Kuala Selangor Kampung & Firefly Watching

start from MYR 380

This is a special tour that will take you on an exploration of some of Malaysia's last mangrove swamps - Kuala Selangor, and the rural life around it. A small peaceful town built along the coast, many villages scattered around Kuala Selangor depend on fishing and farming to sustain their livelihoods. You will get the chance to observe their lifestyles firsthand as they conduct fishing, tap rubber and pluck palm oil fruits.

Next, visit the remains of a fort on Bukit Melawati before heading to the protected Taman Alam mangrove swamp, an ideal spot for bird-watching and witnessing swamp creatures. At night, enjoy a delicious seafood dinner, of which Kuala Selangor is famous for. Then, after enjoying your meal, it will be an exclusive trip to the Kuala Selangor River to catch fire flies twinkling among the mangroves that line the banks of the river.
