An excellent and... - An excellent and enjoyable excursion with some great places visited and lots of photo opportunities. My only criticism is that the driver who picked us up from the port and took us to the place we got on the boat did not give any commentary.

Excellent trip with an excellent company! - We had a wonderful time on this tour with our 7 & 10 year old! The guide Hasan (sp?) was really knowledgeable and cared deeply about the ecology of the mangrove forest and the animals there. We saw eagles, monkeys, bats, and even dolphins! Our daughter tends to get seasick so I was nervous about going but she didn’t feel sick at any point! Definitely a highlight of the trip to Langkawi and I highly recommend this company. Booking couldn’t have been easier and they pick you up at your hotel!

An experience not to be missed, one of the highlights of our holiday in Langkawi! - I rarely write reviews, only reviewing experiences I truly believe others may enjoy or benefit from. This Half Day Mangrove Boat Tour with Lunch in Langkawi firmly fits within my criteria. From start to finish this experience was organised flawlessly. We got picked up from our hotel precisely on time. Upon arrival at the jetty we only had to wait a few minutes before we were shown to our private boat for the morning. Our skipper was very welcoming and informative. We got taken to all the sites mentioned in the itinerary and had as long as we wanted at each (within reason obviously). We got to see monkeys and a snake in the mangroves, eagles diving for food in the rivers and dolphins swimming in the sea. The scenery was breathtaking, with our skipper pointing out noteworthy landmarks. The lunch at the floating fish farm was simple, yes, but was so flavourful we had to ask for seconds! Do not get put off by how simple it sounds. Crispy chicken, tasty rice, a herbal soup and orange cordial drink with orange wedges for dessert. We were also shown some of the many incredible fish they had on show which we got to feed and even touch a few. Overall this experience is not to be missed and I fully recommend you to go for it. You won't be disappointed.

Nicely organised, value for money - Was a well organised tour. The tour company, Al Qads Transport was very prompt in responding and updating me every time I contacted them via WhatsApp. The tour guide/boat driver was very knowledgeable and informative. The spots covered were beautiful. Overall a nicely done trip well worth the price.

The boat trip was amazing, but the bus driver is a creep - The boat tour itself was stunning! Amazing places to see. However, the person who picked us up from the hotel and transferred back was very weird… It was impossible to understand him… Also, he was constantly taking pictures/maybe videos of us without any consent… and we don’t understand why it was needed… it was very creepy Moreover, we arrived at the departure spot 50 minutes prior to the boats departure, having to wait for everyone under the heavy rain
