Langkawi - Apr 19-21

Hi there,

Planning to go to Langkawi for 3 days - apr 19-21 with the SO.

Where would be the best place to rent a car as there is no public transportation/buses?

Wondering what are the activities recommended, restaurants/bars/markets to go to, etc. Generally anything that comes to mind would be greatly appreciated!

Langkawi - Apr 19-21

Hi

There are lots of places to rent cars in Langkawi - the airport being one of them. You are correct, there is no public transport on the island but taxis are plentiful and not badly priced.

Langkawi is a very laid back island and most activities revolve around the beach, wildlife and nature. Do not expect any sort of wild nightlife!

If you look under the tab on the left of the page marked ';Things to Do'; this will give you some idea of the activities.

A couple of things which spring to mind is a trip on the cable car up Mat Cincang - amazing, canoeing in the mangroves, sailing trip with Blue Water Star Sailing to one of the smaller islands, visit one of the numerous spas on the island and just generally relax and unwind.

There are numerous restaurants in the Pantai Cenang area and others around the island. Everyone has their own favourites, so the list could be endless.

Enjoy

Thanks Steady for the info thus far..

How much would it cost approx. for car rental/day?

Yes, I realize that Langkawi is laid back; which is one of the reasons why we want to go there.. we will be in KL and HK as well so nature, beach, and R+R are what we are hoping for :)

I read a few of the forums/things to do, and just wanted opinions in regards to what people enjoyed the most, and food/restaurant recommendations.

Thanks


Hi

Depending on your preferences for car type you should be able to hire a car for RM80 - RM100 per day.

If you were staying longer this price can be negotiated down.

Hope that you enjoy your time in Langkawi.
