Malaysia Holiday

Malaysia is a melting pot of cultures that create its colourful and atmospheric buzz. The capital, Kuala Lumpur, is a fascinating mix of rainforest and modern skyscrapers. Here, shopping is a delight, as is sampling the stunning street food, a fabulous blend of delicious Chinese, Indian and Malaysian dishes.  

Outside the city, you’ll find impressive cave temples and Hindu shrines. Further afield, there are magnificent coral reefs (Malaysia’s dive sites are legendary and among the best in the world), tropical jungles, national parks and wildlife reserves to explore.  

Malaysia’s beautiful islands are also waiting to be discovered… There’s Langkawi, a paradise for lazing on palm-fringed beaches and exploring a magical underwater world. Enchanting Penang is home to idyllic fishing villages, numerous fruit, clove and nutmeg plantations and the infamous Snake Temple, where pit vipers laze on altars. Its capital, Georgetown, offers many sights, including the Goddess of Mercy Temple and Fort Cornwallis. And if you’re keen for adventure, head to Kota Kinabulu on the island of Borneo, the ideal base from which to go white-water rafting, deep-sea fishing, sea kayaking, snorkelling or mountain climbing.
