Sneak peek

One trip, three worlds, endless experiences – up for an adventure that has the perfect mix? Get set for city vibes, wild nature and epic contrasts! Kick things off in Kuala Lumpur and satisfy all your senses with sizzling street food bathed in neon light, rooftops above the skyline and the scent of durian and freedom in the air. Then switch the scenery and hop over to Sumatra, where the jungle calls and the true wilderness begins! In Gunung Leuser National Park, you're in for orangutan encounters, hikes through lush greenery and the sound of the rain pattering on the leaves. In Berastagi, you'll climb up the volcanic Mt Sibayak – sulphur, mist and goosebumps included! And when you see Lake Toba glistening in the sun, you'll realise how peaceful adventure can be. Then it's on to Samosir Island to see Sumatra up close and personal. Between drumming and dancing, this is where tradition comes alive! Finally, Singapore awaits with its futuristic skyline, sea of lights and nighttime street food high in the air. Three worlds, one feeling: utterly unforgettable! So, are you in?

Trip itinerary

You've got your suitcase in hand, your sunglasses on and a big grin on your face. Today's the day! You're ready to make your long-awaited Malaysian dream come true! You can hardly wait to explore the country and experience every facet of it. Vibrant cities, green highlands and mystical jungles – it's the perfect mix for the trip of a lifetime! 'So, when will this plane finally land?'

Either you were so excited about what's to come that you woke up before you landed or you dreamt all the way to the airport. In either case, as you roll down the runway, look out the window and see the city getting closer and closer, you're definitely wide awake.
If you want to gather your strength for the adventures to come, you'll have no problem doing it here. Settle in at your accommodation in peace and quiet and recover from the journey in – a beautiful view guaranteed. And if you're still far from tired, then dive right into the city to get a taste of the buzz on the streets and find the perfect place for a bite to eat!

You've surely already seen the city's iconic landmark, the imposing Petronas Towers. But if you want to head to the top of the world's tallest twin towers and walk across the Skybridge, it's best to book a ticket in advance – they sell out fast! Be sure check out the Sri Mahamariamman Temple, too. It's one of the oldest Hindu temples in the country and bursting with colour and all kinds of details – definitely a vibe you'll want to experience! Afterwards, with the city's must-sees all checked off, it's time for the must-dos. And come evening, the street food scene bursts into life. First stop: Chinatown! On Petaling Street, you'll find dumplings, satay and even more goodies. Then it's on to the trendy Bukit Bintang district, where endless shopping opportunities and next-level snacks await. Still not tired? Then take in the views from the nearby Heli Lounge Bar – a helipad that transforms into a rooftop bar. Cheers to that!

If you just can't get enough of the urban bustle, it's high time to pay a visit to colourful Little India in the Brickfields district. Here you'll be surrounded by hip beats, the aromas of next-level street food and bright splashes of colour in the form of flowers and clothing on every corner. You won't be able to stop snapping pics! For a little breather, head to the Hindu temple and find your inner Zen. Or, if you're looking for more adventure, then a day trip to the Cameron Highlands or Taman Negara National Park is just the thing! Book an adventure outside the city and experience authentic Malaysia (optional, bookable in advance)! Then head back to the city and stroll along the Gombak River promenade in the evening's glowing light. From Merdeka Square to the Jamek Mosque, there's still so much culture and magic to discover!
