Bonsoir, Pour notre voyage cet été (2 adultes, 2 enfants 9 et 11 ans), on va louer une voiture pour 3 semaines. Pour les perhentians, on laissera la voiture à Kuala Besut. Mais pour Langkawi, comme il est bien de louer une voiture sur place, peut-on traverser avec notre voiture de location ou faut-il la laisser sur le continent et en louer une autre sur l'île ? (moins intéressant pour nous !!) Merci pour vos réponses et pour tout ce que je trouve sur le site, c'est une mine d'or pour moi.

Coyotte

Hi there, I’m finalizing our next trip to Malaysia and I’m a bit stuck for a few nights in Borneo—can you help? We arrive on July 23rd in Kuching, where we’ll stay for 5 nights (usual visits like Bako, etc.). After that, I’ve got a "6-night gap" before reaching SEPILOK, where we’ll stay for 4 nights (then the Perhentian Islands). Any ideas?

Preamble:

For summer 2019, the idea was to return to Africa. We had already been to Namibia in 2017 (+ a few days in Botswana and the end of the trip at Victoria Falls), which we loved, and a trip to Asia in 2018 (Borneo, Perhentian, and Singapore), a nature-focused trip but a bit disappointing due to environmental destruction. The desire to return to Africa was very strong. We wanted a change of scenery, nature, discoveries, to step out of our little comfort zone (a bit, anyway!) and experience travel differently. In short, we dreamed of authenticity, and we weren’t disappointed.

We traveled as a family of four with our daughters, aged 19 and 17. When the urge for Africa hit, Uganda quickly stood out, especially for the chance to see rare animals, particularly the famous mountain gorillas. When I looked into the budget, I was quickly disheartened. It’s really expensive. Too expensive… Then, after reading a few trip reports on "VoyageForum" (thanks Muriel J!), I decided to ask a local agency for a quote. The first contact was very friendly and responsive, and the initial offer for two weeks fit our budget :). A few images gathered from the internet (especially Sipi Falls) finally convinced us all. I asked for an adapted offer with a few more sites to extend the trip to three weeks and cover a fairly complete visit to the country (which, of course, increased the budget! To stay within an acceptable range, we prioritized activities over accommodations and regularly chose the cheapest options, with 2-3 nice lodges in between). It’s booked! We were in October 2018, and the first thing to do was reserve permits to see the gorillas and chimpanzees. Then, the agency took care of all the bookings except for the international flights, which we booked with Ethiopian Airlines. A few months of waiting to look forward to… and a little worry too! Two events didn’t reassure us: the kidnapping of an American tourist by four men at the DRC border and the Ebola outbreak in Congo, with confirmed cases in Uganda by mid-June…

Here we are in July, and departure is approaching. The suitcases are packed (warm clothes, long, short, dark, light, practical, sun, rain, hiking/trekking shoes, flip-flops—clothes for every situation! Don’t forget: headlamp (essential!), binoculars, cameras), and we’re ready.

One day before departure, our agency Mpolampola, through its manager Paul, informs us that he won’t be the one taking care of us during the trip but another guide named Moses. He has a big problem with a vehicle and can’t do otherwise. For us, as long as everything is okay, no worries, especially since I had read glowing reviews about Moses, who turned out to be a very pleasant guide, cautious (most important) on the road, clear about all the activities, and an expert on birds, his specialty. We briefly met Paul in the middle of the trip, who is also very friendly. In short, we 100% recommend this agency. Flights to Entebbe went smoothly; we arrived around 10:30 AM, filled out health forms (Ebola information signs everywhere), visas, baggage claim, and met Moses, who took us directly to the vehicle. It was in pretty good condition with huge tires (we’d understand why later!), but it had quite a few miles (400,000 on the odometer!). Just missing a seatbelt… Okay, it’s Africa!

Now, here’s our day-by-day itinerary, which I’ll summarize briefly with ratings for each activity: ****TOPISSIME (Amazing) ***Very good **Good *Meh

Day 1) Departure from the airport at 11:45 AM for some currency exchange. Stop along the way at the equator for a meal and souvenir photo! Arrival at Lake Mburo Park *** around 5:00 PM. Even before entering the park, we saw lots of antelopes, zebras, elks, etc.—it’s magnificent. On the way, we had already encountered many goats and cows, and we were impressed by their enormous horns. We enjoyed a nice game drive until about 7:00 PM, when we reached our lodge, one of the nicest of the trip, Eagle’s Nest ****, with a magnificent view, a tent with a nice bathroom/shower, and a very good meal.

