Kuala Lumpur · KUALA SELANGOR FIREFLY EVENINGS
37 reviewed
An hour northwest, the Selangor mangroves blink with thousands of fireflies and the tide sometimes glows blue with plankton. These are the best Kuala Selangor firefly evenings from KL — which add a seafood dinner, which include the boat, how late each runs — with prices and what the drive back looks like.

See Kuala Selangor’s famed fireflies on a calm river boat with temple, lighthouse, monkeys, and possible seafood dinner from Kuala Lumpur.
“I would give this ZERO stars if I could. Please read #3. 1. When deciding on if this tour is worth your time and money, consider that the actual firefly sighting is about 15 minutes during this SIX HOUR TOUR. 2. The other time is filled with some excursions not described by the vendor. They encourage you to stop at a Hindu temple that supposedly opens at 5. After waiting for 20-30 minutes, the driver says that maybe they will open at 5:30. We politely but firmly asked to leave, as we didn’t want to wait around to see when they would open. 3. Instead of offering to see Malawati…”

“We had a wonderful day with Captain JB! He was friendly, helpful, and took us on a tour of Kuala Lumpur and the surrounding areas, showing us not only the famous spots but also unique and less touristy places. He made the experience even more special by taking plenty of group photos and recording original videos for us. Highlights included visiting the Batu Caves, enjoying a delicious dinner, and taking a boat ride to see the fireflies. An unforgettable experience — thank you, Captain JB! 🌟🍤🛶”

“Even though i had read some negative reviews about the rubbish and the smell, it was worth going to the Batu caves, those monkeys are the ones that make all the mess and are only a small detail of the experience. The fireflies were surreal, such a peaceful and serene atmosphere, which i felt was made much better to not be in a huge tour group. My driver Robert was so friendly and full of information and would recommend him to anyone. Thank you”
