Tea fields in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia

Learn About Growing Tea in Cameron Highlands

Malaysia sightseeing doesn’t get much better than the Cameron Highlands, and we’ll take you on a dreamy journey through the green valleys, tea plantations and magical strawberry fields. Wander around a butterfly farm, see the painted murals of Perak Cave Temple, and stop for an afternoon tea of scones and local strawberry jam.

Admire the Sultan Abdul Samad Building

You can’t miss seeing the grand Sultan Abdul Samad Building on your Kuala Lumpur tour. We’ll take you around every fascinating feature, from the 41-metre clock tower to the lacy arches and glowing domes.

Explore the Coastal City of Malacca

Malacca is one of the most fascinating places in Malaysia! This UNESCO-listed city has a rich past having once been a vital trading port and you can find Malay, Chinese, Dutch, British and Portuguese influences. We explored the Dutch Square, pink-coloured Stadhuys and Cheng Hoon temple, then shopped for traditional handicrafts at Kampung Kuli.

Climb up the Rainbow Staircase to Batu Caves

Guarded by a monumental statue of Hindu deity Lord Murugan, the Batu Caves are a Malaysian national treasure and an unmissable day trip from Kuala Lumpur. These limestone caves harbour Hindu temples where dioramas of mythic scenes glow beneath stalactites, bats flutter in the shadows, and monkeys prey on visitors hiking the 272 stairs to Temple Cave. A must!

Discover the Street Art of Penang

Georgetown is the wonderfully artistic and multicultural main town of Penang and I absolutely fell in love with the gorgeous streets dotted with murals. It was like a treasure hunt as I wandered around spotting all the iconic artworks, and it's the perfect place to take some creative photos!

WHAT TO EAT & DRINK IN MALAYSIA

Wondering what to eat in Malaysia? We’ve got you covered with tips on where to find all the best Malaysian food, from sizzling satay to satisfying soups.

Bak Kut Tek

The name of this dish literally translates to ‘Bone Meat Tea’, but it’s so much more delicious than it sounds. Think juicy pork ribs cooked in a hot herbal broth and served with a plate of steaming rice. Sound good? Get ready to fall in love!

Satay

You may have had satay before, but Malaysian satay really takes it to another level. These delicious sticks of richly marinated chunks of satay meat (usually chicken, pork or beef) are best dipped in a spicy peanut sauce, full of wonderful tangy flavours.

Char Siu

Char siu is a Malaysian-style barbecue pork belly that will keep you coming back for more. The meat is sliced into thin pieces, soaked in a sticky, sweet and savoury sauce, then charred to tender perfection and served with steamed rice or noodles. Delicious!

WHEN IS BEST TO VISIT MALAYSIA

Malaysia is a year-round destination, with something to offer in different regions every day of the year. Here are our favourite times to visit this exciting country.

Best Time to Visit Malaysia’s Cities

Rain can come at any time in Malaysia’s tropical cities, but the driest months in Kuala Lumpur are June to August, while Penang sees the most sunshine between December and March.

Best Time to Explore the Cameron Highlands

The Cameron Highlands are wonderful all year round, but if you want to see the lush greenery in full bloom, plan your visit during the wet season from November to February.

Best Time to Hit the Beach in Malaysia

The weather is best in beach hotspots like Langkawi and Penang during the dry season from December to March, and you'll get plenty of hot, sunny days.

PACKING TIPS FOR MALAYSIA

HOW TO TRAVEL RESPONSIBLY IN MALAYSIA

Dress Modestly

Malaysia is a conservative country and it’s best to dress modestly by covering your shoulders and legs, especially when visiting a temple, mosque or any place of worship.

Don’t Feed the Monkeys

It may be tempting to share some treats with the monkeys around Batu Caves or at the beach, but it’s best not to as they can get aggressive and become reliant on human food.

Eat and Shop Local

Malaysia’s best food is found at local restaurants and we'll show you all the best spots where you can get a real taste of the country’s foodie delights and support the local communities.