Day 2) Departure at 7:00 AM for a game drive; we encountered many animals again, especially antelopes, zebras, and birds. There are no giraffes, lions, or cheetahs in this park. We didn’t get lucky enough to see a leopard… :-) Then, we continued to Lake Bunyonyi ***, where the road and views are very beautiful, but we were shocked to see locals (mostly women and children) breaking stones by hand on the mountainside in very precarious safety conditions. There are regularly dramatic accidents because, over time, entire sections detach and cause landslides. These stones are then used for road construction… Another world… This was the only place we saw this. Lake Bunyonyi is a nice stop (but less exotic in our opinion since we have many lakes back home too!). We took a boat to our accommodation, Byoona Amagara ***, which has a lot of charm. We stayed in huts called "geodomes," completely open to nature, so it was very cool at night. To reach the toilets located below, you had to be brave! The meal consisted of lake shrimp—good but a bit bland.

Day 3) After a good breakfast, departure at 9:00 AM to visit three islands. We took several nice walks with beautiful views of the lake and islands. A local meal was served on the last island. At 1:00 PM, we met Moses for the rest of the program and headed to Ruhija in Bwindi Forest****. The landscapes are breathtaking. After two hours of driving and many photo stops, we arrived at our accommodation near the trekking starting point, Ruhija Gorilla Friends Resort **. We stayed in a room instead of the initially planned tents, which was just as well because there was a lot of wind during the night. We still had time for an activity and decided to meet the Bwata pygmies despite the bad reviews in the guide… The first part of the visit was quite nice, with a visit to a school where the children gave us a very joyful welcome. We had a great time listening to them sing and dance! Then we met the Bwata pygmies who live on the edge of the forest. When Bwindi Forest was declared a national park, they had to leave their habitat because their activities weren’t compatible with nature and wildlife protection. We left on a somewhat sad note… The visit ended with a local doctor explaining different medicinal plants, and we watched the making of local beer from sorghum. Good meal. We had butterflies in our stomachs—tomorrow was a big day! I admit I was a bit stressed, not entirely confident in my physical abilities…

Day 4) After a short night due to excitement, breakfast, and departure at 7:30 AM. First, it started calmly with singing and dancing. Then, a 15-minute briefing and group assignments. No one asked if we had any physical problems or anything (when booking, I had inquired a bit, and they told me groups were assigned based on physical abilities). We were assigned to the Mukiza group. At first, I was pretty happy—it was a fairly large group with babies :). The ranger explained that for now, they didn’t know where the gorillas were… the trackers couldn’t find them… Oh… (that’s not a good sign!!!) We set off at a good pace, first on a reasonably sloped path. We were accompanied by a family of four Italians and five porters (four for us!). After an hour, the ranger stopped us and informed us they still couldn’t find them—they had fought with another group the day before and scattered throughout the forest, so they were very far away, and we needed to move faster… Hmm… we picked up the pace (we weren’t going slowly before!!!) and walked for another good hour—down, up, down again, up again, we kept going, but always more or less on paths. Then another stop. A 10-minute break waiting for news. The news wasn’t very precise, it seemed! The ranger decided to cut through the forest—machetes were used to clear the path. We descended unimaginable slopes, then climbed back up. Our stick kept getting stuck; luckily, our porter helped us, held our hands, and the terrain was vertical! An hour later, another stop: we heard gorilla cries (yay!!!). False hope—we waited again for news from the trackers, who informed our ranger that it was a non-habituated family, so we couldn’t see them. Cold shower—we had to go all the way back up and return to the starting point to maybe see another group. But time was running out… We arrived around 1:30 PM; all the other groups had already left long ago. Our guide was worried because we still had a long drive ahead. We quickly ate a banana, and off we went for another trek (I was exhausted!). Luckily, this group was close—about 45 minutes of steep descent (I was already thinking about the climb back and considering being adopted by a gorilla ). The forest was sublime, with magnificent tree ferns—the place was truly splendid. Finally, we were there. The porters stayed behind, we grabbed our cameras, and followed the ranger. The progress wasn’t easy, but suddenly, a female was in front of us, curled up in a little ball, eating—so cute. The emotion overwhelmed us. But she moved away—it’s hard to observe them; they move constantly, and the terrain is very steep and uneven. We saw a female descending from a tree with a baby on her back—too adorable. Then, here was the silverback, enormous, incredible, yet so calm and peaceful. He ate quietly and gave us a nice demonstration of nostril exploration! We could observe them for a good hour, but photographing them wasn’t easy because they kept moving, and we could barely stand! Toward the end, a large male (black back) suddenly stood up and decided to pass right where I was! I ended up in the bushes, and the male passed in front of me just a few centimeters away (he stepped on one of my daughters’ feet!) followed by the whole family. Just an exceptional moment. It was time to leave; we had to climb back up. I dreaded it because, I admit, I was exhausted. We finished the hike after 4:00 PM, exhausted but happy. The ranger gave us diplomas, and we didn’t linger because we still had a long drive—we needed to reach Ishasha before nightfall. Our guide was a bit stressed. If we were to do it again, we’d spend an extra night in Bwindi. However, it seems finishing so late is exceptional—it never happens, according to our guide! The road between Bwindi and Ishasha is sublime, with extraordinary landscapes, and despite the late hour, we regularly asked our guide to stop for photos. We arrived at Enjojo *** Lodge around 6:00 PM. The huts are located quite far from the reception and the bathrooms, a bit far from the huts, but otherwise, it was very nice.

