Best guided tour of the mangroves - We really liked this tour because Farly , as already announced, is super organized and puts together the optimal package for his customers due to his many years of experience.
You are accompanied individually as the group was small with us and Farley takes great care that each person receives the kayak that fits the respective height and stature. Important information for guests over 195 cm tall!
Farley responds well to his guests and questions and concerns are implemented immediately!
Would recommend not taking your own pictures with your smartphone, as Farley will implement them better than the customers and you save your own equipment.
The final lunch with local cuisine was very nicely prepared and tasted excellent.
Can only recommend this tour from a professional point of view!

A superb, low-impact way to experience the mangrove forest with professional, knowledgeable & friendly and guide. - Took family (incl 10 & 12yr old) for a tour. What a fabulous experience! Farly really knows his stuff; he has excellent English (13yrs with Malaysia and Airlines), is friendly & approachable, and really knows all about this fascinating ecosystem. Our half day included a walk through an actual bat cave, boat ride to floating fish farm, and 5km paddle through the mangrove forest. On our way Farly took care to ensure we're all together and safe, as well as pointing out all the interesting wildlife. A mid-way swim in the river is a welcome break, and a delicious lunch at the end is wolfed down with hungry appreciation. I can't recommend Farly highly enough; book a tour, any tour with him, it'll be super. Would happily do it all again, just not tomorrow as my arms are tired...!

Fantastic experience, highly recommended - We’ve been in Malaysia for 2 weeks and this is the best thing we’ve done so far. We booked for a family group with children aged 10 & 12 (10 year old went on a double kayak with dad, plus 2 singles). Farly was very knowledgeable, friendly and experienced, with perfect English. He was very safety conscious and made the experience so much fun. Great attention to detail, including spotting wildlife whilst in the jungle, and the opportunity to feed the stingray at the fish farm. The children say it was epic!

Best ever. 100% recommend. - A 100% recommendation for this company. Booked for family party of 16 for kayaking. Farly is a really respectable, honest guy. He and his crew know their stuff and are keen to keep the mangrove alive and preserve the wonders of nature bestowed to Langkawi. Very accommodating. You have the years of experience that comes with Farly. Safety conscious is a key feature of this company. You can go on cheaper trips but not worth putting your safety at risk. Stayed with the group to make sure they experienced the best. My group age ranged from 11 to 60 yrs. everyone one was buzzing when they came back. Thank you Farly for a once in a lifetime experience.

For anyone who loves exploring nature while having a good workout, and lots of fun! - I did a tour that combined what is seen by everybody who visits the area but importantly also led to plenty of hidden treasures, and places rarely traveled. Farly is friendly and very knowledgeable! His English is impeccable. He has a keen eye for nature, discovers animals where nobody sees them, knows every corner of the Langkali mangroves, and is very accommodating. The icing on the cake is the numerous pictures he shares with you after the tour and the delicious local lunch at the end of the trip. I recommend Farly to anyone who loves exploring nature while having a good workout, and lots of fun!

Must do Langkawi experience! - We had an amazing time kayaking through the mangroves with Farly and his colleagues. We went with our 4 year old and we all had a fantastic time. It was hot but we were well looked after, lots of interesting facts as well as finding animals we would not have seen if we were not with an expert to spot them! Farly really is an expert and took great care of us. What a day!

Worthwhile Kayaking Experience - Kayaking with Farly was truly an experience. Initially, I did not think much of the whole activity, but by the end of it, Farly made the entire experience worthwhile and a must-do for those who wish for an outdoor activity in Langkawi.
Farly kept the group small, so it made the entire experience very comfortable and fun. We got to see all sorts of fascinating creatures and enjoyed the breathtaking views of the mangrove swamp.
Farly also made it easy for first-time kayakers and he always made sure we were alright. If you're trying to decide on which kayak operators to choose, look no further, just go with Farly...

Awesome activity for those, who like nature - We had an awesome guide, who told us a lot about nearby flora and founa and some jokes 😁
During our tour guide was doing photos of us and shared them with us after all.

Best experience in Langkawi - I participated alone, but since the tour was held in small groups, I was close to the other participants, and our Japanese-speaking guide Farly was very friendly and explained difficult words in Japanese that were hard to understand in English. We kayaked along a 6-kilometer course, which I think was quite tiring, especially for women, but the experience of going through mangrove forests that we don't usually see and the sense of accomplishment after reaching the goal made it an unforgettable memory.
Thank you so much❤️

Fantastic Experience - The entire tour was fantastic from start to finish! Farley and his team were so friendly and helpful and made the whole experience unforgettable. We were a large group of 9 people with different abilities and Farley accommodated us all. We got to see a whole different side of the mangroves on the kayaks so I highly recommend this tour with Xtreme Langkawi!
