We were really happy with our island hopping tour with Bryan! The whole experience was smooth and well-organized. Bryan was punctual, communicated clearly, and was warm and friendly throughout. He took us to all the spots we wanted to visit and everything went to plan. One of the highlights was the fishing - we actually caught some grouper and then got them steamed for lunch which was a nice bonus! The food provided at lunch was generous and delicious, and some of the dishes were refillable. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was excellent value for money, and we’d definitely recommend it to others visiting! 😃

For the money, a good excursion, everything is well organized, an hour on the beach, the beach is very beautiful with clear water, but we were unlucky, there was a lot of plankton. Beautiful eagle watching, and then an hour on the island with a lake and beautiful rocks, we liked it the most, swimming in the lake was great!

A really nice experience — definitely worth trying if you’ve never done it! The lake and the sea were both so beautiful, with clear blue water and peaceful scenery. The stop at Dayang Bunting Lake was a highlight, seriously stunning! But I wish we had more time there. One hour felt too short, especially if you want to hike, swim, and still have time to get back to the base area. Maybe extending the stop would make the experience even better. The boat itself felt safe, and the driver boat was friendly and helpful, so no issues there at all. The eagle-watching part was okay, but quite brief — it’s mostly just watching the birds from the boat before heading to the next stop. Not super exciting, but still nice to see. Overall, great value, smooth ride, and a fun way to explore Langkawi’s islands from the water.

I bought 4 attractions + Cable Car and honestly, it was one of the best travel decisions I made during this trip! Super convenient, but please take note, for some attractions, you’ll still need to redeem a physical ticket at the counter before entering, even with the Klook Pass QR. I picked MAHA Tower for sunset — calm vibes and you’ll get some food too! Dream Forest at night was like a glowing fairytale forest. This one i super recommend, really fun and worth it! Next day, I did SkyCab and joined the Island Hopping Speedboat Tour. Smooth ride, beautiful islands, enough time to chill by the beach. Last day, I went to Underwater World. Not much to see, I spent maybe an hour there. The pass saved me money and made my itinerary balanced — good mix of nature, views, and indoor fun. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Langkawi and wanting a fuss-free way to enjoy the top attractions. Definitely worth it!

Absolutely incredible — a total must go experience and it is so fun swear, don’t miss this place!🔥 It’s one of the most magical and immersive experiences in Langkawi. The whole trail feels like you’re walking through a glowing fairytale with lights, sounds, and storytelling that really pulls you in. Super recommended for anyone who loves fantasy vibes! One thing to note: the experience involves walking the entire time. There are some uphill and downhill parts, so for elderly visitors or those with limited mobility, it might be a bit tiring, but there are places to stop and rest. Also, near the end of the trail, the lighting felt a little underwhelming compared to the beginning. Would be great if they added more lights to match the wow-factor from the start! Other than that, it’s honestly 5/5 for me. A beautiful, different kind of activity that makes Langkawi feel magical at night. Don’t skip it!
