Hello guys, welcome to the video where are we going to talk about how expensive
is Langkawi so without further ado let's jump into the video with Malaysia intro
welcome to Love Live Discover Malaysia series Malaysia is a beautiful tropical
country with empty beaches lush jungles and great hospitality in this Malaysia
travel guide series we will visit islands feed animals swim in waterfalls
and explore street art along the way I will even get a knife massage if you
want to see all these and more make sure you subscribe now and ring the bell to
discover all about Malaysia for free langkawi is a beautiful tropical island
in Malaysia it offers a great holiday opportunity and it's not overcrowded yet
as you planning to visit Langkawi. it's important to know how expensive it is so
you can arrange your budget accordingly that's why I decided to create this how
expensive is langkawi video to share all the information that you will need first
cost we will talk about is about arriving to Langkawi island keep in mind I
have a special video about how to arrive to Langkawi which talks about different
options that you have if you want to check it out I will link it here but the
easiest option to arrive to Langkawi will be by flying to fly it from Kuala Lumpur
to Langkawi you're looking around 15 to 20 euros and if you want to check it out
yourself I will put a link in the description so you can check out the
prices from Kiwi.com which is my personal favourite website when it comes
to become flight just keep in mind this is an affiliate link so if you book your
flight from here you will not pay anything extra but I will earn little
commission from it once you arrive to Langkawi island obviously we'll need to
arrange a transportation to your hotel there is no bus service in Langkawi
Island and the taxi drivers will probably try to overcharge you to be
more specific for us we arrived to Langkawi by ferry and the port was on the other
side of the island to where we were staying
we were staying in Pantai Cenang and for this journey the taxi
drivers tried to pressure us to 30-35 Ringgit and they said this is the best
price they can do but I find a way to connect to internet and when I check Grab
taxi which is similar company like uber I say the price was 25 MYR so
I'll go back to the taxi drivers negotiated and agreed on 25 Ringgit but
keep in mind if you fly into Langkawi the airport is much more closer to
Pantai Cenang which is the most popular area to stay in Langkawi but if you stay in
another area the price will directly depend on the distance from starting
point and the end destination when it comes to accommodation as an average we
can find a decent place for 10-15 euros and if you are a backpacker like us
always there are cheaper options and if you want to come here for honeymoon or
you have a good budget you want to do a better place
oh is it there are luxury of places that you can find but general average I can
say that for 10-15 years we can find a decent place to enjoy your holiday food
cost most depends on the location the type of the restaurant and all this kind
of information but as a general I can put average 15 malaysian ringgit for a
decent restaurant and if you want to eat from streets obviously the price will be
much more cheaper so the average price is around 5 malaysian ringgit for street
food langkawi is a duty-free island so the alcohol products will be cheaper
compared to the mainland to give you an example the beer will cost you around
3/4 malaysian ringgit from the shop or 7-8 malaysian ringgit from the
restaurant and also if you're planning to live here day to day products are a
bit more expensive compared to the mainland as they had to bring the
products by ferry to the island so it adds onto the cost i will not get into
this too deep because only for the people who's gonna live here as a
holiday maker this is such a small difference
they will not affect your holiday as i mentioned before there is no bus service
in Langkawi Island so the best way to get around is to rent a scooter if you
have a driving licence and if you trust your skills then definitely rent a
scooter and the price for the scooter when I went they said 30 malaysian
ringgit but after negotiating a little bit for
the second day I can manage to get it for 25 Ringgit
and with this you can easily reach anywhere in the island when it comes to
attractions in Langkawi Island what I find out is the most popular attractions
are generally pretty expensive at least for me as a backpacker
I find them a bit expensive maybe for you as a holiday maker will not be that
expensive but there are free and cheap things to do as well if you want to find
out more information about that I specifically went out one day in one
Langkawi and record a vlog to share with you guys the cheap and free things
to do so I will attach it here for you if you want to check that out to give
you an example about tour prices when I was there we went for island hopping tour
this was a cheap tour 30 Malaysian Ringgit and with this we visited few
islands we went to see the Eagles unfortunately the time was so short so
every place we go they were rushing us we didn't have enough time to enjoy but
the price 30 Malaysian Ringgit was decent and I think the main reason why
it was so cheap was because it was off time it wasn't high season as it gets
the high season I think the price will rise a little bit more as well if you
want to find out more information about this tour I will attach my vlog here so
you can check that out I hope you find all the information that you're looking
for if you have any more questions write in the comment and our response as soon
as possible and as you're watching this video I assume you're interested with
Malaysia so I'll put my Malaysian playlist here check it out I'm sure
you'll find interesting and entertaining videos to watch so hope to see you next
