Meet the wildlife and enjoy mouthwatering cuisine on a journey from the island of Penang to Kuala Lumpur and Borneo, visiting vibrant cities, historic colonial towns and beautiful natural landscapes along the way.
It may sound like a bit of a cliche, but the country really is an incredible cultural melting pot! Every major city is a fascinating amalgam of Chinese, Indians and Malays, all with their own histories, architecture, traditions and cuisines.
Beginning in George Town, where we get a glimpse into 18th-century colonial life, we travel through the scenic Malaysian countryside to Taiping Town and Ipoh, a former tin mining town set in the steep limestone hills of the west coast Peninsula of Malaysia. In Kuala Lumpur - one of Asia's fastest-growing cities - we'll experience a fascinating fusion of old and new, with its historic street markets and towering skyscrapers. Then it's off to Borneo, Malaysia's shining verdant crown jewel, where we'll meet the local wildlife - orangutans and sun bears - and spend time relaxing on the beach.
This holiday is ideal for explorers looking for a little bit of everything - cities, natural forests, beaches, history, culture and, of course, delicious food.
