Your local English-speaking driver guide will meet you at Kuala Lumpur Airport and take you to the hotel in a comfortable vehicle. The rest of the day is yours to take a break or become familiar with our capital city on your own.

This morning, you will visit the Petronas Twin Towers. With 88 floors, it is the tallest twin towers in the world. We 'll head to the Sky Bridge on 41F and the Observation Deck on 86F to enjoy the panoramic views of Kuala Lumpur.

Next, driving past Kuala Lumpur Tower and the Jamek Mosque, we will arrive at Independence Square, also called Dataran Merdeka, valued in Malaysian history.

At noon, stop at Petaling Street, widely known as Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown, one of the earliest streets in Kuala Lumpur, which has existed for about 140 years.

In the afternoon, visit the National Mosque, the largest mosque in the country, which can accommodate 8,000 people at once. Your driver guide will provide a brief overview of the attraction on the way, allowing you to explore freely.

Then, we will drive out of the city to visit King’s Palace (Istana Negara), where the Malaysian monarch lives. Although the palace is not open to the public, you can look through the gate railings to see its magnificent appearance and take photos with the cavalryman.

Ultimately, we will drive southeast for about two hours to Malacca and directly escort you to the hotel. Have a good rest, and look forward to the Malacca tour tomorrow.

Visit Cheng Hoon Teng Temple, which is considered the oldest Chinese temple in the area.

Then come to the Stadthuys (Dutch Red Square). The small red church is a great backdrop for photography.

Walk for about five minutes from the path behind the Dutch Red Square to St. Paul’s Church atop St. Paul’s Hill. The ruins that survived the shelling now remain only mottled walls, giving you a sense of heaviness.

Going down the hill, we will pass through a Portuguese fortress called A Famosa, the earliest European building in Asia. Now, only an ancient city gate stands.

Then, we will arrive at Jonker Street, the lively heart of Malacca. Moving along with the crowd on the street, you will see a dizzying array of food stalls and various stores.

Leave Jonker Street and move on to Taman Rempah Jetty to take a Malacca River Cruise. During the around 40-minute cruise, you can appreciate traditional Tong Lau – a kind of veranda-style building popular in southeastern Asia in the 1960s – on the banks of the Malacca River under sunshine and colorful murals on the walls, reflected in the calm river water along with the surrounding green leaves, flowers, and buildings.

Finally, we will drive for about two hours back to Kuala Lumpur and send you to the hotel.

Your driver guide will pick you up from the hotel and take you to the airport for an early flight around 1 hour to Penang. Upon arrival, a local driver guide in Penang will pick you up and accompany you to the hotel in George Town, which is about half an hour away. The rest of the day is yours to do as you please. * Tip: If you are into murals, don’t forget to take a “Marking George Town” map at the airport baggage area. The map marks over 20 murals and 52 iron paintings with specific locations and introductions, and you can look for these murals during your free time in Penang.

Today, we will first have a car tour around George Town, passing by several famed landmarks, including Fort Cornwallis, Queen Victoria Memorial Clock Tower, Clan Jetty, and Street of Harmony. Penang’s deep cultural and religious integration is reflected in every aspect of architecture, cuisine, and lifestyle in George Town, among which various architecture is most apparent – embracing Chinese guild hall style, British Victorian style, and Islamic religious style combined with local elements. If you are interested in a certain scenic spot, you can ask the driver to stop at any time to take photos or visit it up close.

Continue driving to Wat Chayamangkalaram Temple, a Thai-style temple built in 1845, worshipping the world’s third-largest indoor reclining Buddha statue of 33 meters long.

Then, you will take the funicular train up Penang Hill, passing through picturesque farms and forests. When riding the train, it is recommended to sit at the front when going up and at the back when going down, which is the best place to take photos. Arriving at the highest spot in Penang, you will be mesmerized by the commanding view of Penang Island. After going down Penang Hill, today’s tour is over, and we will send you back to the hotel.

It’s time to say goodbye to your best Malaysia tour, and your driver guide will escort you to Penang Airport, which will take about 30 minutes. The security check and customs clearance are relatively slow, so you’d better allow 3 hours and arrange your free time according to the flight. Wish you a happy journey! During the past days, you have felt Malaysia’s human culture quintessence, but Malaysia is much more than that. The native flora and fauna of Borneo’s tropical rainforest, such as Malayan tapirs, Borneo pygmy elephants, and Rafflesia, are all worth seeing. Kuching – the cat city – is also unmissable if you are a cat lover. If these attractions intrigue you, please contact our travel consultants to extend your trip with a customized route!
