WHY CHOOSE A LUXURY HOLIDAY TO MALAYSIA

Malaysia is ideal for a luxury holiday. There are many elegant hotels as well as immersive and exciting experiences on offer throughout the country. Too many people overlook Malaysia without realising quite what an extraordinary country it is. When you take a luxury holiday with Experience Travel Group, you’ll be able to relish Malaysia's highlights in style and comfort.

We firmly believe that a luxury holiday is about more than deluxe hotels, it’s also about your experiences and ensuring the whole holiday is right for you. The hotels are the simple part, we've been to them all ourselves and know them well, so we can give professional advice on which would suit you. We also arrange the best possible transport. Most importantly, we promise that the entire holiday will be a life-enriching experience. Call us today to plan your perfect trip.

 

Popular Types of Holidays in Malaysia

With Experience Travel Group, there is no end to the kinds of holiday you can have in Malaysia: all of our holidays are designed from scratch, exclusively for you. However, some clients like to have a little inspiration of where to start - and this is where our suggested itineraries might help.

The Taste of Malaysia

Malaysian cuisine is widely considered to be amongst the best in the world, with renowned dishes such as Penang Laksa, chicken satay, roti canai, and sumptuous Beef Rendang curry.  And thanks to the diversity of Malaysia’s population, it is also home to the finest Indian, Chinese, and Thai food outside of their native countries. Elasticated waistbands recommended.

Experience Travel Group

Best of both worlds; multi-centre holidays

Many travellers decide to combine Malaysia with another destination to maximise their Southeast Asian experience. Here are a few of our specialists’ recommendations on multi-centre holidays that work fantastically well.

HOTELS IN MALAYSIA; SPECIALLY CHOSEN FOR YOU

Accommodation in Malaysia is varied, from gleaming modern hotels to remote jungle retreats. Our experts have edited their selection of hotels in Malaysia to reflect different travel styles. Excellent city hotels include the Mandarin Oriental in Kuala Lumpur. Those looking for a restorative break might enjoy the world-beating luxury of  Pangkor Laut Island Resort or The Datai Langkawi. Or, for something utterly different and eye-opening, Malaysia is home to some of the most striking eco-hotels in Asia. Earth Lodge in the Ulu Muda Forest Reserve, for example, is one of the finest examples of sustainable tourism in Southeast Asia.

Once-of-a-lifetime experiences

You can have some truly unforgettable experiences in Malaysia.  In Borneo, you can gaze upon the majesty of pygmy elephants in Danum Valley, unique to the region, or spend a morning watching orangutans swinging through the trees in Sarawak.  Or perhaps you could relax by the pool of a glorious hotel or marvel at the world’s largest Buddha statue at Batu Caves near Kuala Lumpur, where the monkeys outnumber the visitors.

Of course, the well-known Petronas towers are on everyone’s lists, but we guide travellers to even more unique experiences in Malaysia. The diverse cultural influences here create a unique and interesting history and life to explore. Experience age-old artisan tours, discover the various pockets that remain of cultures that formed this nation and savour the delicious melting pot (excuse the pun) of cuisines in our cooking classes and food tours. If it's wildlife you’re after you can easily access Kota Kinabalu, the gateway into Malaysian Borneo and the national parks and jungles known for their incredible wildlife experiences.
