Kuala Selangor Symphony Fireflies from Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Selangor Symphony Fireflies from Kuala Lumpur

Bask in the bioluminescence of thousands of fireflies as they do their mating dance around the berembang trees along the Selangor River in Kuala Selangor. We will head down to the jetty after sunset, alight into one of the silent electric boats, and glide over the dark river to watch the amazing light show provided by these little luminescent lovelies.

Highlights:
• Watch the symphony of light in the mangrove swamps—one of Mother Nature’s most spectacular displays by the fireflies.
• En route Kota Melawati (Fort Altingsburg), where you may be able to spot silvered-leaf monkeys.
• Enjoy waterfront seafood dinner.
• Free hotel pickup and drop-off included
• The Kuala Selangor fireflies are a must-see for nature lovers and kids.

Stop At: Bukit Melawati, Kuala Selangor Malaysia

Bukit Melawati is well known for their silvered leaf monkeys. The silvered leaf monkeys live in harmony with longtail macaques. Do take note that the macaques can be rather fierce, unlike the silvered leaf monkeys. Feeding is allowed and there are even vendors around who sell fruits and vegetables to visitors who wish to do so. By the way, while cars are allowed up the hill on weekdays, only trams are used to ferry visitors on weekends, due to insufficient parking bays. Two trams are available, with each capable of accommodating 44 to 50 pax.
