the Langkawi Village<\/h3>\n

Renee Osman, Sales Manager at Diethelm Travel Malaysia, shares how visitors to the tropical island of Langkawi can experience its lush beauty through a unique bicycle tour.<\/em><\/p>\n

On my recent vacation to the mystical island of Langkawi, I wanted to do something different. Coming from a travel agent such as myself, sometimes it\u2019s nearly impossible to be surprised by new travel experiences, but I wanted to make my trip to Langkawi memorable and experience a different side of my country that I had not seen before. Aside from swimming and cold cocktails by the beach, I wished to discover the natural beauty of this island up close\u2026so I booked myself Diethelm Travel\u2019s very own product, the Langkawi Village Bicycle Tour.<\/p>\n

This excursion gave me the possibility to uncover the beauty of Langkawi by fully immersing myself in it. Instead of sitting still in a cold van, I was given a mountain bike, safety helmet, bottle of mineral water and safety briefing on how the tour would go.<\/p>\n

With close friends and our passionate and experienced nature guide, we journeyed for three hours on a 15-kilometre bicycle ride through river banks, paddy fields, a Malay village and verdant forests. We also went through local orchards and tasted the sweetness of papayas straight from the tree, tartness of ripe tamarind and refreshing coolness of sipping a fresh coconut as we chatted with a local by her simple, yet comfortable, veranda in a typical Malay wooden house.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I experienced Langkawi from a totally different point of view and enjoyed an intimate way to get a glimpse of the island\u2019s daily life and beautiful natural scenery!<\/p>\n

Wondering what else to do in Langkawi?<\/p>\n
