I am new to Kuala Lumpur. How do I go to Menara SSM [suruhanjaya syarikat Malaysia]from KL Sentral Station ? Is it possible to walk ? Is there a walk way for pedestrians, or is it better to take a taxi ? Thank you.
Thanks.

| Pulau Pangkor |
Posted: Sun May 13, 2012 08:16 AM UTC
We will be arriving in KL at 10am on Friday 13th July. We are flying in from Kota Kinabalu with Air Asia, so we will be at the LCCT.
We would like to go from the airport directly to Pulau Pangkor. I have found the website for Star Shuttle buses that go directly from the airport to Sitiawan but looking at the schedule, there is a bus at 9 am (too early) and the next is not until 12.30.
My question is, how long does it take, and how do we get to Puduraya Bus Station from LCCT to get an earlier bus, and if we did this, would we need to book in advance?
Also, if we waited for the Star Shuttle bus, would we need to book that one in advance?
Thank you in anticipation.

Can anyone give some ideas on what are good shopping buys in Melaka . We have one day/ night there after our trip to Ubud and KL
Just wanted to leave some spending money if there are any special items to purchase in Malaka
What's good to look for in the night markets ?
Items I'd be looking for would need to be able to fit into luggage so that rules out large pieces of furniture unfortunately
Items I would like are jewellery , small decorator pieces , fabric ???
Anything unique to Malaka of interest
Thankyou

Hi
Welcome advice on whether this is feasible, a good idea
In late August we have booked 5 nights in KL at the Westin
On researching not sure if we really need that long , 2 days shopping plenty and a day trip to Malaka will be enough I think
We have a 10 pm flight home on Day 5
My idea is to cancel our night 5 at Westin and early on Day 4 head up to Cameron Highlands , thinking hiring a driver ( would that Be very expensive? )
Stay overnight at a nice hotel for our last holiday night
We would have all day to look around then need to get to KL airport by around 8 pm
Again we would need a driver to transport us there
Am I completely off track here ?.

Hi guys
Would really appreciate some help! My husband and I are travelling in August to Malaysia, we plan to spend some time in KL and then move on to a beach resort for maybe a week. I am not sure which island to go to...we spent Christmas in Railay Beach in Thailand and it was very disappointing so I am determined to get it right this time round! While Railay was beautiful, it was very basic, treehouse style bars, sitting on mats on the ground, lots of Bob Marley posters etc..!!! Just not what we were expecting. We are looking for a beach resort with beautiful beach, lively-ish area i.e. shops, restaurants, mixture of bars with actual proper chairs, etc!! More luxury than hippy...does anyone have any recommendations...?

We will be staying in KK for several days in June/July & have given up on the overnight climb up Mount Kinabalu as it seems to need to be booked months in advance as well as sounding very pricey. Would walks in and around the Park as day trips from KK be feasible? Either busing it or possibly renting a car? Or would we be better off, does anyone think, staying over night for a night or two nearer the Park for walking & trekking? Advice welcome. J

What would be a convenient way to go to Butik Bintang from Fraser Tower, Fraser Hill, Jalan Gasing, Petaling jaya?
Is it close to a monorail station? How much would it cost by taxi?
How about renting a car? I drive well in Thailand traffic.
Also for anyone familiar with this condo, is it convenient to get food etc around the place? I love street food.

Hello - I will be travelling to Kuala Lumpur in August with my wife and my infant daughter. I am currently looking at options to travel to Borneo. Based on my research, Sandakan seems to be our area of choice as our interests include visiting Danum Valley and Kinabatangan River as our preferred options. Spending at Turtle Island Park is also on our radar (we realize we can't do everything). We are interested in viewing the wildlife (orang-utans, monkey's ect.) and nature of Borneo. We are looking at a 3-4 day trip.
Does anyone have suggestions on tour operators or itinerary? Would it be best to book flight/hotels to Sandakan and figure things out from there? We'd prefer a small local guide as opposed to something very touristy.
Would appreciate any insight.
