Je suis nouvelle venue sur ce forum, je vous lis depuis que j'ai reservée mes billets c'est à dire il ya une semaine! lol. pour préparer mon voyage (de dernière minute) en Malaisie, et vos conseils ont étés très utiles donc merci! :)
Je pars dans quelques jours (donc circuit prévu mi janvier 2012) avec une amie (ns sommes deux femmes) et j'aurai plusieurs questions pour finaliser le tout. EN raison de la mousson d'hiver je privilégie la côte EST à mon grand regret je ne verrai ni Borneo ni les îles Perenthian.
1/ Que pensez vous de mon circuit (activités, trajet, budget):
A/ Arrivée mardi soir à KL, 1ère nuit à l'hôtel à Chinatown ( transfert Taxi env 10E le trajet à 2) soirée à Bintang walk, puis dodo et visite au matin mercredi de KL dans un but culturel :SriMahamariamman, Palais du Sultan Abdul Samad, Mosquée Masjid Negara (national mosque), Masjid Jamek, Merdeka Square, Rumah Pengulu et ballade au Lake Garden Park.
B/ Départ en fin de journée mercredi pour Cameron Highland (si il y a un bus en fin de journée?? et nuit à CH -ou dormir dans ce cas?) ou bien une nuit encore à KL et départ pour CH le jeudi matin?
C/ Arrivée à CH soit mercredi dans la nuit, soit jeudi en milieu de journée. Visite de CH (des conseils pr visiter en cette période ) et départ en fin de journée jeudi pour IPOH (quel bus et horaires et budget?)
D/ Arrivée dans la nuit jeudi à IPOH, réservation sur place des billets pour parc BELUM (budget prévu 20€/pers hotel et billet du parc). Une nuit à Ipoh (une idée ou dormir pas cher?) et Réveil et départ pour BELUM en bus vendredi matin (quel bus et horaires?)
E/ Arrivée vendredi en journée pour Visite de BELUM FOREST (des conseils en cette période) et une à deux nuits sur place (des hôtels pas cher à proposer?)
F/ Et là je souhaiterai partir pour LANGKAWI samedi ou dimanche et stopper l'aventure et y rester jusque jeudi pour repos farniente (plongée possible en cette période). Mais quel trajet? J'avais prévu de passer par PENANG y rester une nuit et prendre le bateau jusque LANGKAWI mais je supporte mal le bateau (mal de mer)... Donc je privilégierai la route (ou vol) pour rester raisonnable, que me conseillez vous pour cette dernière étape?
G/ Retour en vol interne de Langkawi jusque KL (quel budget?), visite des tour Petronas à KL et départ samedi depuis l'aéroport de KL.
2/ Quel type de chaussures me conseillez vous pour faire tout ça (avec des tongs dans mon sac) à un budget raisonnable?
3/ Un sac à dos 60L est ce assez? peut on être en short et t shirt manches courtes en cette période?
MERCI BEAUCOUP BEAUCOUP BEAUCOUP pour vos conseils d'experts qui m'aideront à finaliser définitivement mon voyage!
Je n'ai pas une grande expérience de la Malaisie (seulement un séjour de deux semaines et demi en juillet aout 2012). Mais faites attention à ne pas trop vouloir tout voir, aller dans beaucoup d'endroits, même si c'est très tentant !
Après chaque long vol en avion + décalage horaire je ne suis pas au maximum de ma forme, en plus avec le choc des températures, ça fatigue pas mal ! Alors ne prévoyez pas de voir trop de choses lors de votre premier jour et le lendemain. (En allant à Kuala Lumpur, essayez quand meme de voir les tour Pétronas !)
Votre circuit jusqu'à LAngkawi se fait en 4 ou 6 jours (du mardi soir au samedi ou dimanche) et vous avez 5 étapes, ça fait beaucoup je trouve, mais c'est un avis personnel !
Le trajet KL-Cameron Highlands dure dans les 4h, tenez en compte ! J'avais dormi Gerard's Place à Tanah Rata, c'était un peu cher, mais très bien, très propre, très accueillant et la patronne est une crème !
Aux Cameron Highlands, il y a des excursions toutes organisées avec un mini van, c'est pratique, on ne se pose pas de question, mais si c'était à refaire j'éviterai, (j'avais fait celle des plantations de thé/fraises/miel/papillons), à part les plantations de thé (qui sont magnifiques), je n'ai pas aimé, trop organisé, pas très intéressant... Mais il y a de chouettes randonnées à faire (que je n'ai pas eu le temps de testé).
