    Great 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.

    Go Early in the morning and you'll practically have the bridge to yourselves!

    We didn't bother with any of the village gimmicky shops as were a couple in our 60's travelling without kids so went straight to the bridge as soon as it opened and avoided the crowds.. I was lovely and peaceful. it's not huge but worth the trip as the views are fabulous. You don't need to book this trip through a company as an excursion. just go by grab and buy a ticket from the booth.

    This really should be the #1 activity in Langkawi. We took the 2 hour tour and it was amazing - great guide and so much to see.

    Nice falls with shady pools to splash in. A hot walk up but worth it if you want to see nature on Langkawi.

    A long walk up on badly maintained trail but fun to experience to swim in COLD water in Malaysia. Too bad the park is not better maintained for visitors. This is my favorite waterfall of all the ones on Langkawi.

    We did the more expensive platform trip and it was well worth it. When we arrived to organised chaos, the tide was out and snorkeling was only an option from the platform. Only after 1pm or so could the beach goers actually snorkel out far enough to see anything.
    English information was scarce and food was disappointing, and the boat home left 10 minutes early, not sure what would happen if you were still enjoying the underwater viewing chamber since there were no English announcements!
    Would recommend the platform over the beach option

    Please come morning, because in the afternoon, even at 11am, you will get sweat due to the hot sun! Take along your hat, sunglasses, bottle water and have a good walking shoes then you will enjoy the scenery.

    We were the only family team of 3 taking the 2-hr tour as the others were all on the 4-hr itinerary. As a result we had a private tour led by our wonderful guide Ari. He was always clear in his safety and navigation instructions. We got to see pristine beaches and eagle feeding on the tour. If time permits, I strongly recommend the 4-hr tour! You won't regret it! Just make sure you are properly protected in the sun as you would be out in the sea.

    This place is very good for go-jarring for young kids. My 6 year old loved it so much. There wasn’t any queue and the process was straightforward. Don’t forget to wear closed-toe shoes before your visit. Only drawback was there should be some kind of back-support or cushions for kids who are slightly shorter and cannot reach the pedestal in the kart. The staff was too kind to provide a temporary cushioning mid-way for my little way. Thank you.

    Farly was a brilliant and fun tour guide and answered any questions we had. He also took various photos (all very well taken) throughout the process and sent to each member of the group after the tour ended, meaning we only needed to focus on the kayaking without the need to take photos.

    Overall I really enjoyed this tour and would definitely recommend to others!

    I must say, it was an absolutely unforgettable adventure! From start to finish, every aspect of the journey exceeded my expectations, leaving me with cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

    Zam and his crew were the epitome of warmth and hospitality. As soon as we stepped aboard, we were greeted with genuine smiles and a heartfelt welcome that immediately put us at ease. Their enthusiasm for what they do was palpable, and it quickly became evident that they were passionate about providing an exceptional experience for every guest.

    We had great fun with Abhu and team. Snorkelling first thing in the morning followed by mangrove caves, eagles and fish farm. Abhu even went off itinerary and took us to a waterfall on the way home as well as a stop off at a local shop. Great fun for all the family my boys are 12 and 8 and it was super safe and perfect for them.
