We came to Langkawi in June, and had already put Dev's Tours on our itinerary for the trip from the reviews on Trip Advisor.

I have to say that it was one of the highlights of our trip! We took the mangrove tour and the Berjaya nature walk with Dev. The tours were wonderful and we saw a broad spectrum of wildlife.

Dev's passion for nature and wildlife was exuberant and reflected on all of us! Dev has great charisma and is an unforgettable character! He guides the tours personally and he is very well informed. He makes everyone feel welcome and treats everyone as an individual.

My 4 year old son adores him and asked him so many questions which Dev would take the time to answer.

I strongly recommend Dev's tours if you really have an appreciation for nature and wildlife.

We are recreational Birder's in the US so when we arrived on Langkawi we booked a tour with Dev to bird the rain forest and rice paddy areas. We had a great extended morning with Dev who was completely knowledgable and enthusiastic. I think he enjoyed the trip as much as we did as we found 42 species of birds to include 3 types of hornbills in the forest. Dev speaks perfect english, if you need that, and we found out that a little rain is a good thing as it brings the birds out into the open for better viewing. This tour was a highlight of our two week vacation.

We were in Langkawi in April for 2 weeks.

Through the reccomendations here on Trip Advisor, we booked Dev's tours for the mangrove kayaking and the rainforest trek.
The rainforest trek was really interesting, and hot work and well reccomended.
But the kayaking is truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life. We spent 4-5 hours out on the water, literally on our own. Our party was a group of five and we never passed a single tourist on our route around where the boats simply cannot reach.

Experience of a lifetime, and with the best guides imaginable. They even come and pick you up from your hotel even if youre the other side of the island.

You may get offered cheaper tours, but forget them, Dev is the way to go.

Highly recommended! The guide was really pleasant, knowledgeable and patient. Dev made the effort to welcome us personally. Thoughtful gestures, like providing us with muffins to snack on, as well as a side stop to bathe in the cool waters, plus the company's eco-friendly stance, like not feeding the kites on the tourist trail, are very much appreciated. Even the boat pilots and van drivers seemed well-trained!

We came away with a positive feeling that Devs Tours really does care about the environment and is not just milking it for commercial reasons. The scenery is stunning and wildlife is abundant. A great experience - don't miss it!