Il fait frais aux Cameron Highlands, surtout le soir, je n'ai pas regretté mon pantalon et mon petit pull.
Un sac à dos de 60 litres est suffisant ! Il est facile (et pas cher) de faire nettoyer ses affaires sur place. Je suis partie avec un 50L, quand on a de la place on rempli et je n'ai pas utilisé tout ce que j'ai emmené. J'ai vu que la température minimale en janvier est de 16 degré (ça descend peut etre plus aux Cameron Highlands).
Pour les chaussures j'avais des tongs, des converses basses et des chaussures de marche basse (dont j'aurai pu me passer), si vous aimez la rando c'est peut etre utile, sinon...
(vous parlez de votre mal de mer, il existe des médicaments efficaces, je suis vraiment malade en voiture quand ça tournicote, j'ai utilisé du Mercalm et j'ai trouvé ça super efficace, sans somnolence).
En effet c'est un programme assez chargé les premiers jours.
Après réflexion je compte faire quelques modifications:
A/ Arrivée mardi soir à KL, 1 nuits à l'hôtel à Chinatown ( transfert Taxi env 10E le trajet à 2) soirée rapide à Bintang walk, puis dodo et visite au matin mercredi de KL dans un but culturel :SriMahamariamman, Palais du Sultan Abdul Samad, Mosquée Masjid Negara (national mosque), Masjid Jamek, Merdeka Square, Rumah Pengulu et ballade au Lake Garden Park.
B/ Départ MERCREDI SOIR pour Cameron Highland.
C/ Arrivée à CH mercredi dans la nuit. Visite de CH jeudi (des conseils pr visiter en cette période ) et une nuit à CH (hotels?)
D/ Départ jeudi soir pour BELUM (quel bus et horaires?)
E/ Arrivée jeudi dans la nuit pour Visite de BELUM FOREST (des conseils en cette période) et deux nuits sur place (des hôtels pas cher à proposer?)
en plus: samedi matin pour PENANG j'y passerai deux nuits (des idées ou dormir?)
F/ Et là je souhaiterai partir lundi aprem pour LANGKAWI lundi et stopper l'aventure et y rester pour repos farniente en avion jusque de penang a langkawi, 4 nuits sur place (hotels ou dormir?)
G/ Retour en vol interne vendredi aprem de Langkawi jusque KL
C'est mieux? Dois je supprimer Belum forest ou CH? lequel est le plus intéressant à voir à choisir?
Je pense que tu en profiteras plus !
Après, dans ton circuit, je ne connais que CH et KL, je ne peux donc pas te conseiller sur les autres destinations.
Je sais qu'aux CH pour l'hébergement la Father's guest house est assez connu et recommandé dans plusieurs guides, mais c'était en travaux lors de mon passage, donc je ne connais pas.
Je suis en train de voir pour Father's guest house mais je ne le trouve pas sur AGODA. Ni sur BOOKING et ne maitrisant pas l'anglais, j'ai du mal à reserver sur les sites anglais.
http://fathers.cameronhighlands.com/index.php?option=com_artforms&formid=1&Itemid=99999 il suffit de remplir le formulaire de réservation, pas d'accompte, pas de paiement en avance et pas de numéro de carte bancaire à donner. (mais ils vous redemanderont de confirmer qq jours avant il me semble, c'est le même fonctionnement qu'à Gerard's Place où j'étais car c'est les même propriétaires.
Vérifie bien si ça te convient comme type de logement, car ce n'est pas un hotel mais une guest house et ça fonctionne un peu plus comme une auberge de jeunesse/colloc, du coup c'est plus chaleureux, on rencontre des gens, enfin j'aime bien personnellement !
E/ Arrivée vendredi en journée pour Visite de BELUM FOREST (des conseils en cette période) et une à deux nuits sur place (des hôtels pas cher à proposer?)
Bonjour,
Je me permets de vous contacter pour savoir si vous pouvez me faire un retour sur la forêt de belum si vous y avez été ? Cela vaut le coup ? Et combien de temps y consacrer ? Merci par avance de votre réponse.
Hi there, My partner and I are heading to Malaysia in early July. We arrive in KL on 03/07 in the late afternoon and leave from KL on 18/07 in the evening. We…

Hi everyone,
I’ll be in western Malaysia for 20 days in January and February.
I’m coming from southern Thailand to Ipoh for the Thaipusam festivities.
Then it’s off to Pangkor Island.
