Pahang to Penang Destination Reviews

S
Yeah really good experience. Details all add up. You go to the immigration office in Langkawi 2 hours before, hand them your passport and fill out your immigration forums. Then you wait till 30 minutes before departure. The boat is big and spacious, didn’t feel the ocean much. Once you arrive at Koh lipe, you’ll get on a small boat for the last 2 minutes in, leave your baggage behind and do the pass control in Koh lipe as well, 200bht entry for everyone, but there is a atm there. Recommend sitting close to the doors/entry, so you get of early… as the que on land gets long. The staff was great all the way

It was a public holiday so we were stuck in really bad traffic, so it took 2h more than expected, other than that it was fine and I know it's a situation out of their control.

The journey was delayed on the way up due to Friday traffic and the bus only stopped once for a bathroom break so was struggling by the end of the journey. Apart from that it was an easy and cheap way to travel
