SkyCab, Langkawi – 24 September 2016

From our resort at Pantai Cenang to SkyCab Langkawi, it took us approximately 30 minutes to drive.

Upon arrival, there is premier and normal parking. We decided to park at the normal parking as it was just a short distance to walk to the entrance. The price for normal parking was only RM5.00 for our few hours stay there.

Before reaching the ticket counter for the SkyCab, you will go through all the shops selling local handicrafts, t-shirts, souveniers, toys and drinks.

At the ticket counter, there will be guides rendering their help to guide you as to which combo package is suitable for your family. After going through all the combo packages with the guide, we decided on the basic package. Here are the details of the package and other packages:

If you choose Combo E, you will spent almost the whole day! That’s not what we wanted. 

If you later decide that you would like to do other activities, you can still purchase the respective tickets at the entrance of the activities. The individual tickets will cost just a few ringgits more. But if you buy the Combo E, you are stuck and will have to go through each and every activity and queue up for it.

For the basic package, we got to visit the SkyDome and SkyCab. We were more interested in SkyBridge, for which we were told that, you can only purchase the tickets once you reach at the top. Our basic package did not include SkyBridge.

SkyDome. Not entertaining at all but you have to go through this before you board your SkyCab

SkyBridge

SkyGlide 

After we have completed the above, we walked around the park and we were not very keen on other activities. We had snacks there for which the price was not cheap.

Check out the pricing for the other activities:

In my view, it’s worth to settle for the basic package. Check out the pictures below:-

Check out the queue. This is still alright

Tips:

1. Try to go there early, around opening time. 
2. Upon buying your tickets, go straight for the SkyDome and SkyCab. The queue may be very long during peak season and weekends.
3. Once you are on the Base Station for your SkyCab ride, take the SkyCab and go all the way up to the Top Station. Do not stop at the Middle Station as you may have difficulty in getting into the next SkyCab. Usually, tourists will go all the way up so the SkyCab that arrives at Middle Station will be full.
4. It’s worth going for the SkyBridge. If you don’t like to walk down from the Top Station to the SkyBridge, it would be better to take the SkyGlide. Again, there will be queue as there is only one SkyGlide to bring you up and down. 
5. Once you are done with SkyCab and SkyBridge, go down to the Base Station and decide whether you would like to do the rest of the rides and museums. 
6. Remember to bring your hat and umbrella, as it's very hot. Please apply sun cream if you don't want to get burned.
