Quite a good experience. Facilities are well maintained (should be considering this only opened one year ago). Can see the amount of effort they put in for the whole decorations and vibes. Recommended. Good for families with small children, even if might be on the slightly pricier side. But worth it!

One of the best experiences we had in Langkawi! A few tips: avoid sitting at the front of the boat if you have back issues, wear rubber sandals instead of shoes, and don't forget to bring a towel and sun cream.

Everything ware great, just remind yourself each stop have a time limit of 1 hour. Don’t waste other people time waiting for you. To go to tasik dayang bunting you need to do a little walking up and down a lot of step, It take me and friends (ours average age is 28years old) about 15mins to go and another 15mins to go back to check point. For old people I suggest to just wait at the bottom they got cafe.

Mr Steven is a very knowledgeable and well experienced guide who knows his way around the islands. His boating partner, Encik Mong, is a well experienced boatman who can maneuver around the islands expertly. With them, you feel safe to travel on the high seas. The timing given for every activity was just nice. We caught many fishes and lunch was superb and we even get to enjoy our catch of the day. Tq once again for the wonderful hospitality. We will definitely come again. ☺️👍🏻
