This
wonderful day trip take place in Garama Village; located about
130km from Kota Kinabalu. It's about 2 hour ride from Kota
Kinabalu under normal wheatear condition.
The
highlight of this tour is ~ of course, seeing the remarkable Proboscis
Monkey in the wild! Seeing the bizarre monkey with their
natural behaviour in the mangroves is truly a wonderful
experience.
Beside
having the opportunity to see the Proboscis Monkey, one
may also get the chance to see variety of birds, the common
Macaque gathering in large numbers, sighting of the rare Silver
Langour, large group of water buffalo and if you're lucky
enough, you may see a crocodile in the river bank.
After
a delightful Malaysian dinner, (Buffet Style) our guide
will show you a breathtaking view of Fireflies lighten up
the mangrove tree near the Garama Base Camp. A gift from nature
before you leave the wonderful place.
