Malaysia is one of the famous Southeast Asian destination for trade and tourism. My first international vacation was to this magnificent country.
Malaysian Visa: Since this was a package tour, our tour agent had got us the stamped Malaysian Visa (1 year, multiple entries) at INR 4100 per person.
Flights: We had opted for Air Asia from Bangalore to Kuala Lumpur and from Kuala Lumpur to Langkawi. There are various other flights like tiger air, Jet airways etc that fly to Kaula Lumpur on an everyday basis.
Accommodation: We chose our accommodation near the little India area as we found it convenient to visit the local attractions and also for the availability of the Indian food there.
Places to visit in and around Kaula Lumpur:
Genting Highlands: This is 45 minutes away from the KL city. Genting highlands are an integrated resort with casinos, theme parks, hotels perched on top of Gunung Ulu Kali Mountain. One can reach the resorts by the cable car. Genting cable car is the world’s fastest mono cable car. The view in the cable car is just awesome. We visited the snow world there and had a great time. Also, one can explore around and enjoy various entertainment opportunities the place has to offer.