Day 5) Departure at 8:00 AM after a good breakfast with the hope of seeing tree-climbing lions (no luck!). Overall, there weren’t many animals, and we arrived around 12:45 PM at our next stop, Parkview Safari Lodge ****, with a magnificent view, a beautiful family bungalow, and a good meal. We enjoyed a short relaxation by the lovely pool. At 4:00 PM, we left to see Kyambura Gorge *** and hike there. Unfortunately, this activity is no longer available, so we walked around the area—it was very beautiful. Back at the hotel, a little rest after the previous day wasn’t a bad idea! Reading, swimming, meals, and dances made the end of the day enjoyable.

Day 6) Departure at 6:30 AM—one of our daughters was sick (stomachache, cold sweats…). Safari in Queen Elizabeth ** (Kaseny Plains)—a bit disappointing. Stop by the salt lake with a nice view. A small market, but we weren’t thrilled by the crafts (overall, apart from some beautiful baskets/plates, there wasn’t much, and the wooden objects were, in our opinion, much less pretty than in Namibia). Then we took the crater road (27 km long) **** with magnificent landscapes. However, you absolutely must close the windows because it’s infested with tsetse flies. At noon, we arrived at Mweya, where we stayed in basic rooms, but the restaurant was well-placed with a beautiful view of the Kazinga Channel. At 2:00 PM, we enjoyed a magnificent cruise **** on the channel. Elephants, antelopes, crocodiles, hippos (including adorable babies), buffaloes, all kinds of birds. Wow!!! Two hours of pure bliss. Quiet end of the day playing cards with a view of the channel and elephants.

Day 7) Departure at 6:00 AM—still sick, we weren’t sure if it was due to the preventive treatment (Malarone) or something else… Another game drive in Queen Elizabeth (Kaseny Plains) and breakfast by the salt lake. Overall, we were a bit disappointed by this park. Then we took the road to Crater Lakes***, again with very beautiful landscapes. A hike of about an hour and a half allowed us to discover these beautiful crater lakes (the water mainly comes from the Rwenzoris). We crossed pretty villages and had nice encounters. End of the day at Tinka’s Home ****, with a family. We loved this place—very welcoming, where we took a cooking class with our hosts. A really great time. After the meal, we enjoyed African stories and dances. Really awesome.

Day 8) Departure at 7:30 AM for another highly anticipated discovery—the chimpanzees in Kibale Forest ****. We went to the meeting point and were split into groups of six, each with a guide. We saw three different groups, and for the last group, we followed a chimpanzee (slightly more comfortable running in the forest than we were!) that led us to the group. Their cries are very impressive, and we could observe them well, even though they were often high up in the trees. We were lucky enough to see two on the ground, very close to us. It was magnificent. End of the encounter and return to the starting point—it was noon. We went back to Tinka’s Home for the meal (delicious!). At 2:00 PM, we hiked in Bigodi Swamp ***, a marsh surrounded by beautiful vegetation, especially huge papyrus, and inhabited by many birds and monkeys. We saw, among others, black-and-white colobus monkeys, red colobus monkeys, and vervet monkeys. We also visited a basket-weaving workshop where we bought two beautiful baskets. Then a short stop in Fort Portal, where we stayed for two nights at Ruwenzori View Guesthouse ***, a nice place with a family room and very good communal meals.

