Head out for an exciting guided cruise through the meandering passages of the Kubang Badak River! Meet your local guide at the Kubang Badak Jetty for a brief orientation before hopping on a boat to start your adventure along the coastal river. Unique species of flora and fauna, which have adapted to the ever changing environment in the mangrove forest, are truly beautiful sights to behold. If you're lucky, you'll get to see some exotic animals such as the white-bellied sea eagles, brahminy kites, kingfishers, herons, mudskippers, fiddler crabs and monitor lizards, and otters.

Reviews
We had a wonderful outing with Shefwan from JungleWalla. It was like taking a crash course in mangroves and limestone formation. He gave the info in short tidbits that were easy to remember. So glad the place is a geo-park and being conserved. Interesting sights, followed by a short time at the beach and ended with some home cooked food.
We had an incredibly enjoyable and worthwhile trip! Our two guides were professional and knowledgeable, leading us to discover the natural ecosystem. The captain's driving skills were excellent, and the chef prepared authentic Malaysian meals that were absolutely delicious. The four of us chartered a boat and had a wonderful journey. The only minor hiccup was being given the wrong meeting point, which added an extra 35 minutes of travel to another location. However, the fantastic experience we had afterward made us forget that mistake. We highly recommend this private boat charter!
Omg what a day! I don’t even know where to start but the summary is that this was an amazing tour! Hermi our guide was outstanding, he is so knowledgeable and feed us with so much interesting information. He made the whole difference. I would have spent more time with him travelling around beautiful Langkawi and learning more facts. Please please take this tour if you come to Langkawi.
Our guide Azrim and our boatman Pa Nayan were very good. we had the mangrove all to ourselves, the explanations were in perfect English for me, and very diverse. we also saw a bate cave, were able to swim and ate divinely well in a floating restaurant. a very nice trip!
My tour guide followed me and my family to extraordinary nature of Langkawi island. Mangrove forests had the immense ecosystems of large flora and fauna. Highly recommended!
Friendly tour guide, not at all crowded, just the two of us in a boat since it's private tour. Lunches are not prepacked. They are served in a local house at the location. worth it! We were also brought to one of the secluded waterfall. Overall Great experience.
Nice trip, almost individual because there was only 5 pax.
was a great and informative trip
The local diet I had for lunch was so delicious. I learned a lot about the mangrove forests, and swimming in the valley was really good at the end. But everything is taught in English, and I feel like I'm riding a car more than I thought. Still, I was satisfied overall.
The itinerary is generally good, and the lunch is better than expected. The only thing I regret is that the turbid sea water in the swimming place is different from the clear lake water in the advertisement photos.
