Malaysia tailor made holiday
A wonderful 12 night tour of Malaysia which takes in the wonders of the 130 million year old Taman Negara rainforest which is one of the world’s most complex and rich ecosystems along with the excitement of Kuala Lumpur and the serene beaches of Langkawi. Kuala Lumpur is an exciting mix of the ultra modern combined with the history and splendour of the temples and mosques and is a fabulous start to any Malaysia trip. Here you can sit side by side with the locals in street-side hawker stalls serving fabulous Malaysian food or explore the high-rise shopping malls for all the must have gadgets. Whilst here you should also fit in a visit to Chinatown, the area that never sleeps, and of course climb the Petronas Towers for a stunning view of the city below. Taman Negara’s National Park vegetation communities range from the humid tropical rainforest of the lowlands, to the montane oak and ericaceous forests of a higher elevation offering guests the chance to not only view a vast array of flora and fauna but the animals which inhabit the region too. This may include tapirs, wild pigs, tigers, mouse deers and a host of birdlife. The region is in actual fact a birdwatchers paradise, with about 300 species of birdlife recorded in the Park. Aside from visiting the National Park, you will also spend time on the Island of Langkawi, famous for its beaches and islands being some of the most beautiful in Southeast Asia. Langkawi consists of a group of around 100 islands, and while most are uninhabited, a few allow visitors. Here you will be staying in a hotel with a very impressive legacy of environmental principles actively being followed. This tour is with an English-speaking guide. The knowledgeable local guides will accompany you for the duration of your trip. This vacation can be tailor-made to create a unique vacation for your individual requirements by travel experts with intimate knowledge of the destination.
