There's not much to see nearby, so ensure that you are really keen to see it. The tours don't start until the sun is fully down, so it may even start at 8pm even when they say 7pm. Do put on insect repellent, lots of it. Don't bother taking photos as it's too dark anyway. Just enjoy the ride and be mesmerized about the butt lighting up !

You can see many fireflies. They are living in the brushes alone the river side. There are many small boats send you to very close to them. The whole trip is about half hour, and 50RM per boat, which allow 4 adults sit in. Go there in a dark night without moon will make you experience memorable.
