What travelers are saying
- Hwei O31 contributionsGreat views up, except it was cloudy at the top so we didn’t get to see the full panoramic view of Langkawi. Was very busy and would recommend getting an express pass to avoid the long queues. We didn’t realise the 3D art place was included in our pass, but they still allowed us to visit that the following day which was good of them.Written July 2, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heli PHelsinki, Finland6,339 contributionsCrossing from Kuala Perlis in an old crowded and bad smelling ferry took 1,5 hours. The timetables had changes as the water level on mainland couldn't allways permit departure. When returning after three weeks I had to travel to the small fishing village Kuala Kedah for the same reason. Luckily there was a fixed priced taxi to Alor Setar 20 minutes away and a commuter train to Butterworth once an hour costing only 7 rm.Written February 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Laylan GSingapore, Singapore368 contributionsIt is near to the Langkawi Airport, very convenoient and it cost around RM15 if you GRAB taxi from the airport. I suggest you booked the ticket online then redeem at the counter 30mins before the ferry time. there is nothing to explore around that area. There is only 1 cafe available for meal. I strongly suggest that you take your meal before heading to the ferry terminal. It was such a waste that the restaurants around were closed , maybe due to Covid that they were not able to survive.
The process from getting a ferry ticket to embark to the ferry are pretty straight farward, no hassle, it was just no place to chill while you are waiting for your ferry, so don't get there too early. The ferry ticket is RM320 for return.Written April 8, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Normally you don’t need a taxi to go around Cenang beach area and the longest drive in Langkawi is about 40 min (is 25 Km from North to South).
We have taken (1) a taxi from the airport to our hotel in Cenang Beach in Langkawi (and the opposite), (2) from Cenang Township to Kuah (capital of the island) and retour, as well as a taxi (3) to go around the island [(about 4-5 hours), e.g. 7 wells waterfalls, Black Sand beach, Cable Car, Crocodile farm, white beach, etc.]. For the last two trips we have used a taxi (8 seater van) with a very good taxi-driver (named Hamid bin Ngah), who was reliable, entertaining and polite. The prices were fixed and this was good in avoiding (in the majority of cases) any possible dispute (although a little bargaining could be done).
In order to go around we have used taxis from the two taxi stands on Jalan Pantai Chenang (a) one almost opposite the Cenang Mall and (b) the other outside the Langkawi Aquarium (Underwater World Langkawi), where they have the tables with the fixed prices for all possible taxi routes in the island of Langkawi.
Summing up we found the Langkawi Taxi Service reliable, we had good taxi-drivers and we cannot hesitate to suggest them.Written May 1, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He took great care of the group from start to end.Written July 10, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Wan BKuala Lumpur, Malaysia22 contributionsGreat views, the wind blows so soft n cool, sunlight is great, not to be missed. The waiting line is fast, n the cable car riding is great n scary at the same time. We enjoyed so much.
The 6D animation and 3D muzium are the best. We love it.Written February 12, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He was helpful, experienced, fun, professional and overall very easy-going. If you want to have a worry free excursion, book through GC Butler. They will arrange everything for you, pick you up from where you are staying, drop you off after you are done, stay with you throughout the day, giving lots of useful information, tips and taking photos and videos all the time.
Nor later shared all the photos with us and I was surprised of the amount. Many photos were taken without us even noticing, which made them even more authentic and spontaneous.
Thank you Nor for two wonderful trips.Written August 18, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I booked early for our group of 7 people visiting the island for one day from a cruise.
Firstly it was easy to make the arrangements from the UK by email (langkawitaxi@yahoo.com) and questions were quickly answered. When we arrived we were met on time by the driver/owner who was lovely and informative.
We started with a 3 hour island hop which we all loved. We fed eagles and visited beaches and reserves. The boat trip was fast and exillerating - be prepared for a bumpy but fun ride!
We next went to the Skybridge, the entry was not included in the price, but as the trip was so reasonable per person it was not a problem at all. We had a fantastic gondola ride over the rain forest and walked along the Skybridge. My advice would be to buy a ticket that includes the transport from the gondola to the actual sky bridge, it is quite a hike in the steamy climate.
We followed this by visits to Eagle Square, some waterfalls and finally to Kuah for duty free shopping.
In Kuah some of our group were gasping for a beer, can I recommend a small cafe called Dominos. We had beers and a wonderful tuna sandwich which was tastier than any food on the cruise ship! We were the only people in the cafe and the owner and his wife were lovely.
We were taken back to the ship on time and safely by our driver.
Highly recommended by all our group who were a mixed group from Australia, UK and New Zealand.Written February 5, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- harland g1 contributionWe met Azri just before COVID paralyzed everything. We were off the Star Clipper. The date listed is incorrect as it was actually Feb. 2020. He met us, two couples and gave us an unforgettable daylong adventure. Cable car, mangrove tour and batcave. This is a truly unique and nice person who took two older couples under his wing and made a spectacular day. If you see an adventure listed by Azri, grab it be grateful you did. We sure were. Azri, hugs from the silly Americans you gratified that day.Written August 4, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
