Malaysia holidays

Who are Malaysia holidays best for ?

Travellers who dream of soaking up tropical sunshine on salt-white sand beaches will be in heaven here. The golden sunshine that splashes onto the landscape makes the crystal-clear seas, forget-me-not blues skies, and soaring palm trees especially dreamy - particularly in lovely Langkawi - an archipelago off the coast of Malaysia. Beyond the beach scene, Malaysia also offers velvety rolling green hills and fast-paced cities crackling with commotion. Curious travellers will find plenty to arouse their senses in Malaysia, a land of ancient culture etched out in the likes of Penang and hedonists too will rejoice in the endless boutique hotels and gourmet suppers. And for a simpler-style trip? Malaysia holidays can also charm with simple food carts and a soft approach to the splendours of life.

What can you find in Malaysia that you won’t find elsewhere ?

Stand in the Cameron Highlands and gaze out over the sea of jade-green rice fields for a view that is so outrageously beautiful that you'll be left slack-jawed and lost for words. In other corners, the jungle brims with life, inviting you to drift downriver and watch for wildlife that comes to lap water from its banks. Go deeper into the rainforest for longer treks where croaking frogs, monkey cries, and the thunder of waterfalls are the only sounds to break the silence. Borneo boasts its beautiful stilted houses, and beyond that, Malaysia’s extraordinary archipelago weaves together a wealth of cultures – from Indian and Chinese to Malay and European.

Unique experiences in Malaysia

Spend a night at one of the gorgeous resorts on the island of Sipadan.

The daylight hours bring endless shades of blue and soft white sands while at night, the inky darkness brings a sense of mystery. Grab a flashlight and walk along the beach until you come to a small crater, wait a moment beneath the moonlight, and all of a sudden the crater erupts with life and hundreds of baby turtles make their mad dash to the ocean, straight into the foaming white of the waves. An utterly magical experience that you'll never forget.
