Top 15 Kuala Selangor Firefly & Sky Mirror Tours

23 reviewed

An hour northwest of Kuala Lumpur the Selangor river mangroves fill with fireflies after dark, and at the right low tide the sandbank off Sasaran turns into a mirror you can walk on. The best firefly and Sky Mirror evenings are collected here, with departure times, whether a seafood dinner is included, and which ones fit both into one trip.

Kuala Lumpur: Kuala Selangor Fireflies and Blue Tears Tour - Kota Melawati: The Fort Sights, the Monkey Area, and Real Expectations

1.Kuala Selangor Fireflies and Blue Tears Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 664 reviews · 8 hours · from $79Best overall

Kuala Selangor night tour from Kuala Lumpur for fireflies, monkeys, a seafood dinner, and Blue Tears bioluminescence.

“We had a really good guide, Mr Stephen. He was really knowledgeable about the area and his commentary on the drive there was very interesting. The monkeys at the lighthouse were so cute and feeding them is a must. The seafood dinner was delicious. My granddaughter hadn't had seafood like that before. She absolutely loved the prawns. The fireflies were really good but unfortunately we didn't see much of the blue tears but that's expected when you are on a nature trip. Overall it is a definite 10 out of 10!”

9.Borneo (Klias) River Cruise & Fireflies Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 126 reviews · from $50

Klias Wetlands river cruise from Kota Kinabalu with proboscis monkeys, buffet dinner, and a fireflies night boat ride.

“Overall the tour was average. Pros : 1- The cruise is very quiet and smooth, since you are in a river there are no bumps. 2- The night cruise was actually good, watching all these fireflies filling up the trees, many of them. Also some may come to the boat, they are small and magical. 3- The staff is friendly. Cons : 1- After driving for two hours from Kota Kinabalu you expect that you are going deep in the river and its jungle but it’s actually a very short ride and you are able to see houses and the main road. The driver did not even go that far…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 109 reviews · from $81

Kota Kinabalu night cruise with mangrove monkeys, Sky Mirror sunset photos, and fireflies, plus dinner and pickup for $81.

“Driver didn't speak at all after picking us up. No idea where we were going or how long it would be. Two guides spoke at the same time in Chinese and English so you couldn't hear anything. Left sitting around for ages with no info most of the time. The mirror photography is just a bit of beach when the tide comes in. There was a massive storm and they said we'd leave the beach if it started raining. Instead they left us for an hour in a tin shack whilst they played on their phones and said nothing. Then the weather got too bad to leave so we had…”

12.City Sights, Batu Caves and Fireflies Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 107 reviews · 9 hours · from $103

A full 9-hour Kuala Lumpur loop with Petronas, Batu Caves, monkey time at Melawati, and a night firefly boat on the Selangor River.

“We had a unique experience. We started with a city tour where we visited the must-sees of KL, plus the chocolate museum, Jadi Batek (fabric and clothing coloring workshop). Then we went to visit Batu Caves, where we stayed for 1 hour 20 minutes. We continued with a 1-hour trip to a fortress, where we were greeted by cannons and monkeys, who were given food and even put on our shoulders. The penultimate experience was the excellent seafood dinner. At the end was the little cruise to see the fireflies light up the trees and the river. In any case, if I give this excursion 5/5, I must give our…”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 91 reviews · from $88

Night fireflies over Kuala Selangor, mangrove boat ride, royal fort stops, and a local seafood dinner with KL pickup.

“This was such a disappointment. No one picked us up at hotel despite confirming with number provided. After an hour I had to phone and was told some one would come. 20 mins later a Chinese man came with a minibus. My friend and I were the only one's on the bus. 1.5 hrs to get out of KL - but it was Ramadan and nobody's fault. Monkeys at first stop were quite aggressive . Back down hill - driver did not stop at burial grounds - had to ask to go back. Then took us to a pretty dirty chinese restaurant on bank of river - seafood was very…”
