What To Expect
Dayang Bunting Island
The name Pulau Dayang Bunting translates to 'lsle of the Pregnant Maiden', named because from a distance the hills resemble the silhouette of a pregnant lady. However, this also relates to the belief that barren women will fall pregnant after swimming in the freshwater lake that the island is best known for. To access the lake and uncover whether the legend is true, take a 15-minute hike from the jetty up a concrete stairway through the lush forest. This is a delightful and picturesque place to swim or hire a kayak or paddleboat, surrounded by rolling hills, limestone formations, and mangrove trees, although it has an average depth of ten metres with no shallow areas. Life jackets are available to hire from a nearby shop. A boardwalk by the lake will lead you through the mangrove forest, where you can discover an abundance of intriguing limestone cave waiting to be explored.

Good once it got going but very late leaving and disorganized at the office.

2.00Boat was 1 hour late leaving so a 3-4 hour trip was only 2.5 hours. Driver of the boat was friendly and polite but driver extremely fast. Could improve the path to the lake. Not suitable if you’re not fit and able.
Stay in town - get an umbrella and loungers off the guys on the beach.

1.00Basically a boat ride to 2 islands. The pick up was 1/2 hour late and then we still had to wait at the collection point. Left the dock just after 10:00 am and the boat ride was OK (you get wet but that’s ok) - to an island that has a PAID ENTRY FEE to walk up to the lake. Not worth the price of admission. Then a short ride to see the boat driver throw a small bucket of fish parts in the water to watch 50 or so eagles swoop down and grab the food. We were there for about 3 minutes. Then to another island where you can swim- not really a great beach. Back on the boat and wet ride back to the dock and returned to the hotel at 1:15. I would not recommend this excursion to any of my friends.

4.00The trip itself is ok. There is a lack of information during the trip. There are no explanations it is only hop on hop off.If you want just to use the boat only on travel purposes is fine to book this trip. If you expect more find something different.
Beautiful

5.00Such a beautiful island, so nice color of the water. Love the swings and the water is also clean. There are too many monkeys so please be aware of the bags.
Not as advertised.

2.00Really not as advertised. We paid extra for a private boat, the boat journey was the nicest thing about the morning, but it wasnt worth nearly £135. Yes we got picked up from our hotel, yes the guide spoke English, so this was as advertised. We arrived at the dock and were left with another tour company to give us stickers and let us know which boat we were to embark on. Our boat driver did not speak English, it wasnt a problem for us, but just something to note if it is. Then we were taken to Beras Besah which is essentially a tourist trap. You are stranded for an hour in the blistering heat with very little shade and nothing to do/explore. You could only access the beach, everywhere else had restricted access signs - so no pier to explore. So unless you paid for watersports you have to huddle under the shade of the few trees with hundreds of other tourists. Then we were taken to feed the eagles (this was not on the itinerary). This consisted of the boat driver throwing some food into the sea and waiting for the eagles to come. This to be fair was quite nice seeing the wildlife up close. There was no second stop for an hour at Pulau Singha - didnt exist. Not sure where it was and definitely didnt see any wildlife. Biggest disappointment. We were then taken to the final stop at Pregnant Maiden. Soooo many people all crammed onto one tiny little island space. You can literally only climb up to the lake (which is MR20 per adult - price should have been advertised). You have a relatively short time here in comparison to how long queues are so by the time you get up to the lake and in for a quick dip, you have to go back to the boat, which again means no time for exploring the boardwalk and limestone. The boat then took us back to the dock, where the boat driver couldnt wait to unload us and set off again. Our driver was waiting for us to bring us back to the resort. Very disappointing and not what was advertised. Wouldnt waste the huge amount of money for this trip.
Felt like a tourist trap

3.00Realistically, only visited two islands with the first one being the pregnant maiden, which was really nice. The second island was tiny and felt like a tourist trap as they leave you for an hour, and the only thing you can do are overpriced boat and jetski excursions. Overall, it was quite meh. There are a lot of boats and companies all doing the exact same thing at the same time as well. Feels a bit like cattle getting herded on and off boats.
Memorable holiday