I’ll finish up in Malacca for the Chinese New Year celebrations before heading to Singapore.
I’ve got a 6-day gap.
I was thinking of going to K.Lipis for the jungle train and heading to Dabong, but the caves might not be open.
Any suggestions around K.L.?
Day treks?
A stopover between K.L. and Malacca?
Thanks
Hi, I’ve read that these two volcanoes are super popular and that there are *tons* of people for sunrise, especially in July. I’m looking for firsthand accounts from anyone who’s done it later, around 9–10 a.m.
Thanks for your help!

I’m heading to Cambodia at the end of December 2026 – January 2027 for 3-4 weeks. Since I’ve already visited Cambodia twice, my itinerary is a bit different this time—I’d love to explore Botum Sakor Park, Chi Pat, the Tatai region, and the Cardamom Mountains. I’m traveling solo. If you have any tips on transportation, excursions, treks, sights, or accommodations in the area, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for your feedback!
Has anyone traveled with the Laos travel agency ADV ?
I’m planning a trip to Laos and have received several quotes. Among them, this agency’s seem very reasonable, and so far, the interactions have been positive.
I’ve found a few positive reviews online, but I’d love to hear from travelers who’ve actually booked with them: how’s the organization, guide quality, accommodations, on-the-ground responsiveness, etc.
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
First stop on our discovery of the peninsula: Amphawa. It’s our first night in Thailand (we arrived at Suvarnabhumi at 8:50 AM).
Our initial plan was to explore the area before heading further south. The Mae Klong Railway Market is tempting... but what else is there to do????
We’ll be there on a Wednesday, and from what I’ve read on the forum, some say there’s absolutely nothing to do during the week—no floating market, barely any shops open, no restaurants, etc.
Others, though, say the place is actually more charming without the weekend crowds.
Could you share your thoughts? Missing the floating market is one thing, but if it’s really a ghost town on Wednesdays, I might just drop our bags somewhere else.
Amphawa seemed like a good first stop, just 1.5 hours from the airport, but I’d still like to settle somewhere a bit lively for our first evening.
We’ll be there at the end of October.
Thanks!
Hi,
I wanted to visit the plantations in the morning with GetYourGuide or by just showing up.
How much time should I really plan for?
I’d like to catch either the 3 PM or 5 PM bus back to KL.
Thanks
Hi,
I wanted to get some info about the cable car and the bridge—I see lots of different options...
How much time should we allow for these two activities? If we arrive around 4 PM, will we have enough time to visit without rushing?
Thanks
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hi,
On September 1st, we're heading to Kalimantan for six weeks, probably from Pontianak to the Derawan Islands.
I've scoured this site, which is usually my go-to 😉, and others like VoyageForum, but recent info is pretty scarce.
I'd love any tips on places you've visited—our itinerary is still a work in progress.
We're two couples traveling with backpacks, using buses, boats, guesthouses, and homestays.
Thanks in advance!
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Hi! I’d like to split my trip into two parts: 15 days in Phuket and 15 days in Krabi. Do you know if I can rent a car and drop it off in Krabi when I fly back to France?
Thanks for your feedback!
Have a great Sunday!

Hello,
After 1 night in Khao Sok, I’d like to find a 2 Days 1 Night package on the lake.
After reading a lot, I decided to "break the bank" and treat ourselves to a private tour—mainly to avoid the crowds.
But after contacting several operators, they offer "private tours" that are very expensive (around 700 €), yet in the details, the boats can only leave from the pier at 10 AM like everyone else. (I was hoping to leave much earlier.) The morning program is the same for everyone too (private or not). They drop us off at noon at our floating hotel (I’d chosen Phupha Waree). Free afternoon (swimming or kayaking in front of the hotel). We head back by boat for a 1-hour sunset ride. And the next morning, we leave the hotel at 8 AM to be at the pier by 9:30 AM at the latest—end of the trip.
So basically, we’re paying a lot for a private tour just to do the same thing as everyone else at the same time.
Or maybe I just had bad luck in my search.
I contacted Panida Ladi, who’s very popular on forums. We’d agreed on a private tour that matched my request (departure from the pier at 8 AM, very personalized itinerary). We settled on the itinerary and price, she asked for a Wise transfer for a 30% deposit, confirmed receipt of the deposit. Then 30 minutes later, she messaged me to say she was canceling everything because it was impossible to do the requested tour—and promised a quick refund of my deposit.
So here’s my question: Who’s done a *real* private tour on this lake? Who can recommend a reliable agency? Is it even really possible to do a private tour here?
