Itinerary
Meet and greet your private driver at the Cruise Terminal or Langkawi hotel lobby (As per your package choose) around 0830 - 0900 hours in the Morning or 1400 hours in the afternoon for the pickup from hotel to the jetty. You should apply and carry enough sun block lotion to avoid sun burns and also carry bottles of drinking water. Once arrived at the jetty, you will be transferred to the boat and begin the Langkawi island hoping.
Our first stop (stop while still in the boat near the island only) is the eagle watching. The boatman will stop the engine and throw some chicken pieces out into the water to invite the eagles. And in no time you will see eagles diving down just next to you and clawing up the chicken pieces and eating them as they soar into the sky.
Next we proceed to Pulau Dayang Bunting which will take about 20 minutes to reach this fascinating island jetty. This is a wonderful scenic fresh water lake surrounded by mountains that are covered with dense forests. The lake was formed when a large underwater cave collapsed many years back. You will also see large limestone formations. From the lake if you look at the mountains at the fringes, you can clearly see an outline of a woman lying on her back who is 6-7 months pregnant, and thus the name of the lake. Having enjoyed Dayang Bunting island and the lake for about 40 minutes, you will walk back to the island jetty to get back to your boat. The next stop is the island Pulau Singa Besar. The name of the island means "Island of Big Lions", although there are no lions here. The name was probably given for its shape.
Pulau Beras Basah is the last stop in the tour. You will get about one hour here. So after a tiring day under scorching sun, if you just want to lounge and relax, find one of the many shady trees and enjoy the views as the gentle breeze flows. Otherwise take a stroll along the old pier at the island.
After about an hour at Pulau Beras Basah, you will head back to the Jetty and then back to your hotel or cruise terminal.

Langwaki has become commercialised. The tour guide was amazing. However the toilets were 1RM and you were unable to swim in the lake of the pregnant lady without a life jacket costing 25RM. There was a time when you could just jump in at no cost. The Parasailing was really good though and children loved it but otherwise an example of how the island has changed. Still a five star as the actual service was very personal, shame about the way it’s become.
We went to three islands, private boat but we didn’t took transfers. It’s was a fun boat ride, our captain was very friendly and informative. We alighted at dayang bunting island and beras basah island. We did kayaking in tasik dayang bunting and there’s monkeys at jetty area. We took donut boat and swimming in beras basah area. Unfortunately there’s no snorkelling since it raining season and the water is not clear. There’s also singa besar island, where you can watch eagles feedings and flying around from your boat.
Booked a private boat via BCR langkawi tour it was awesome pick up was provided as aloft hotel is just a few minutes drive. Boatman was very polite and courteous and navigate the boat around calmly at a very nice cruising speed skipped Pulau Dayang Bunting as my knee cant take the climb to go to the lake and spend 2 hours on Beras Basah Island where we swam ride the jet ski banana boat and something similar to banana boat ( can’t remember the name of the ride🤭🤭) paid 150 for 3pax on the banana boat and the other ride and 180 rm for jet ski for 40 minutes. Simply awesome had a good time with the family.
