5.00Brilliant trip, just what I was hoping for, a quiet location away from the main tourist areas. Made all the better by our excellent and knowledgeable guide Rodhi. You see so much more from a kayak

5.00We had an absolutely wonderful experience! Everything was well organized and truly memorable. Our guide, Jien, was outstanding; extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the mangroves. He shared so much interesting information about the local flora and fauna, making the tour both fun and educational. The boatsman and his son were incredibly kind and welcoming. The food was also delicious. You can really tell how much care they put into everything. Highly recommended to anyone visiting the area!
Memorable Kubang Bayak Kayaking tour

5.00We went on the Kubang Bayak Kayaking trip with Jien Sze as our guide. It was our first time kayaking in langkawi and was very memorable for the heavy rain shower that passed (which was actually quite fun and cooling). Kubang Bayak is a beautiful and quiet spot for kayaking. JS is a fantastic guide - extremely knowledgeable, very nice and patient. We would happily book this tour again.
100% recommended

Two excellent trips with Junglewalla

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We had an amazing time on both the mangrove kayaking and birdwatching trip with Yoni and Jien. They were both very spritely, friendly and informative, provided all necessary equipment and giving us wonderfully varied tour experiences. Kayaking started with some info about the mangroves and 90 mins travelling outward to the coast, followed by a look at some caves home to a colony of bats, and tasty lunch served on a local floating restaurant. Birding started early with a pickup from our hotel and a tour of a variety of habitats including garden, mountain, mangrove, coastal and paddy field environments. Unfortunately, heavy rain cut off our tour early but not before our guide spotted a flock of Great Hornbills from a way off, which we honed in on and got a great view of. Junglewalla offered us 2 inclusive hours of birding for the next day due to the bad weather, Thanks a lot Junglewalla!
