Reviews
Highly recommended tour and a must-try if you’re in Langkawi. The whole experience was really enjoyable, especially the kayaking was super fun being out in nature and very peaceful. Seeing the mangroves up close was amazing and something you don’t get to experience every day. Our guide, Jien, was amazing, very patient and had great knowledge, which made the tour even more interesting. The views were absolutely stunning, and the food was a real highlight as well - everything was delicious. Overall, it was a truly memorable experience, and having Jien as our guide made it even better. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Langkawi.
Instructors: We want to share our great thanks for your outstanding guiding tour. Our tour guides Rhodi and Jien's competence was perceived as extremely professional. They're amazing guides who have a great knowledge of the environment we were touring, and guided us properly all over the entire adventure. Foods were amazing in the middle of nowhere on a floating restaurant - thank's to the chef! It was a fun experience and the highlight of our 10day Langkawi Adventure tour.
Very good experience. We participated in different activities in many areas we visited. In this area, we chose the mangrove canoe activity. In other areas, there are too many people, the quality of the activity has declined, and even the toilet has to be charged. Here, It is very clean and the quality of the activities is very good. Only 8 of us participated in the entire mangrove reserve. The tour guide is very professional. I also went to a small island to visit the bat cave, and also explained the history of geology. The ecological environment. The final download We went to an uninhabited island and swam freely. We ate at a sea hut at noon, which was very delicious. The environment was very clean. We also enjoyed a quiet lunch alone. There were no other tourists. This activity is highly recommended. Only one complaint is for Klook, this registration is the day before the registration, and I received the participation voucher on the day of registration. However, I did not receive the notification of Klook’s pre-participation reminder (other activity registrations have been received). On the day of the collection, we went by ourselves, and the responsible tour guide did not know us. I wanted to participate, but it was resolved after communication. Fortunately, I also participated in the itinerary smoothly.
The paddling experience was very good. I started paddling from the beginning and padded through the entire mangrove forest, and then rowed to another meeting point. I padded non-stop for more than an hour. At the end of the trip, there was a small island where you could swim and have lunch.
def an activity that you should try if you want to avoid the crowd. had fun kayaking all over the area, quite tiring but the view is so breathtaking eventho i relate it a bit like jurassic park movie! hahaha the instructor was good too!! and lunch prepared was marvelous. would recommend if you want to do something that is out of big crowd.
Great experience, kayaking tour guide is very calm and composed. Its tiring but worth to see its beautiful sightseeing. There were only 2 of us, finished early and went for swimming in river near Datai. Lunch is the best ones I had in Langkawi, delicious local delicacies 😋
A pleasant kayaking tour followed by a delicious Malay lunch. You can get close to the mangroves in the 1/2/3 person kayak. Two staff in kayaks were there to guide the participants. A motorised safety boat follows you. Overall, a nice little workout in a scenic setting. But it can get hot..so prepare accordingly.
Our tour guide Jien was extremely knowledgeable about the flora and fauna around the area. Managed to see some brown winged kingfishers, eagles, mudskippers etc. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on this kayaking experience! The homecooked style food at the end was extremely delicious too!
The guide together with the boatman gave us a very good experience at the mangrove area. They spotted a snake nestling on a tree and drove the boat near it to let us observe it. I did appreciate that our tour didn’t prepare us to feed the monkeys and eagles like others do. Responsible operator! We learned a lot about the importance of mangroves and about environmental conservation. Highly recommended especially for families with kids.
my waiting list to go but too bad it's raining in the morning and the trip cancel. the organizer are very kind to help on the refund in klook. definitely will come back again. the photos are taken at pantai tengkorak near to the gathering point.
