  • The resort advertises a lot of things to do on the island - climb the mountain, temples, airport, beaches etc. for a price of 40RM for 4 persons minimum. But in reality all the driver does is to drive you down to the main street and leave you there - so better just hire the taxi to the main street - costs 5RM per person.

    Atleast make it sure to the driver you have taken the island tour and show him the brochure and tell him you want all of these things - but the drivers hardly understand english

    rent a motorbike if you are a bit adventurous - the traffic is less so it is safer -

    DO NOT use the internet service from the beach cafe, they charge 3x more than the town service charge. Though the distance is about 10mins drive, it's fun to explore the town at the same time.
    And the speed is DAMN slow compare to the town services, GET IT??

    If you happen to be on the island tour provided by your van/taxi driver, he will drop you off at Pasir Bogak Beach for about half an hour and tell you that "he has to get some pertrol". Conveniently, he has a "friend" at the beach who also offers a boat trip around the infamous Pangkor Laut island resort where famous international celebrities vacation

    I didn't go on the boat trip because I've done it before so I was stuck on the beach for that time, which was unknowingly included in my 2-hour island tour.

    Just enjoy the beach even though there are no big shops or restaurants to kill your time on

  • We order some fried noodles for lunch in one of the hawker restaurant in Pangkor town. When, we asked for the bill, we are surprised that our 7 plates of noodles that cost around Rm4 each, cost a total of RM40+? We ask the boss how he calculate. He calculate in front of us and then he apologies that he has counted wrongly. (I noticed that he added additional Rm9 to out bill out of the blue).

    Please calculate your bill first before you pay.
