeable about the area, he went out of his way to make the tour comfortable and a bonus tip for me, he is passionate about his job. The food was just amazing and authentic!! The fireflies part of the activity is mesmerizing. Although this tour continues towards the glowing blue Jelly fish which was not a part of my package. But do not miss this! Thank you Kathir!