Day 9) Departure at 8:00 AM for a hike in the Rwenzori****—it was a bit chaotic today. First, we had to exchange shillings because we wouldn’t have another chance in the following days. At the bank, employees went to get the bills by motorcycle from other buildings—it was quite surreal! And it took time! Then there was a misunderstanding between the organizer and me… I really wanted to see the region where chameleons are found in the Rwenzori—this region is south of the mountain range, and we were in the north! Anyway, the program included an ascent in the northern part with a positive elevation gain of over 1,500 meters… Talking to the guide scheduled for this hike (Noah), we explained that we really wanted to discover the vegetation and these famous chameleons, not necessarily achieve a physical feat… (we’d had enough!). The decision was made to go south, which meant quite a bit of driving. The hike was really enjoyable, with magnificent vegetation by the river. We saw three of the four chameleon species present, including the famous three-horned chameleon. The region is superb. We ended with a drink at Ruboni Camp, which has a magnificent view of the region (ideally, we should have stayed there). Two hours of driving to finish, and a good meal :).

Day 10) Departure at 8:00 AM—we had a long drive to Ziwa Rhino Ranch****. We passed through Hoima, had lunch in Masindi, and arrived in time for the rhino tracking walk. We could approach them closely on foot—it was impressive. We saw eight. Since we were staying on-site in the guesthouse **, we received precise safety instructions for moving between the rooms and the restaurant. And we quickly understood why!

Day 11) Departure at 6:00 AM for breakfast—surprise, in front of our room, several large rhinos were sleeping (we had also heard a lot of animal noises during the night—rhinos but also what seemed to be predators). So we had to take a detour to reach the restaurant! Second surprise—next to the restaurant, just three meters away at most, two mothers and their baby were also sleeping! Memorable! Then we had an appointment for the shoebill trek and canoe ride **** (package with the previous day’s walk). So there we were, in our boots, splashing through 30 cm of water in search of the shoebill (I really wanted to see one :))! It was really fun, and luck was on our side—a shoebill had just landed in the distance! We approached as best we could and observed it from afar. What a strange bird! There are very few left, and Uganda is one of the countries where the chances of seeing one are quite good. The tour continued with a canoe cruise where we saw a herd of cows (the famous ones with enormous horns) being swum as a dowry to the father of the future bride! A funny spectacle. This stop wasn’t the most anticipated, but we all thought it was really worth the detour. Road to Murchison Falls Park, and arrival around noon at Red Chili Rest Camp **, where we stayed for two nights (family banda). Good meal. Then a cruise to Murchison Falls*** where we disembarked and continued on foot. It was pretty. Back to Red Chili.

Day 12) This morning, early departure for a cruise in search of the shoebill*** (booked in case we didn’t see one at Ziwa). The landscapes were pretty, but there weren’t many birds in the end. We spotted the chosen one from afar after the first 10 minutes—so the suspense didn’t last long :-) It was a nice activity but quite long—5 hours. In the afternoon, safari in Murchison Park****—this park is sublime, the landscapes fabulous. Really one of our favorite parts of the trip. Lots of animals and even a leopard spotted with binoculars because it was far away! Night at Red Chili.

Day 13) Departure for the first morning ferry—it was drizzling, the sky was threatening at first, so the landscape was spectacular! Beautiful contrasts. In the middle of the morning, we were lucky to observe a whole group of lions, first from afar, then with a little patience, the whole group approached until they passed beside and in front of our vehicle. What emotion and excitement! We could then observe large groups of giraffes. They were magnificent. The morning was incredible. Then we headed to our lodge, Fort Murchison ****, and on the way, we saw a whole group of elephants—the view was magnificent. We had a very good meal and enjoyed the pool a bit. We also met Paul, the organizer of our trip. Very nice :). In the late afternoon, off for a short safari in the park. We slept in very well-equipped tents.

Day 14) Today, we had a long drive to Kidepo Park. It was raining, which didn’t help our guide—according to him, the tracks near Kidepo turn to mud with rain and become difficult to navigate. We saw, among other things, a bus in a bad situation in the ditch. Some sections were really tricky, and we were glad to have a driver. The end of the trip—the landscape was spectacular and original, and we saw some traditional villages. We arrived at Kidepo quite late. Short safari in the park before reaching the accommodation. We booked two simple bandas in the park camp**. It was clean but didn’t hold up well in the rain . The restaurant was very nice, though.

