<title>Day Trips From KL</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Hi guys, 

I will be in KL for three days in April and am wondering if it is feasable to do a day trip to Mekala without wasing too much time travelling or do you think I should just stick to the city?

If anyone has any good suggestions for day trips out of KL I would love to hear them! Accomodation for KL is already booked so staying away the night is not an option. 

Thanks in advance! ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Will be in Singapore and Malaysia with three other people for a frustratingly short seven days in early March.  I've looked all through the Malaysia forum (and have culled lots of helpful info about KL to Taman Negara, thanks to Bruce Moon and SBE, especially)but haven't seen this particular itinerary. Is it possible to fit in the following, even if we fly in some places: Jungle Railroad (even if just for a stretch), Singapore, KL, Taman Negara, and Kuching?  And obviously, we'd just be hitting the highlights in each place.  Many thanks in advance for all help and suggestions. ]]></description>

<title>7 Days In Malaysia - Where Would You Go?</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Hi everyone, 

My partner and I have a 7 day stop over in Malaysia before heading to Phnom Pehn. We will be arriving on the 16th of April and we do want to spend a couple of days exploring KL, but think that 7 days in the city may be too much. 

We are looking to head somewhere not too far away (half a days travel from KL at most) where we can experience a bit of Malaysian culture and see some beautiful scenery. Not fussed as to whether it is beach/mountain/jungle whatever and are not really looking for nightlife, we are open to all recommendations. 

We are on backpacker budget so flying anywhere isnt an option. 

I look forward to your suggestions :) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Hi,
I have checked on internet but am reading/seeing different reviews on the Malaysian visa on arrival. Basically we arrive in KL LCCT on 1st May and need a 90 days visa on arrival (or is it visa exemption, not sure?) anyway, need to know if we need proof of onward flight (not planning on having this as want to travel up through Thailand but want to arrange this once in Malaysia as can be very flexible. Also, wondering if it is possible to arrive from UK to KL, goto Malasian Borneo, then visit Indonesian Borneo and then cross border back into Malaysia Borneo or mainland? Does anyone know what we would need to consider visa wise? Thank you x ]]></description>

<title>Motorbike Rental And Travel Insurance</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me about driving licenses in Malaysia. Is it a problem renting a motorbike when one only possesses a car driving license? In the unlikely event of an accident, would I still be covered by travel insurance?

Renting a motorbike in south east asia seems to be very popular I have noticed but surely it would be quite risky if one is not properly covered by travel insurance???

Thanks ]]></description>

I was wondering if anyone could recommend some nice beaches/islands to visit in Malaysia during the first half of February. If my understanding is right, this will be the monsoon season on the east cost. Am I right about this?

<title>Family Friendly Acc. Langkawi</title>

<description><![CDATA[ We, a family of 4, are going to Langkawi for a few days in feb.
We will arrive on a ferry from Koh Lipe and will depart to Penang. 
I wonder if any of you experienced Malaysia travellers can recommend a nice friendly guesthouse, not a party house. Near a nice beach would be a bonus, we can pay up to $30 a night.

Thanks in advance

<description><![CDATA[ Hi,

I am stopping into Malaysia for the first time on the way to and from Cambodia in January. I think we will spend a few days in KL (3nights)on the way to cambodia and then on the way back we thinking of going direct to  Melaka  (2 nights) from the airport, rather then do a day trip from KL.

 We will be arriving at KLIA at 1600 and was wondering how the best way to get to Melaka was (taxi/bus? times/prices?). Then we will be returning two days later for a 10am flight back to Aus.

Any info greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards

<description><![CDATA[ I would like to do some trekking while in Malaysia but can't decide between the Taman Negara or Malaysia Borneo. 

I'm on a bit of a time schedule as I have only two months to get through Malaysia, S. Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. 

If I only have 3-5 days to spare for trekking am I better off just going to the Taman Negara? Is the Taman Negara significantly different than the treks in Malaysian Borneo? ]]></description>
