How much does the ferry from Langkawi to Kuala Kedah cost?

The cost of the ferry from Langkawi to Kuala Kedah depends on the ferry company, the type of vessel, the date, whether you travel as a foot passenger or with a car, and the seat or cabin you choose. A conventional ferry is cheaper than a high-speed one; a summer Saturday costs more than a weekday in May; a car adds a vehicle fare; a cabin on an overnight sailing adds more. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price: we verify the live fares for your exact date and send the real cost through WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

What we include in the price we send: the ticket for each passenger, any reserved seat or cabin you asked for, port taxes, and our service - checking the timetable, booking, sending the e-ticket and answering questions before and during the crossing.
