A lovely Kayak experience in Desaru Johor - Three most important reasons: 1. The tour leader (Izzatul) put safety first. She and her colleague went with me and my wife throughout the 3-hour journey. 2. An eco-learning experience. She guided us into the waterway of the mangrove habitat to show us how nature formed a safeguard against tsunami, how the egrets came all the way from Mongolia etc. 3. Very caring. She and her colleagues took many pictures and videos for us leaving behind a lovely memory of the outing trip.

Loved it - The tour guide was extremely sweet and smart. She will not lead you astray. I had a blast. Be prepared to be a little tired and bring your cameras.

Wonderful experience - It’s a great experience to paddling rubber boats. Especially for only one boat float in the river. Alif introduced the ecosystem of the river carefully. I can feel Alif’s love for this land. He tried his best to share the story of the river with us. Although I was tired but it really worth. It’s a little bit pity that the boat was not so comfortable to sit for a long period of time. 非常難得的橡皮艇遊河體驗,尤其是寬闊的水面僅僅只有我們一艘橡皮艇。 Alif 懷著對這片土地的熱忱,熱情的介紹整個生態環境,雖然我們划的很累,但是非常值得。

Memerising mangroves - It was great to leave our resort and see more of Malaysia. We'd never seen mangrove trees before, and we enjoyed kayaking along the river and hearing about the alien-looking landscape from our friendly, knowledgeable guide. The tree roots are mesmerising and we saw some animals too -- wild dogs and monkeys -- plus an egret. We all enjoyed the gentle exercise while learning about something new. We also enjoyed riding some waves intentionally created by the big boat, plus being towed home. A fun morning out for our family of four (Mum, Dad and two older teens)! Recommend wearing sun lotion and insect repellent, and recommend the outing!

Family Fun On The Water- Perfect Kayaking Adventure for Beginners - Huge thanks to our guide Abang Udin for bringing us through the lush canopy of mangroves, calm waters of Sungei Lebam, and educating us on the ecosystem and wildlife. It was a memorable experience and a must try activity when in Desaru! Our kayaking was smooth and easy for the kids and beginners like me. Thumbs up JungleWalla!

Kayaking fun - It was very good experience with English speaking leader who was really well educated about the environment we were exploring. We were with 2 kids 9 and 11yo, and there was no problem with them at all.

Enjoyable and Educational Cruise - We have joined the Sungai Lebam River Cruise Tour. It is an eye opening trip to us. Our guide Udin is very knowledgeable and has shared a lot of information about birds and mangrove trees. The Cruise is very enjoyable and highly recommended to nature lovers.

A pleasant trip in the mangroves - It was a very pleasant trip- the weather was not great but both the guide and his assistant were great. Unfortunately we did not see much but it was a fun outing :) It was also nice to learn about the history of Desaru and its flora and fauna on the way. !
