A Malaysian holiday wouldn’t be complete without delicious food and gorgeous beaches. And Penang has both in spades. An island just eight miles wide and 16 miles long, the food scene here is on fire, with hawker food carts, fine dining and everything in between. Beach-wise, Langkawi takes the crown with its powdery sands and coral reefs brimming with tropical fish. It’s the perfect place to finish your Malaysian retreat. Relax under a palm tree with a good book, or don your hiking boots and explore the island’s rainforest interior.

Malaysia is so versatile you can enjoy a multi centre holiday within its borders – and we’d recommend visiting two, if not three, destinations on your trip. The capital of Kuala Lumpur is an ideal starting point: scale soaring skyscrapers, visit traditional temples and barter in bustling markets. Next, fly or drive four hours to Penang, home to the colourful UNESCO-listed George Town and an incredible street food scene. Finish your trip with a relaxing stay in Langkawi - an exotic island encircled by white sand beaches and turquoise waters brimming with tropical marine life.

We recommend 2 nights in 4 A Pavilion Hotel in Kuala Lumpur 3 nights in 4 A Lone Pine Hotel in Penang 7 nights in 4 A Berjaya Langkawi Beach Resort Hotel

CITY NATURE TWIN-CENTRE

CITY & JUNGLE ADVENTURE

Kuala Lumpur | Borneo

If you’re looking for a trip that combines an urban jungle with a wild one, look no further than a twin-centre holiday combining Kuala Lumpur and Borneo. Kick things off in Malaysia’s bustling capital, where ancient architecture and glittering skyscrapers sit side by side. Stand in the shadows of the famous Petronas Twin Towers and browse vibrant street food markets. Next, leave the city buzz behind and make tracks for Sabah in Borneo. Delve deep into the plentiful national parks in search of wild orangutans, hike Mount Kinabalu, or simply chill on the pristine beaches.
