Malaysia Guide (Thread 9)

^ i think I have mentioned it here already.  We usually book sa Sunset beach resort.  The place is nice, the location is superb.  I have already done booking also for April 2014 pag pumasyal dito mga inlaws ko.

^^ sis ttaveldelight, johor is more discussed sa Singapore - Malaysia thread, you can have a look there for suggestions   For honeymoon, KL is like malinis na Manila, Genting, not too much to see naman na.  You can try cameron highlands if you want or yong mga islands within Malaysia, or go to Thailand instead

[tinapay]

how's the weather in Malaysia? sa forecast, thunderstorm until saturday.... saturday ang punta namin ng KL...

[phurple0515]

^ kaninang umaga umulan ng malakas.  pero ngayon super init ulit.  as i have mentioned, ang ulan lang naman dito is 1 hr tapos hihinto na.  it's the monsoon season na kasi so expect a rain kahit saglit every day.

Thanks sis. Beachfront si sunset? May mga tambayan sa beach pang chill?
Looked at the website pero parang wala masyado. Eyeing federal villa also

hi sis purple. i will be back in KL on may 18-22. ETA at KL LCCT is 12:35 am. me masasakyan pa ba kami ng ganun oras papunta sa hotel? we intend to book again sa sky hotel in bukit bintang. also, we intend to go to malacca. kaya na ba dun ng 1 day or need pa mag overnite? kung kaya mag day tour lang ano oras po usually ang first trip papunta dun, ano at san ang sakayan papunta at pabalik ng kl?

thanks in advance for your reply.

[phurple0515]

^^ yep, beachfront siya.  meron, sarap tumambay don pag sunset   me mga bars naman sa tabi tska tambayan.  di nga lang as free as phuket kasi madami pa ring local Muslims don.

^ Madami pa rin sis, me bus pa din papuntang KL sentral non.  Pwedeng 1 day na sa Malacca esp. kung me tour kayo na kukunin.  yong namention ko before na travel agent do an 8hr tour, with pick up na sa hotel. if not, you can take the bus to Malacca, 2hrs lang ata ang byahe.  The terminal is in Tasik Selatan station.

gaano kalayo yung johor outlet store from legoland? plan kasi namin balikan lang kami sa SG-JB-SG para di na kami mag-check in pa sa hotel dun

[phurple0515]

^ not that sure sis.  pwede mo i-check sa SG-Malaysia thread, more on Johor-SG ang thread na yon

[layzieg]

May kilala ba kyong trusted taxi driver to pick us up sa port klang then tour sa kl then back to port klang?

[eeyore91833]

Safe ba sa KL? Like kl sentral? Parang singapore ba or more of like Bangkok na maraming manloloko?

[Crystalpenelope]

hello..am going to KL mid November for 3 days.  Plan ko pumunta ng malacca or penang.. Di pa final itinerary, since solo travel ako.  Which is better for a solo traveler? Afterwards ay sa bangkok or krabi..Plan ko sana ay train, meron ba from KL to Bangkok?  How many hours will it take me?  And saan ang train station from malacca or penang? Mas affordable kaya kesa sa plane? Nakabook na ko from KL to MLA din..Pero titingnan ko pa kung mas ok from Bangkok to MLA..Yun lang wala pa kong tiket kung galing dun. Sensya na kung maraming tanong. Thanks. 

[traveldelight]

This is a popular route: Singapore > Johor Bahru > Kuala Lumpur > Genting Highlands

[phurple0515]

sis layzieg, there will be taxi drivers for sure sa port klang.  most of the taxi drivers now are under the 1Malaysia program to remove the 'bad' image they had before.

sis eeyore91833, anywhere we go, we should always be wary and be careful.  Pero in terms of safety, if Singapore is good, 2nd ang KL.

sis Crystalpenelope, if you want to go to Bangkok, there is no train direct KL -BKK, pero mag-plane ka na lang, it saves the travel time and mura naman ang pamasahe from KL to BKK.  Same naman ang Penang, 45 mins instead of 4 hrs bus ride (esp. you are only here for such a short time).  Malacca however is kaya na ng 1 day balikan to KL.

Crystalpenelope, hi sis! I saw this website. I hope it helps.

[eeyore91833]

Super tiring mag lakad lakad. Tapos last night and this afternoon naulanan ako.
Ang dami ko type sa Vinci hehe. I will go back. Sa lahat ba ng stores same rates lang  or  may main outlet pa?

Lcct to Kl sentral by sky us 9RM. Next time train nalang ako kasi faster tapos 12.50 RM lang.

Ano pa mga mura shopping dito? I dont like cotton on na. Meron na sa PH eh.
So far sa Vinci palang talag ako ng enjoy. Be ready for me Vinci LOL.
I looked around imbi and BB malls palang.

[Crystalpenelope]

Thanks phurple0515 and yapeegurl.  Medyo malapit na rin kasi at di pa ako makapag-research ng maiigi dahil hectic pa sa work..Anyway, I'm super excited na...Thanks for giving me the info.

[phurple0515]

^^Vincci is cheap, IT gadgets are cheap, I'm not sure of other shops to compare with sa Pinas e.  Pero usually cheaper dito esp. pag sale.

[cutiepie]

Balik ako ulit KL at the end of the month. Heehee.

Ask ko lang besides sungwei/bb plaza, san pa may vincci branches?

Thanks
