One of the not to be missed attraction in Langkawi ought to be the SkyBridge, but before one can reach the Bridge, they need to take the cable car up, which is addressed as SkyCab (do check their official website here for their differing operating hours).
SkyCab is known as the steepest cable car ride on earth and takes visitors up 708m above sea level which will lead visitors to Langkawi's second highest peak of Mt. Machinchang. For those who are phobia of height, this cable car ride can be quite a scary one, but if you can put aside the fear, the view on the way up is simply remarkable, where the ride takes one over the beautiful jungle and rock that aged over 550 million years.
The ride starts from The Base Station, located at the foothill of Machinchang mountain. It will stop at Middle Station where one can alight to their viewing platform. Plenty of photo opportunities here, of the panoramic view of the main island. Upon taking your time here, go back to the same station to board the SkyCab to the Top Station.
Fees : RM45 adult or RM32 for child (non Malaysians), or RM30 adult or RM22 for child (MyKad is required)

From the Top Station, one will need to purchase ticket to get to the SkyBridge. Fee : RM5 (where you need to walk through the jungle, which takes approximately 10 mins), or RM15 (where you use the SkyGlide).

The Skybridge measures at 125m in length, and it ranks among the world's longest curve suspension bridge. This is surely a highly spectacular bridge, and also, for those fear of height, I have heard stories of jelly legs. Take a deep breath, and admire the panoramic view as much as possible.
