    The driver-guide Azli is knowledgeable, courteous, safe, punctual, trustworthy in making the tour worth every penny. Although the huge land distance covered isn't for everyone, those who want to know about a cross section of Peninsular Malaysia would be truly rewarded. Malaysians are ever gracious, friendly people. Definitely a lot of sights and sceneries to take in at every stop. Lush forests abound. Western Malaysia is cosmopolitan, urban while Eastern Malaysia is rural, laid-back. This yin-yang balance make up a well-rounded adventure.

    Good tour. Vehicle was very clean and well maintained. Our driver/guide was very friendly and helpful and provided a lot of information. The tour itself was very enjoyable, I personally enjoyed the Cameron Highlands the most with great scenery and the hotel (Strawbwery Farm Resirt) beautiful. Would definitely recommend this tour.
