Light up your evening with your favorite local on a unique private tour from busy Kuala Lumpur to the quiet neighboring village of Kuala Selangor. Whether you are fascinated by temples or captivated by nature, this tour has a great mix and will be an unforgettable experience! Head together with your new local friend towards Kuala Selangor and enjoy the views along the way. Malaysia is famous for having a rich multicultural history. There is no better way to catch those vibes than visiting a rural area that has three remarkable temples from three different religions. And don't miss the cows grazing alongside these temples, it's a wonderfully pastoral sight. By now the sun is starting to go down, and it's time to see the most incredible highlight of this trip, the fireflies! Hop in a boat and float down the river as the fireflies flicker all around you. This is a truly magical experience and will be one to remember.

Part of my bias is likely due to the rain. It was a good tour, but obviously some of the out door stuff was a bit problematic. So be careful of this during the rainy season. Lunch was delicious and the massage was great, as was out tour guide. I’d recommend giving it a try if you’re looking for a day away from Singapore.

The river is reasonably wide although the currents can be strong coming from upstream. One fascinating aspect of the water is its sea-green colour, which is quite different from the usual brackish colour seen in other mangrove locations