Day 15) The day was dedicated to discovering Kidepo Park **** where the landscapes were again superb. First encounter with a lioness resting on a rock. We saw other lions later and observed them for a long time. There were almost no other tourists in the park. Our daughter wasn’t feeling well, and by the time we arrived at the lodge, she had a temperature of 39.5°C (103.1°F)… A nap was necessary. In the late afternoon, we returned to the spot where we had seen the lions that morning, and they were still there—they weren’t happy because rain was threatening! It was a great photo opportunity. Then came the downpour, and our driver urged us to return quickly because the tracks were becoming impassable. Indeed, a jeep was in the ditch… The return was eventful, and several times we slid without being able to do anything… Wow, what a day!

Day 16) No safari this morning because of impassable tracks—the road to Kotido*** was longer than expected as we had to take a detour. The landscapes along the way were surprising. We finally arrived around 1:00 PM at the accommodation and left at 3:00 PM to visit the largest manyatta in East Africa with two translators. It was incredible—a very beautiful experience. The manyatta is immense and has 28,000 inhabitants. Night at Karamojaarts guesthouse*—very average meal.

Day 17) Departure for Moroto****—on the way, we saw many bird species. Moroto doesn’t look like other Ugandan cities. Life there seems very pleasant. We arrived at Kara-Tunga and had a bite to eat. At 4:00 PM, we left to visit a Karamojong village. We enjoyed beautiful dances and watched communal games—it was fun and so authentic. Then we headed to a kraal (where shepherds and herds are) to set up our camp. Moses had to get used to the idea of sleeping in the tribe in a tent! It was incredible to find ourselves in this universe. The place was beautiful, and we had a great time with the Karamojong. Some had never seen white people… had never been in a car… Their culture is incredible. During the evening, around the fire, to our guide’s dismay (a bird enthusiast), they grilled hornbills! On our side, we ate a meal prepared by Kara-Tunga for our sensitive stomachs! Night in a tent.

Day 18) Dawn wake-up in the fog—the atmosphere was quite strange. Our daughter was attacked by a cow—fortunately, more fear than harm, but she ended up with a lot of thorns in her buttocks and thighs ! Then we left for the Mount Elgon region, specifically Sipi Falls****. Lacam Lodge****, perched on the edge of the cliff with a direct view of one of the falls, was just magnificent. The view and landscapes were fabulous. Big favorite. We had dinner and then went for a hike to visit the three falls in the region, partly in the rain. The landscapes were breathtaking! Sunset at Lacam Lodge with the sun setting over the waterfall. We couldn’t get enough and stayed to admire until nightfall!

Day 19) Visit to coffee plantations*** where we were given all the useful explanations to understand the culture and the incredible work required for this product, which is ultimately not very glorified. The visit was very interesting, and we drank very good coffee with the owners. Last photos at Lacam Lodge, and then departure for Jinja, where we arrived in the middle of the afternoon. We took a small cruise to see the source of the Nile*. Very touristy and not at all to our taste… Then a meal at Jinja Base Camp** where we enjoyed guacamole. Our guide Moses left us because another group was waiting for him!

Day 20) Road to Kampala***, the market, the Gaddafi Mosque. Short but interesting visit. Last meal in Entebbe by Lake Victoria, where we almost felt like we were by the sea. Transfer to the airport and return to Switzerland…

Epilogue: All four of us were enchanted by this trip, which will undoubtedly remain one of the most beautiful we’ve ever taken. Talking about it gives me chills and brings tears to my eyes. It was simply a magnificent experience. However, I wouldn’t recommend this trip to everyone because you often have to overlook small inconveniences like toilets (the worst of my life) and certain comfort details that, for us, remain details but could be important to others.

Our favorites: - The gorilla trek - The cruise on Kazinga Channel - The Fort Portal region - The Rwenzori Mountains - The chimpanzee trek - Murchison Falls - Kidepo - Spending time with the Karamojong tribe - The Sipi Falls region - The accommodations: Eagle’s Nest, Byonna Amagara, Parkview Lodge, Tinka’s Home, Rwenzori Guesthouse, Fort Murchison, Night in the kraal, and Lacam Lodge

What we liked less: - Queen Elizabeth Park - Jinja - The accommodations: Ziwa Rhino Ranch, Karamojaarts Guesthouse

I’ll try to post some photos later. If you have any questions about a future trip, I’d be happy to answer them.

Bonjour,

nous sommes une famille de 2 adultes et 3 enfants (14,13 et 8) et nous allons l'été prochain faire un très beau voyage de Singapour à Chiang Mai. Après Kuala Lumpur, nous allons passer 6 nuits sur l'île Pulau Perhentian Besar puis nous voulons remonter vers Bangkok.

