The Tuai tour is optimized for families with young children, with a travel time of about 1 hour and 30 minutes from the city.

1. Why the Tuai Firefly Tour is special
A complete course to enjoy in one day
You can enjoy everything from traditional experiences to sunsets, dinner, and fireflies all at once.
The best customized tour that shines for family travelers with young children
It includes popular activities like traditional Malaysian experiences, monkey feeding, and firefly watching, all prepared to satisfy children's perspectives.
The meal is also something everyone can enjoy, regardless of age or preference.
An itinerary with less burden on travel and stamina
Due to the nature of firefly tours, the firefly spots are typically far from the city.
The Tuai point has a shorter travel time compared to Nanaun and Bongawan, which are famous for firefly tours.
Since the Tuai point is about 1 hour and 30 minutes from the city, you can focus more on the tour itself.
More comfortable with a tour exclusively for Korean travelers
This tour is designed exclusively for Korean travelers.
Although there is no Korean-speaking guide, we have been conducting tours for Koreans for many years, so you can enjoy it comfortably without any communication difficulties.

These are the Batik results expressed in colorful and pretty colors.

After the Batik experience, you can also try the blowpipe together.
A blowpipe is literally a game where you blow with your mouth to hit a target,
and this is also a traditional Malaysian experience.
It is a traditional tool used by Malaysian indigenous people for hunting, and it is an experience where you blow air into a long tube to shoot an arrow.
It is a special experience that allows you to directly experience local culture and lifestyle, and everyone, regardless of age or gender, finds it interesting.
(4) Mangrove forest monkey feeding experience
Shall we take a boat into the mangrove forest now?
The monkey feeding experience is not just a viewing but an experiential program, making it a course that provides nature learning opportunities for children and healing time for parents.

Once you have seen the monkeys, the sky will gradually turn orange,
so we will move to a beach where the sunset is clearly visible to watch the sunset and take life shots.
We will take beautiful and cool photos against the backdrop of the golden sunset!
The staff will work hard to take beautiful photos for you in various poses and concepts.

This is the highlight of the tour, right?
Let's go see the sparkling fireflies!
You can see fireflies on other tours, but the Tuai Firefly Tour boasts more fireflies than anywhere else.
The core of the firefly tour is when countless fireflies gather together and shine.
When you arrive at the firefly habitat, the staff will sing in Malay, saying 'Mari mari~'.
Then, fireflies will suddenly appear, sparkling here and there.

You can encounter so many sparkling fireflies like this!
It is such a beautiful and mysterious sight, isn't it?
This kind of firefly tour is possible at Tuai :)
