Stunning islands of Malaysia

Upon arrival at Kuala Lumpur International Airport, you will be welcomed by our local representative, and the driver will be waiting to transport you to the first hotel of this journey. The RuMa Hotel is located in the vibrant heart of the capital, but in this serene oasis, you will especially enjoy the harmonious ambiance. RuMa means ‘home’ in Malay, and as soon as you step over the threshold, you will feel the atmosphere becoming your own.

Just a stone's throw from the futuristic Twin Towers, the interior of The RuMa contrasts with decor of elegant rattan furniture and warm wooden details. Stylish and chic rooms with contemporary charm guarantee a comfortable stay.

This day is dedicated to uncovering the secrets of Kuala Lumpur's culinary treasure trove. An experienced guide will take you through the vibrant streets of the city, where the aroma of freshly prepared dishes and the lively atmosphere of the local markets will stimulate your senses. You will discover the hidden gems of the Malaysian street food scene while enjoying authentic flavors that reflect the rich multicultural makeup of the capital.

You have a free day to plan your own itinerary. Stroll from the hotel to the KLCC shopping mall, or explore the hustle and bustle along Bukit Bintang. You can seek tranquility in the botanical gardens, or enjoy the skyline from the bridge that connects the two towers of the Petronas Towers.

If you prefer to indulge in culture, a day trip to the historic Malacca is highly recommended. This charming city, with its Dutch history, also offers a very unique cuisine: the Peranakan kitchen.

If you wish to experience a special dinner, we can make a reservation for you at the revolving restaurant of the KL Tower. The ATAS restaurant at The Ruma also offers surprising culinary delights in a unique setting.

This morning, you will enjoy a final breakfast at The RuMa, before checking out. A driver is ready to take you to Lumut Harbour, which will take approximately 3 hours and fifteen minutes. Upon arrival, some formalities will be handled, after which you will board a speedboat to the magnificent Pangkor Laut. The boat ride lasts about fifteen minutes.

Pangkor Laut Resort is nestled within an ancient rainforest, on a lush private island fringed by white sandy beaches and clear waters. This tropical paradise features rolling hills with towering rainforest giants that rise above the jungle, providing a shaded environment. The elegant villas adorn various parts of the resort, built against the hills or proudly on stilts along the coast above the water.

After arrival, you can explore the wondrous island and relax comfortably on the beach or in the award-winning spa.

You have two full days free to enjoy the sun, sea, beach, and the excellent facilities of Pangkor Laut Resort. If you enjoy spa treatments and massages, the Spa Village is truly the perfect place for you. Or take a relaxing stroll along the soft sands of the iconic Emerald Bay. Pangkor Laut Resort offers a fantastic selection of restaurants, where you can choose between local specialties and culinary delights.

The resort offers the opportunity to join a fun island-hopping excursion. Sail past tiny bounty islands, take a refreshing dip in the water, and enjoy a picnic basket filled with delicious treats.

After breakfast, you will check out and sail back to the mainland, followed by the drive to Penang. This takes approximately three hours, depending on traffic. This 'Pearl of the Orient' is connected to the mainland by a land bridge. This morning, you leave a rustic idyll behind, and this afternoon, you will drive into the lively Georgetown, the historic capital of Penang island.

Georgetown is a UNESCO World Heritage site, a fascinating city where tradition and modernity go hand in hand. The bustling streets with well-preserved colonial architecture offer a vibrant palette of cultures, history, and local cuisines. In the heart of this cultural richness lies the beautiful boutique hotel Seven Terraces, a carefully restored complex of terrace houses. The suites are true masterpieces with antique furniture and 19th-century Chinese décor. Combine this with contemporary comfort, a serene courtyard, and a lovely swimming pool, and you have the perfect home base for your exploration of the city.

An incredibly enjoyable way to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Georgetown and not miss out on all the beauty is by following the street art route. Various artists have created a colorful parcours of dynamic artworks depicting local and historic scenes. Each mural tells its own story, intertwined with the historical context of the street or neighborhood. Be inspired and discover the vibrant melting pot of cultures and street food that the city has to offer. You will probably not be the only one walking the route, but this celebration of artistic talent is so unmistakably part of the city that you will happily go along with the flow.

The city is also bursting with charming coffee shops and terraces. Whether in between or afterwards, there is always the opportunity to take a break and enjoy the scents and sounds around you, with a refreshing drink in hand.

If you wish to see more of the rest of the island, a bike ride through the rural southwest of the island is a delightful experience. You cycle past villages and plantations, meet local residents, and taste the authentic atmosphere.

You enjoy your final breakfast in the cultural capital of Malaysia, after which you will head to the airport in the morning for the short flight to Langkawi. This breathtaking archipelago of 99 islands is a paradise of unparalleled natural beauty, with lush inland forests and golden sandy beaches along the coast.
