Highlights of Malaysia

Skip the wait for a taxi, and board your private transfer who will take you to your hotel for the next few nights.

Welcome to Malaysia, and its lively capital, Kuala Lumpur, where the skyline is dominated by the twin Petronas towers. While you’re here you’ll take a trip to the Batu Caves, one of the most important Hindu sights in the country, as well as exploring the suburbs with your guide. Later on, you’ll get the chance to sample some of the world’s best street food on a Street Eats tour, plus spend a day in the historic port city of Malacca, filled with museums, souvenir shops and restaurants dishing up tasty local Nyonya dishes.

Step beyond Kuala Lumpur’s soaring skyline and into one of Malaysia’s most iconic spiritual landmarks on your day tour to the Batu Caves. Just a short drive from the city, you’ll discover this spectacular limestone hill and its colourful temples, crowned by the towering golden statue of Lord Murugan. Climb the vibrant staircase to the main cavern, where your guide will share stories of Hindu tradition and local legends. As you explore the surrounding suburbs, you’ll get a glimpse of daily life beyond the city centre, from lively markets to family-run workshops. It’s a perfect blend of culture, history, and gentle adventure - an inspiring addition to your Malaysian journey.

Step back in time as you journey from Kuala Lumpur to the historic port city of Malacca, a place shaped by centuries of traders, sailors and storytellers. Your day begins with a leisurely 40‑minute cruise along the Malacca canal, where colourful riverside homes and old warehouses reveal the city’s rich past from the water. With your guide, wander the atmospheric streets around St. Paul Hill, stroll Harmony Street where temples, churches and mosques sit side by side, and explore the traditional wooden village of Kampung Morten, lovingly preserved as a living museum.You’ll round off your adventure at the oldest bar in Malacca—a character‑filled hideaway that once served Japanese soldiers during the Second World War and now offers a memorable spot to reflect on the day.

Leaving Kuala Lumpur behind, you’ll head up into the cool tea plantations of the Cameron Highlands, where you’ll stop in Tapah. Along the way, stop off at jungle streams and waterfalls, and explore the rose gardens, vegetable farms and tea plantations in the area. The next day, you’ll have some free time – perhaps try a strawberry or two at the strawberry farm, or sample the honey at a honey farm, or simply enjoy the pretty views. On your final day, you’ll be transferred to Penang.

Welcome to Penang, the vibrant and sophisticated ‘Pearl of the Orient’ and a fascinating fusion of East and West. Wander through the World Heritage-listed capital of George Town to see the merging of past and present cultural influences in the city’s architecture, festivals and restaurants. From night markets and shopping strips to some of Malaysia’s most beautiful gardens and beaches, Penang will have you as busy or as chilled as you fancy.