I’m searching for a real gem for my 3rd stay in Koh Lanta: a lovely, high-quality hotel right by an easily accessible beach in a lively spot.
If you know of anything that fits what I’m looking for and want to share, don’t hesitate!
Hi, is anyone there in Flores right now? According to some websites, everything is closed and the situation is tough. But our guide says it's fine. Who should we believe? We're supposed to leave on September 2nd. Thanks to anyone in Flores at the moment!
Hi dear community,
I'm planning to visit Cambodia this winter, right after Christmas, for my first solo trip and my first trip to Asia. For two weeks (yes, I know it's short, but I really can't do more...). I have two main desires: Siem Reap and the countryside, the villages, the Mekong...
What do you think of this itinerary? Arrival in Siem Reap, departure from Phnom Penh.
SR: 5 days (1 day for arrival, 3 for the temples, 1 for the lake and its villages)
Kratie (stop on the way to Mondolkiri): 3 days (1 day of travel, 2 days there)
Mondolkiri/Sen Monorom: 4 days (1 day of travel, 1 day there, 2 days of treks)
PP: 3 days (1 day of travel, 2 days of sightseeing)
I think I need to cut one day somewhere if I travel from Saturday to Saturday or Sunday to Sunday. In Kratie, maybe? Or in PP? And I'll miss the boat trip that everyone recommends (SR-Battambang), but I don't see where to fit it in. Unless I do a PP-PP loop starting in the east, skip Kratie or just stay one night, then SR, then PP.
In my timing, Mondolkiri seems closer than Ratanakiri, which also tempted me a lot! Will it be too complicated alone? I'm thinking of using local guides or a small local agency for a nature and village getaway.
I've read that Siem Reap is very crowded between Christmas and New Year's. I could also do the circuit in the opposite direction. But I thought it would be easier to get familiar with the country by arriving in a touristy area—I might be wrong...
Thanks for your advice and opinions!
Hi everyone.
I’m planning my trip, and based on all the posts I’ve read, this country is amazing.
Of course, I’ve got a ton of questions for you.
Here’s a possible itinerary: Vientiane - Vang Vieng - Phonsavan - Sam Neua - Nong Khiaw + villages - Phongsali - Luang Namtha and the area - Udomxai - Huay Xai - Luang Prabang and back to Vientiane.
What do you think?
We’re planning to prioritize local transport—is it possible to do this loop?
We’d also love to go kayaking, but I’m not sure if the season’s right or where the best spot is.
For trekking—I read that Phongsali is the most authentic spot to visit villages and see wildlife. Do you know of a reliable agency and a guesthouse with reasonable prices?
Is it worth taking a slow boat for a stretch on the Mekong, and if so, which route?
For accommodations, is it better to book through Booking.com and Agoda or look when we arrive?
Are mosquitoes bad in Laos, and should we take malaria prophylaxis?
What’s the average daily budget (accommodation, food, visits)?
Is renting scooters a good option for exploring towns, and if so, which ones?
From what I’ve read, it’s best to carry cash—euros or dollars? Is it risky to walk around with that much cash?
I’ve still got tons of questions. Thanks to anyone who can help, and I’m open to all tips, info, etc.
Thanks again
Hi there,
I’m planning a family trip (my wife and I, both 47, and our two sons, aged 5 and 12) to Malaysia for the last week of June and the first two weeks of July 2027.
We used to love road trips as a couple, then as a trio, but since our second child arrived, we’ve taken a break with "camping village" style trips.
Now feels like the right time to get back to our old habits, while adjusting the pace for the kids.
We’re craving Asia. We’ve been lucky enough to visit Thailand, Indonesia (Bali and Lombok), and Sri Lanka before.
Friends have raved about Malaysia, so we’re definitely tempted.
For those who know and love Malaysia, what would be a good itinerary starting from Kuala Lumpur, with a maximum of 3-4 stops? We’d like a mix of culture, nature, and relaxation (just to clarify, we’re not big beach fans). All of this without rushing, of course.
Hello,
We’re a family of four with two teens aged 16 and 18. We’re heading to Thailand this summer. We’ll arrive in Bangkok and plan to take a flight to Luang Prabang.
I’ve seen there are some great visits and excursions to do (temples, markets, waterfalls) and maybe even venture a bit north to places like Nong Khiaw, Muang Xay, Muang Ngoy, or Oudom Xay.
But I’ve also heard about the Bokeo region with the Gibbon Experience.
