About this activity

Situated between Kuala Penyu and Beaufort. Klias River Cruise is about 2 hours drive away from the city. Cruising down on an open boat down the river through the mangrove forest reserve leads you to experience wildlife sightseeing in search of the endemic proboscis monkey, macaques, crocodiles and other wildlife along the river bank.

Beautiful scenery along the jetty with the view of the mangrove forest reserve, so get those camera and binoculars on stand-by to keep your eyes peeled for the shy creatures in between the branches.

Enjoy the sights and sounds in a natural setting as sun sets down where it is time for a sumptuous village style dinner. Show’s not over yet though, there is one more trip to see the famous glowing insects that we call fireflies, embrace yourself for Nature Christmas Tree!
