Siewss 1st Gear October 5, 2010 Share October 5, 2010 Thinking of going for a holiday in Langkawi in Dec. with family. I presume there is a flight from Sin to Langkawi. Is it better to stay in Resort or Hotel ? Is it better to go Free and Easy or Package tour ? How many days would be enough ? Any kind soul to shere the above ? I recommend the following (based on my own itinerary 3 yrs back): Stay in a resort - Pelangi was great! Free & Easy - this works if you rent & self-drive 4D3N - enough to see/enjoy all the major attractions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beehive3783 Turbocharged October 5, 2010 Share October 5, 2010 Dec is monsoon season leh.. sure u wanna go Langkawi? you may not be able to go for the water activities such as island hopping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beehive3783 Turbocharged October 5, 2010 Share October 5, 2010 Oh ya.. free and easy will be good enough, just take a few days to do some research on your itinerary and I suggest you also rent a car to drive around the attractions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a car and just drive around, but suggest you that don't need to pump full. pump, say like half first? driving around the needs perhaps less than 1/4 of your tank? Well pretty much depends on the make of the car. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yipsy1 Neutral Newbie October 5, 2010 Share October 5, 2010 Dec is monsoon season leh.. sure u wanna go Langkawi? you may not be able to go for the water activities such as island hopping. On the contrary, Dec/Jan is the BEST season to go Langkawi. Think you are referring to monsoon in Tioman, and Redang, eastern part of Malaysia. My itinerary when I was at Langkawi: Day 1 Eagle Feeding/Mangrove Tour Day 2 Langkawi Cable Car Day 3 Payar Island Marine Park Did not self drive. Just took a cab as and when needed.

Is it better to stay in Resort or Hotel ? Is it better to go Free and Easy or Package tour ? How many days would be enough ? Any kind soul to shere the above ? 1) Resort better, nothing much to see in the city area anyway. 2) F&E. Anyway for cable car, eagle feeding, scuba, snorkeling u can always join the package provided by the hotel. 3) 3 nites just nice. Island hop + main attraction 1 day. 1 day sea activities, 1 day relax... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure whether the airport still got cars to rent already. Cause in April2010, I heard over the news, they say alot of illegal renting of cars, so decided to catch and cease operations, uhmm, or maybe I hear wrongly?
