About this experience

In the early hours of the evening, the Langkawi nature nightlife begins to awaken from its slumber. Starting from the base of the enigmatic Gunung Raya, our guide will greet you and after a short briefing, we proceed with a drive to the summit of the highest peak on this beautiful island. As we drive up a road that overlooks the rainforest canopy, keep a lookout as our guide will point out local wildlife such as monkeys, squirrels and energetic birds such as the hornbills, flowerpeckers and sunbirds.
