Welcome to Malaysia! You’ll be met at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and transferred to your luxurious boutique hotel in a quiet part of town. We’ve planned nothing for you so that you can settle in, go for a walk, or simply relax poolside.
Today you’ll be whisked around Kuala Lumpur to see its highlights, old and new. See the Petronas Towers, King’s Palace, National Mosque, and other iconic sites of the city. In the afternoon, visit the Batu Caves with its 140-foot tall statue of Hindu God Lord Murugan and more than a handful of monkeys to escort you.
Head south for the day to the port city of Melaka, a World Heritage Site with more than 600 years of history to explore. Your guide will walk with you through the city and share insight into the nation’s multicultural history. There’s time to visit antique and art galleries before returning to Kuala Lumpur for the evening.
This morning your driver will take you to the airport for your short flight to Penang. In the afternoon, your guide will show you around some of George Town’s highlights including the Khoo Kongsi clan house, harmony street with its Anglican church, Taoist and Hindu temples, and Muslim mosque.
See the beauty of Penang island with its idyllic fishing villages, rice paddies, and quiet coasts. Your morning tour will take you around the island, giving you the afternoon to relax and walk around George Town as you wish.
The transfer to Pangkor Laut will be a few hours today as your driver takes you south and a boat ferries you across to this luxurious, exclusive resort. Your Hill Villa is set amongst the ancient rainforest but the beach is only a short stroll away.
These days are yours to relax and enjoy the amenities of the resort. Consider a luxurious spa treatment, sunset sail, a guided jungle walk, or simply sit back by the pool or on the beach. Perhaps take a moment to start thinking about your next holiday.
Today you’ll head back across the water and meet your driver for the trip to Kuala Lumpur International Airport where you can catch your flight home. Safe travels!
