Great Tour

Ashley_C, Mar 2026

I had a great day! The tour itself is only a few hours, but when you factor in travel to/from ypur hotel with multiple stops that time does add up - something to be aware about if youre making plans for afterwards. The park wasn't too busy on the day I was there which really helped the experience and I think we were given enough time at each spor. The boat ride was amazing & the park itself is just stunning. The bat cave was great too. We managed to see a lot of wildlife while in the park. Lunch was basic but fine, there are other options for lunch at an additional cost which I didn't try so not sure how good their other food was.

Need Work

Our driver was surly & forced us to walk outside the Langkawi Port parking lot past the Guard Post. His location was very unclear since all other Private Tour pick ups were happening at the entrance to parking lot closest to end of hotel pier walking path. There was plenty of parking space. This caused a lot of confusion on our part because we did not see our driver, & he did not have a sign with our name or name of XQ Holidays or Viator. We eventually contacted XQ Holidays who provided driver's location & license plate number. His English was poor, when he spoke at all. The van was old, dirty, & didn't have enough working seat belts or effective air con. We were stifling hot stuck in very back of van. It was not clear where we would meet him at end of tour. Tour itself was fun--except bat cave. Boat captains didn't help with boarding or exiting boat,which was challenging. The ride itself was fun & so was viewing of eagles. The beach was not fun, since most folks had wrong clothes. Lunch was poor. Guide Sara was great!

Very good tour.

Very good 7- hour tour in the geoforest park in the Langkawi island. A "must" for every visitor of Langkawi.

Do not miss this tour!

The tour guide was very knowledgeable, spoke English fluently and went the extra mile to try and chum the water so that I could snorkel even though the visibility was poor that day.

A must do activity in Langkawi

This trip is a must. We saw the crocodile cave, bat cave, eagles, fish farm, and went swimming on a private beach. Picked up at hotel 9.30 and returned at 3.30pm, close to a full day. Guide was outstanding

Amazing boat ride

ameya_a, Jun 2022

Very good experience. Our guide was quite good too... The views from the boat and island were quite fantastic.. definitely worth a visit. Only wish that they would give a couple of options for lunch items.

Mangrove Boat Tour - one of Langkawi's Highlights++

MrEd_K, Feb 2020

Mangrove Boat Tour +++ Had a terrific time. We were picked up on time and taken to the Mangrove area, boarded the Boat onto the Bat caves , then an guided tour of the mangrove swamp, onto the boat again and made our way to the floating Fish restaurant for Lunch. Viewed the Fish Farm with the many different fish species then after lunch back onto the Powerful Speed boats to view the Eagles/Monkeys along the River edge - then onto an secluded beach for a swim. The whole experience lived up to the advertisement and more. 10 out of 10

Something different - highly recommended

Gerard_M, Jan 2020

Had a lovely day, despite needing to cut our tour short. Time in Malaysia is not exact, so when it says a 3 hour tour, it actually was more like a 6 hour tour start to finish. We had to cut is short as we needed to be back on board our cruise ship by 4:30pm, however what we saw was amazing. The guide could not have been helpful trying to get us back to pier to get a taxi back to our ship in plenty of time. There was no way we would have made it without doing so. We missed the lunch and eagles, but still worth every penny in what we saw. If we were to go back again, I would book a private tour and have more control over the time we had. That said, if we were not on a time schedule, it would not have been an issue as the pace was good and the experience lots of fun! Bat caves, gorgeous views and cheeky monkeys - fabulous. The speed boat was an added adrenaline rush for some of us. Made the laugh!

Émerveillement et déception

Patrick_D, Feb 2023

Les paysages sont sublimes. Le guide était très agréable et disponible pour répondre aux questions. Par contre il devait gérer 3 embarcations a lui seul, ça fait usine à touristes. Les déplacements entre les sites se font à toute vitesse. Dans le bruit assourdissant des moteurs. Et le repas inclus dans l'offre est une misère qui fait honte à la cuisine malaisienne. 1 tasse de bouillon insipide, un demi verre de jus d'orange en poudre, un bol de riz et deux croquettes de poulet, pour une ferme aquatique le minimum aurait été du poisson.