Since we won’t be able to do everything, I’d love to hear about your experiences, impressions, and advice on the two options I’m considering, especially since we’ll be meeting family in Chiang Mai, Thailand, afterward.
Option 1: A loop from Luang Prabang heading slightly north, then a flight from Luang Prabang to Chiang Mai.
Option 2: A few days in Luang Prabang, exploring within a few dozen kilometers around, then heading to Bokeo province for the 2-day/1-night Gibbon Experience. For this option, I saw on Rome2Rio that it’s possible to book a ferry trip on the Mekong from Luang Prabang to Huay Xay—they mention about 8 hours. But is that realistic? What type of boat is it?
Then, to get to Chiang Mai, there aren’t many options—bus or minivan—but how does crossing the border work?
Finally, for those of you who’ve been to Laos in August, what was the weather like?
We’ve already visited Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia during the same period over the past four years and weren’t really bothered by bad weather.
I’m starting a discussion about guides in the Mekong Delta because we’ve just finished our trip in this region and had a hard time finding a French-speaking guide. We had Thanh—she speaks French really well and travels all over the delta region, including Ho Chi Minh City. She’s super friendly and flexible. I recommend her wholeheartedly. If it can help someone...
Feel free to contact us for her number.
Hi everyone,
I couldn’t find any recent info on Kuching.
Can anyone recommend a hotel or guesthouse for under 100 RM that’s nice and affordable? No dorms, please.
Also, does it rain a lot in November, and is it still worth visiting Semenggoh or Bako?
We’ll be arriving in Phnom Penh this coming January and we’re thinking of starting our trip with a stop in Kampong Cham, then Kratie.
After Kratie, we’re considering heading toward Siem Reap with a stop in Kampong Thom.
That said, I’m not really sure how long the Kratie–Kampong Thom journey might take or how complicated it is.
Does this stop on the way to Siem Reap seem like a good idea to you?
If we don’t visit the Sambor Prei Kuk site, are there still any walks or sights worth checking out in Kampong Thom?
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
After a stay on Koh Phayam this coming November, I’d like to spend 2 or 3 days on Koh Phra Thong before heading further south.
Do you think it’s doable to leave Koh Phayam early enough to catch the 10 AM boat from Khura Buri to Koh Phra Thong? The next one isn’t until 4 PM, which would cost me a whole day.
I’m planning a trip to Indonesia, specifically Sulawesi and Java, in September for 10 days.
I don’t know this part of the world at all—any advice is welcome!
I’ll be traveling solo and would also love tips on meeting other travelers or locals.
Hello everyone,
Not long ago, I used to travel as a couple, but my husband has since passed away, and I’ve decided to set off again. The trip I took to Cambodia in January 2025 did me a world of good.
I’m now considering Thailand, a destination we never included in our plans because even 15 years ago, people said it was too touristy. Still, I’m thinking about the itinerary below, but I don’t feel up to arranging buses, trains, or guides on my own while I’m there. I’m looking for one or more drivers and have been in touch with an agency, but their offers are just copy-paste group tours that I don’t want.
So, if you have any contacts, experiences, or advice, I’d be so grateful if you’d share them with me. Here’s my rough plan:
Arrival in Bangkok
Ayutthaya (2 nights)
Kanchanaburi (2 or 3 nights)
Sangkhlaburi/Sai Yok (3 nights)
Sukhothai (2 nights)
Lampang (I’ve planned 3 nights, but that might be a bit much—it depends on what time I arrive in the city)
Chiang Mai
Chiang Dao
Pai
Chiang Rai
I was thinking about the Mae Hong Son loop—thoughts?
What do you think about staying overnight at the Golden Triangle?
When I look online, of course, I can find agencies that organize tours to national parks, etc.
I’m retired but in great physical shape. I’d rather go hiking than sit in hot springs with crowds of tourists who’ve all arranged meet-ups. I don’t want to spend a day at an elephant camp, and I don’t want to visit Karen villages.
I’d love to hear your advice.
Thank you all,
Hi everyone,
Could you share your thoughts on my 3-week itinerary?
We’re a small group (family + friends) of 12 people, planning to leave around January 21, 2027.
Here’s my itinerary:
3 nights in Bangkok
4 nights in Chiang Mai
3 nights on Koh Samui
3 nights on Koh Phangan
4 nights in Krabi
4 nights in Phuket
I’m also open to any great tips you might have...
Thanks, everyone! Alain.
Hi there,
We’re planning a 3-week family trip next summer with our three kids, who’ll be 8, 8, and 7 years old.
