Proceed to Kuala Selangor town with one of the largest firefly colonies in the world. On arrival at Kuala Selangor, visit “Kota Melawati”, a historic hill that features the remains of a late 18th century fortress. Formerly known as “Fort Altingsburg”, its top hill provides scenic view of the Selangor coastline as its backdrop, and Straits of Malacca can be seen on a clear day. Apart from being a historical site, Melawati Hill is also home to the silver-leaf monkeys and long tailed macaques which will greet the visitors. Next, proceed to the quiet hamlet of Kampung Kuantan – the highlight of the tour. Row upstream in a small boat in the quiet darkness to witness the blinking trees. This scintillating display of fireflies portrays an image of a flashing Christmas tree. The thousands of fireflies found in the mangrove swamp of Kampung Kuantan produce the synchronized, rhythmic flashing. The skilled local oarsmen make this experience a memorable and unforgettable one.&nbsp;
Tips: Please bring insect repellent.&nbsp;