Je voudrais partir du port Besar directement en taxi pour la frontière Songai Kolok puis prendre un train pour soit Narathiwat ou Hat Yai pour prendre un vol pour Bangkok. Le problème est que j'ai peur de cette frontière terrestre, je ne suis pas du tout rassurée de voyager avec mes enfants dans cette partie de la Thailande. Pourtant, ce serait la solution la plus simple pour rejoindre Bangkok et aussi la plus économique (à 5 ca chiffre vite!).

Quelqu'un pourrait m'en dire plus sur la sécurité dans cette province à l'heure actuelle? Apparemment ca s'est calmé??? Est-ce plus dangereux de prendre un avion à Narathiwat ou à Hat Yai?

Merci beaucoup d'avance pour une réponse à une maman aventurière mais prudente quand même😉

Bonjour,

J'ai lu different commentaire et regarder plusieurs destination notamment sur la meteo. Nous recherchons avec mon epouse et ma grande de 14 un endroit belle mer pour faire du snorkeling.

Nous sommes amateur et en avons peu fait. Nous ne recherchons pas quelques chose de trop technique ou physique.

Les destinations que nous avons commence a regarder sont : Maldives, Seychelles, Perhentian, maurice, la reunion, zanzibar, tawitawi, bali.

difficile de vraiment comprendre la ou la meteo ne sera pas correcte pour pouvoir faire du snorkeling meme si je comprends que nous devons plutot nous diriger vers les cotes africaines (seychelles, reunion)

Je suis preneur de vos avis,

Bonjour, Je pars en malaisie dans 15 jours. Nous restons 3 semaines sur place et avons prévu de remonter toute la côte EST en partant de singapour. Evidemment des arrêts de quelques jours sont prévu sur l'île de Tioman et perhentian. Ma question est la suivante: concernant le côte EST, (à part les îles) quels sont les incontournables à ne pas louper (villes, lieux, etc).

J'ai une autre question, nous faisons tout le voyage sans aucune réservation d'hotel (ce qui nous permettras d'être libre durant 3 semaines), pensez vous que cela peux poser problème (surtout sur les îles) ou trouvons nous toujours de la place quelque part poiur 2?

Merci d'avance pour vos réponses :) Louis

Bonjour, Nous sommes actuellement à Ipoh et n'avons trouvé aucun loueur de scooter pour rayonner :( Pouvez-vous me confirmer que les villes suivantes en ont bien? Si vous avez les prix et caution demandés je suis bien entendu preneuse ;) » Tanah Rata » Langkawi » Taman Negara » îles Perhentian » Malacca » Johor Baru Merciii ! Elisabeth

Nous sommes partis 3 semaines en famille (3 enfants) en Juillet. Nous avons adoré la Malaisie.

Voici notre itinéraire : - arrivée à Singapour 2 j - bus vers Malacca => 2 j à Malacca - 5 j aux iles pérhentians - 8 j : à Bornéo dans le Sarawak (nuits chez l'habitant, ponte de tortues, Bako, Semmengoh) -2 j à Kuala lumpur Si besoin d'infos n'hésitez pas, j'ai fait le récit de notre voyage , voici l'adresse de notre blog

www.familleenvoyage.com/malaisie/

Si vous êtes allés en Malaisie en juillet quelle île avez-vous visité et quel temps avez-vous eu? D'après mes recherches sur le net la côte Est me semblait préférable afin d'éviter les pluies abondantes et puis certains sites se contredisent alors merci de me faire part de votre expérience. J'ai une préférence pour les îles Perhentians alors les pluies y sont-elles vraiment importantes à cette période? Merci de votre aide. Magali

Bonjour à tous, Nous partons dans 2 jours visiter la péninsule Malaisienne et ce, pour 15 jours. Nous avons établi une "colonne vertébrale" du voyage dans cet ordre : Arrivée KL Penang Teman Negara Perhentians KL

Ce sont les points que nous souhaitons voir. Cependant au vu des distances et le peu de temps de voyage, nous avons un doute sur l'ordre des points à visiter. Pour gagner du temps nous nous sommes dit : Avion entre KL est Penang + avion de kota barhu à KL pour le retour mais les trajets entre Penang et Teman Negara ont l'air très longs. Dois je réorganiser ?

Merci beaucoup !

