Reviews: Mengalum Island snorkeling 1-day tour includes lunch
Guest User2025-08-01
It's a fantastic island, a pineal room. I got a lot of life shots. It's not easy to take a boat for an hour, but if you look at the beautiful island, all this effort will be rewarded. However, most of them are Chinese. I hope you consider this.

We saw two types of monkeys and a large crocodile. We also saw a lot of fireflies, which was fantastic. Above all, the sunset was amazing. It was the best I've ever seen. The boat tour was a really great experience! The car ride was 2.5 hours each way, and it was quite shaky and painful. That was the only negative point. Overall, I would recommend this trip to others.

It was the most worthwhile and enjoyable experience. It was a firefly viewing experience that you can't find anywhere else. Our guide, Lili, took such good care of us. She could only speak a little Japanese, but she tried to find the necessary Japanese words during the trip. She took pictures for everyone. She was very informative, funny, and friendly. The food was delicious. The car and boat were all very good. The tour was fun. We even met a bunch of long-nosed uncles. Watching the fireflies here was the most wonderful and memorable experience of our KK trip.

Ordered the trip via trip.com and the driver arrived at a different hotel. No one called, no one answered our calls. Fortunately, the trip.com assisted with solving the issue pretty well and we went on this trip on a different day. The guide, Ken, was a lot of fun. The trip itself was interesting despite the long distances. We bought yogurt and cheese on the farm, tasted good. The lunch was good.

Kelvin was our guide. He was friendly and informative, and funny. The day trip went smoothly as described, our family had lots of fun in the various beach and sea activities. We would highly recommend Kelvin and this tour.
