Fireflies Tour

The Fireflies Tour is one of the most magical experiences you can have in Bintan. Starting after sunset, you'll embark on a small boat along the calm river amidst the mangrove forest, witnessing the twinkling lights of fireflies adorning the trees like natural Christmas lights.

This tour takes place on the Sebong River, which remains naturally preserved. As the boat slowly glides through the night's darkness, clusters of firefly lights emerge, blending with the stars in the sky and the reflections of trees on the water's surface. This experience is suitable for all ages—couples, families, and solo travelers seeking a peaceful and memorable moment.

Local guides will typically explain the mangrove ecosystem and the role of fireflies in the environment. There's no noisy engine, just the gentle lapping of water, the symphony of nocturnal insects, and the splash of paddles in the water, creating a profoundly serene atmosphere.

Since this tour is highly dependent on weather and moon conditions (the best time is when the moon is not too bright), it's strongly recommended to schedule in advance and be flexible with departure times.

Amazing Bintan Trips provides convenient pick-up and drop-off services and tour arrangements to the location, with timings that can be adjusted to your travel plans. Enjoy a different kind of night—natural, gentle, and filled with the natural light of Bintan's tropical forest.