Bonjour à tous 🙂

Ma copine et moi partons pendant 2 mois et 2 semaines (du 18 sept au 30 nov) en Asie du Sud Est. Nous arriverons à Bangkok, passeront 3 jours là bas, pour ensuite descendre en Malaisie faire les îles Perhentians et Kapas, ainsi que le parc Taman Negara.

Après c'est le flou, nous souhaitons par la suite faire le Laos, et la Birmanie.

pensez-vous que nous pouvons inclure le Cambodge ou/et le Vietnam entre ? Niveau timing Avez-vous des suggestions d'itinéraires ?

Je vous remercie par avance !!

Bonjour à tous !

Je pars avec ma copine à la mi-septembre 2017 pour la côté Est malaisienne, et nous aimerions faire des petites îles paradisiaques pour la relax et le snorkeling principalement (ce serait bien de voir des requins d'ailleurs).

Nous avons donc bien évidemment entendu parlé des Perhentian et de Tioman, cependant selon les dires il s'avère que ça à l'air pollué par le tourisme de masse... est-ce vrai ? (comme le sud de la Thailande?)

Nous voyons qu'il y a une multitude d'îles sur cette côte (Redang, Kapas Tenggol, Babi Besar...) sûrement moins touristique, mais sont-elles faciles d'accès et pas trop chères ? En avez-vous à conseiller ?

Merci d'avance pour vos retours et vos conseils 🙂

Bonjour à tous!

Avec mon ami, nous partons 1 mois en Malaise...décollage prévu dans 3 semaines et demi. Arrivée à Kuala Lumpur. Concernant l'itinéraire, je suis un peu perdue. Nous souhaitons aller 1 semaine ou 10 jours à Bornéo, 2 jours Singapour, 2-3 jours Kuala Lumpur, 1 semaine du côté de Kota Bharu et îles Perhentian, 3-4 jours Tioman, et 1 semaine du côté de Penang, George Town. Voilà globalement l'idée en terme de durée selon les lieux. Cependant, nous ne savons pas dans quel sens réaliser cet itinéraire, pour perdre le moins de temps possible dans les transports aussi. Sachant qu'il faudra prendre un avion pour aller à Bornéo... Commencer par KL et ses environs, puis Nord-Est, puis Nord-Ouest, puis avion pour Bornéo depuis Kota Bharu, puis Bornéo, puis retour KB, puis descente à Singapour (loooong trajet!!) en passant par Tioman, puis retour à la case départ KL??? Que nous conseillez-vous? Merci beaucoup!!

Bonjour!

Je pars 3 semaines en Malaisie en juillet aout prochain. Je serais avec ma fille de 5 ans et demi et ma femme enceinte de 4 mois et demi.

Nous commençons par 2 jours à KL, puis 4 jours sur Penang, puis 5 jours aux Perhentians.

Il me reste une semaine à caler, sachant qu'on reprend l'avion à KL et qu'on pensait finir par Malacca avant ce retour sur KL. Du coup je pensais quitter les Perhentians et passer par Terrenganu, et nous faufiler à l'intérieur des terres, afin de s'approcher de notre dernière étape à Malacca.

J'hésite donc sur la destination à l'intérieur des terres: Taman Negara me semble trop touristique et peut-être pas très approprié pour ma "configuration familiale", je me demandais si le secteur de Kenong Rimba (via Kuala Lipis) ne serait pas mieux, ou alors abordé le Taman Negara par le lac Kenyir (côté Terrenganu).

Voilà, si vous avez des petits conseils, n'hésitez pas!

Merci d'avance :)

Bonjour les amis Globe-Trotters ! Nous (famille avec 2 filles de 13 et 16 ans) partons en Malaisie l’été prochain, du samedi 29 juillet au vendredi 18 août : génial !😎🙂 Mais les questions s’accumulent pour essayer d’optimiser notre périple (Melaka, Penang, Bornéo, Perhentian, KL), sachant que l’idée est de profiter du mix ville/culture + parcs nationaux/flore/faune + plage. Voici notre programme prévu, puis nos questions. Merci par avance pour tous vos bons conseils !

