Langkawi Half Day Island Hoping Tour- Sharing basis

We waited on a very, very busy jetty where all of the tour operators ran from. Over half an hour late, we left, around 25 people squashed on a boat. No SOPs, some people didn’t even wear face masks. The first island was the worst, as so much litter and people making fun of the monkeys and ‘play fighting’ with them. Monkeys eating from empty packets of food on the floor and even drinking Fanta from a cup, so sad to see. Nothing to do on the island apart from water sports on a lake, which has ruined the lake! The second island was no different, apart from there being a littered beach instead of a lake and monkeys still being ridiculed and fed crisps. The view looking out from both islands was great, but both islands were heartbreaking and something needs to be done to change them. Seeing the eagles was a great experience, but this happens within the mangrove tours so would suggest that instead to avoid the islands that have been utterly ruined. Driver was nice and boat ride was good.

Tour was somewhat disorganised but took us to the three islands specified. Pregnant maiden lake was hugely overcrowded and you are only allowed to swim in an area the size of a swimming pool. Beach island was also way too crowded and covered in litter (bags bottles tyres etc)

We had a great tour of the islands with many activities, great boat riding and comfortable, not too many people in the boat (about 5-7)
