Hujung Minggu: Island Hopping, Langkawi (Pulau Dayang Bunting, Pulau Singa Besar, Pulau Beras Basah)

Plz note actual date to Langkawi was on 7-9 Aug, 2015.

Kami join Island Hopping yang disediakan kat Tubotel ni, pakej harga RM30 per pax dan kul 2.00 pm ada van amik. So kami tunggu kat café sambil menikmati the breathtaking seascape. Oh ye, kalu anda solo traveler pun, van akan pick up gak.

Kat Tubotel ni selain aku ngan member, ada dua gadis chinese yang berasal dari negara China, yang turut join island hopping ni. Island Hoping yang kami join ditawarkan oleh RBY Sea Tours (tel: 012-4767487). Menurut brother van yang pick up kami, dianggarkan akan kembali semula ke Tubotel pada pukul 5.30 pm. Brother tu asal Keramat, keje kat Langkawi cuz dia kata KL hectic, Langkawi calm. Memang la calm dah kalu daily pat nengok omputih je, gile tak best. Brother ada mention kedai chicken chop dia tapi aku tak ingat nama kedai.

Bagi pandangan aku, harga kereta sewa di Langkawi adalah standart. Kalu sesapa ada yang lagi murah, sila komen dibawah. Masa aku pegi ni, aku survey kat blog dan web, mostly stated RM80 sehari untuk viva. Kami buking kereta sewa melalui sepupu aku punya kawan and brother tu bagi harga yang sama juga iaitu RM80 sehari. Setibanya di airport, kebanyakkan kaunter kereta sewa di situ menawarkan harga RM50 sehari untuk viva. Aku pun bagitaw la kat brother kete sewa yang aku buking tu, aku pun nak RM50 sehari juga and dia agreed. Rate kereta sewa masa aku pegi dulu (tahun 2013) adalah RM170 untuk 3 hari dapat MPV kalu tak silap aku.

Kami teatime MarryBrown MamboFries before onboard

Kami sampai di airport dah malam, sebab tu buking kete sewa siap-siap. Kalu anda sampai di airport lebih awal and tak sempat nak survey kereta sewa, maka amik je kat kaunter pun ok. Oh ya, kat lobby ngan luar entrance pun banyak yang offer rental car. Tapi ingat tak kira di mana ataw dengan siapa anda amik kereta sewa, sebelum decide rental car, confirm betul-betul harga yang perlu dibayar bagi mengelakkan hidden charges dan penipuan!

Weekend Escaped: Kuala Lumpur to Kedah (Jitra-Baling-Alor Setar)

Plz note the actual date of this weekend escape was on 6-8 Jun 2014.

It has been a while i didn’t visit Kedah. I remember the last time went there was on September 2013 in Langkawi.

We took a bus from UTC KL to Jitra at 11.30 pm on 6 Jun (Friday). The journey took about 5 to 6 hours and Pancaran Matahari bus was our selection. It was double decker bus and the best thing was the bus has a plug pin in each seat except for the middle seats.

Next morning we turned up at Jitra bus station (nearby Petronas) and were picked up by our fwen. We had nasi lemak ayam berempah as our breakfast at Nasi Lemak Daun Pisang, a restaurant nearby. The visit to Kedah presently cuz we plan to attend my bestfwen wedding on 7 Jun (Saturday) at Baling. One thing I luv to share here was the journey to the wedding ceremony. It took almost 1.5 hours from Jitra to Baling. From Baling town to the bride’s house, we have to drive along a narrow path surrounded by forests and estates ambiance in the left and right side of the pathway. It was a bit creepy once we passed by rubber estate and the graveyard. Alhamdulillah, we almost reached at the wedding ceremony. We parked the car and walked through some hilly slopes. Yeyyz we arrived at the wedding ceremony eventually.

Trip to Langkawi Island, Kedah (September 2013)

Day 1st, our flight was delayed and we landed Langkawi Island behind schedule. From Langkawi airport, we took a coupon taxi to our lodging at Kuah town and it cost us RM25 per trip. I suggest for those who plan to Langkawi Island by flight, and wanna go to many places around the island, better to get a rental car/motorcycle as it is the most cost-effective cuz the chargers only RM170 for 3days, and you probably may get lower than dat price. Plus, we may choose the car type that comfy with us.

We checked in Riverra Inn at kuah town. We chose this accomodation as it calm and serene. As previous we did stayed at Chenang, and it was lively. The above photos were the countryside taken over there and our dinner, spicy seafood tomyam, salted fish kailan, turmeric chic, succulent crunchy squid and special bistik egg. The 24 hours mini mart and the restaurant just a few step from the lodging.