Programme : Samedi 29/07 : départ de Marseille Dimanche 30/07 : Arrivée KL à 16h05. Nuit sur KL. Lun 31/07 : KL. Nuit sur KL. Mardi 1er août : Départ pour Melaka en bus. 2 Nuit sur Melaka. Jeu 3 août : Départ pour KL en bus. Avion pour Penang. Nuit à Penang (1 journée de transit ! 😕L’alternative aurait été un vol Melaka-Penang mais je ne trouve qu’un vol par semaine, le vendredi 4 août !) 3 nuits sur Penang Dim 6 août : Vol Penang- Kuching 6 nuits sur Bornéo Sam 12 août : Vol Kushing - Kota Bharu puis transfert vers l’ile (Besar Perhentian). (quasi 1 jour de transit !😕) Iles Perhentian – 4 nuits Mer 16 août : Vol Kota Bharu - KL Jeudi 17 août : Journée KL.Décollage de KL à 23h05

Questions : · - Mon premier soucis est d’optimiser les déplacements pour éviter les journées uniquement consacrées aux transits. Toute suggestion pour optimiser cela sera appréciée ! · - Lors de notre arrivée sur KL le premier jour : Nuit sur KL ou départ direct sur Melaka ? (on risque d’être fatigué du voyage…). · - Je n’arrive pas à trouver un vol de Penang vers Mulu ou vers Sandakan. Dommage, ça éviterait de passer 2 fois par Kushing. 😕Vous avez d’autres idées ? · - Sur Bornéo, l’idée serait d’aller sur la région de Sandakan (Selingan Island, Sepilok, Kinabatangan River), sur la région de Mulu (grottes) et sur la région de Kuching (Lemanak Longhouse, Parc de Bako). Mais le programme semble trop chargé pour seulement 6 jours. 😕Aussi, nous devrions supprimer la région de Mulu. Qu’en pensez-vous ? · - Dans chacun de nos points de chute, quel est THE site à voir ?🙂 THE activité à faire ? 🙂THE restaurant à ne pas louper ?🙂 THE hôtel ou Guest House à utiliser ?🙂

Merci beaucoup !!😉😉

Coucou la communauté, comme annoncé dans le titre je n'arrive pas à me décider pour la destination de nos futures vacances, à la base j'aurai souhaité partir mi février (soit pour Watamu, Praslin-Digue, Perhentians, sachant que si j'ai bien compris les deux dernières c'est plutôt mitigé côté météo du coup pas grave on irait mi-avril, mais même là ça reste deux destinations à risque "coté pluie" 😕) en fait nous souhaitons combiner du bon snorkeling à de belles plages de sable blanc (sachant que nous avons été plusieurs fois enchantés aux Maldives, Cuba, Kenya, Mexique Egypte...nous aimerions découvrir d'autres destinations), donc amis snorkeleurs ^^ vous qui avez été en Malaisie ou aux Seychelles donnez nous vos avis svp

Bonsoir,

Je serai à KL la semaine prochaine et je ne sais toujours pas où aller pendant mes 2semaines de vacances... A vrai dire, j’attendais de voir la météo mais c'est la pluie un peu partout en Malaisie et Indonésie.

J'ai déjà fait KL, Perhentians, Taman Negara, Bali et Gili Trawangan.

Avez-vous une idée d'itinéraire? Disons une semaine de visites et une pour se reposer sur une belle plage. J'avais pensé à Sumatra...

Merci et bon weekend! 😉

Bonjour tout le monde, On a prévu un voyage le mois prochain au Malaisie avec notre bébé de 13 mois. Nous allons programmé de passer quelques jours à kuala lumpur après malaka et par la suite les iles perhentian et plus précisément l île pulau Kevin et pulau bezaf. Donc ma question est ce que quelqu'un a déjà parti en voyage au Malaisie avec des enfants?? Surtout dans les îles perhentian??je m inquiète un peu pour mon fils c'est son premier voyage à une destination lointaine alors qu' il a déjà était au Maroc 2 fois quand il avait 2 mois et 10 mois. Merci de partager avec moi vos expériences et vos conseils.

Bonjour,

Je cherche une destination pour Août où je peux facilement plonger (niveau rescue) et faire du snorkeling. J'aimerai trouver un endroit plutôt tranquille et relativement abordable (critères difficiles en Août 🤪).

J'ai pensé à une île en Asie mais je ne sais pas si la période est propice par rapport à la mousson : Malaisie (tioman, perhentian, sipadan), Philippines, Bali (Labuan Bajo). J'ai pensé aussi à la Thaïlande et plus particulièrement à Koh Tao étant donné la période, mais je suis un peu sceptique par rapport à la tranquillité et la qualité des fonds.

Mes derniers voyages : Bali, Crète et Egypte.

Merci d'avance pour vos idées et vos expériences ! Elodie.
