Paddy Field, Fishing And Fireflies Tour

This full-day itinerary showcases the surroundings of Kuala Lumpur, from the Sekinchan rice fields to the Kuala Selangor Nature Park mangroves. Along the way, you’ll visit Pantai Redang (Redang Beach), a rice museum and several temples. Top off the tour with a boat ride past fireflies lighting up the night forest. A seafood lunch and riverside dinner are included with round-trip hotel transport. Silver-Leafed Monkeys and long-tailed macaques are the main draw to the Melawati Hill. The significant difference between the silver-leafed babies as compared to the adults is that these babies have golden fur while the adults have dull grey colours. These monkeys are a delight; they are gentle and playful.
