Street Delicacy

It is interesting to know for all gourmands that visiting modern restaurants in Langkawi is just a half the battle. Street cafes are the right places, where you can feel local atmosphere to the full. Trying something interesting, so-called local delicacy, keep in mind that the most popular of them is noodles with the spicy hot sauce. Most of the street tents and bars start working in the second part of the day, in the late afternoon.

Finally, there is one more advice you should know, being in Langkawi. Local transport is not well-developed. It is mostly represented by taxi. There is also a bus service here, but don’t lop upon the bus trip every day. The bus stops are not well-conducted and it is not available to catch a bus here. Saving your time (as a rule, tourists and working people have no time to waste), use rental car service without any doubts. You can also hire care, bicycle or motorbike, as you wish. The impression is that just European tourists can understand the sense of it.
