    Last minute planned to Sunway Lagoon after the water park we planned to bring the kids was closed ok Wednesday. On the spot googled and booked tickets through this app and got discount + deducted by my previous trip coins so cheaper than buy ok the site. It was a fun dah with the kids. We went from 11 am - 8 pm and tried almost all the rides. The best and the most fun part was the waves at Surf Beach. My kids really enjoyed here plus got animals + other fun rides. Worth the price and definitely will cole again 🤍

    We loved seeing the aquarium. It’s a quick experience for the kids to have some fun and get lost in these little micro ecosystems. We particularly enjoyed the feeding show and the tunnel!

    Please dont bring big bag because ull have to rent a locker small rm 22 and big one double the price just for 4 hours. Because a lot of ride will ask you to keep ur belonging in locker. Not all ride avaible at time. Sometimes they close due to services. Sometimes not all times.. make sure you always wearing SHOE. Do not wear heels or slipper or crocs. If you dont like que, u can book all ride in their apps. Limited booking que for some tickets. Choose rite date because u will not meet a lot of visitor at once and have long que.

    Tanjung Aru Beach is one of the most beautiful and popular beaches in Malaysia, especially known for its stunning sunsets. The beach has soft sand, calm waters, and a relaxed atmosphere that attracts both locals and tourists. It’s a great place for walking, jogging, picnics, or simply enjoying the sea breeze. Nearby food stalls and cafés offer local snacks and drinks, adding to the pleasant experience. The beach is clean, spacious, and easy to access, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a busy day.Tips: • Visit in the late afternoon for sunset views • Try local street food nearby • Bring a mat or towel to sit on • Keep small cash for vendors

    This was a nearly perfect trip. With the insurance premium of 2,260 yuan, we achieved a cost of more than 4,000 yuan. Usually, there are time limits for one-day and half-day tours, but buying a package ticket on Ctrip broke the time limit. The staff member who connected with Ctrip's Sky Mirror was a little sister. She was beautiful and kind, and provided thoughtful service. She helped to provide pick-up and drop-off for our tour guide Akai. He was thoughtful and professional, and was especially good at guiding children. He took us hiking in the mangroves and gave us an in-depth understanding of the mangrove ecology. If the children can communicate in English, they can also discuss and communicate with the English tour guide in the scenic area. When the children were tired, they were like big brothers. We encouraged them, and the time for Sekinchan, the fishing boats in the fishing village, and the wishing tree was perfect. The kids loved eating, so we took them to a special mango meal. Worried about being late for feeding eagles and watching fireflies, we took a detour. He was a very professional driver and guide. The kids wanted to eat roadside squid, and he found it for them regardless of time. The Sky Mirror trip was perfect and a place worth visiting. The photos we took were absolutely beautiful. I'd like to express my special thanks to the attentive and considerate young lady, the professional Akai, and the boat crew who took us on the boat trip. I'm especially grateful to the Sky Mirror photographer, who is truly professional!
