2 DAYS FROM KUALA LUMPUR TO PENANG
Day 1 (Sunday) : Kuala Lumpur/ Cameron Highlands (L)
Heading North into the state of Perak, your journey to Cameron Highlands (the centre of Malaysia tea production) takes you to an altitude of 1500-1800 metres above sea level. Vegetables grow in profusion and flowers bloom, everywhere in the cool weather, which can drop to 12 degrees Celsius. You have the opportunity to see the “Orang Asli” (Malaysian Aboriginal) complete with their blowpipes. Lunch at a restaurant in the highlands.
Day 2 (Monday) : Cameron Highlands/ Penang (B,L)
Your day begins with a pleasant drive downhill and northwards to Ipoh - the city of millionaires’, which made its fortune from the rich tin mines of Kinta Valley- the heart of tin dredging in Malaysia. Enroute, you will visit Kellies Castle built by the Scottish rubber tycoon and famous Cave Temples in Ipoh, followed by lunch at a local restaurant. Travel North to Kuala Kangsar, with its unique Ubudiah Mosque- a magnificent building with golden dome- and the Palace of the Sultan of Perak on towards the state of Penang. You will cross the Penang Bridge (spanning 13.5km-the longest bridge in Asia and third in the world) into the island of Penang. Here we bid you “Semoga Bertemu Lagi” or farewell till we meet again, after dropping off at your hotel. Post accommodation is NOT included.
