Malaysia in Southeast Asia is a country that has a great mix of Asian cultures from Chinese to Hindu and Islamic. To get the most from a holiday it's a good idea to take advantage of Malaysia car hire. You can pick up cars from Kuala Lumpur (KUL), Langkawi (LGK), Penang (PEN), Kota Kinabulu (BKI) and Kuching (KCH) airports.
There is a lot to see and much to do in Malaysia. The main attractions include the Cameron Highlands, the Petronas Towers, the colonial buildings of Kuala Lumpur, the Malay Peninsula and the Straights of Malacca. The rubber plantations, coral reefs and jungles should also not be missed.
One very popular activity in Malaysia is scuba diving. The islands off the eastern coast, which include Tioman, Redang and Perhentian, are among the best places to go for this, while the most popular diving location is Sipadan (located at the eastern tip of Borneo), which is said to be one of the finest diving sites in the world. Alternatively, there are many zoos worth visiting, with Taiping Zoo perhaps the best of them. If you are looking for lively nightlife, Kuala Lumpur is the place to go.
For most of the year, Malaysia enjoys a largely tropical climate. Temperatures range from a pleasant 32 degrees C at midday to a comfortable 26 degrees C at night. For somewhere a touch cooler, the higher locations in the Cameron Highlands tend to have the perfect climate all year round.
One of the most popular things about Malaysia as a holiday destination is that it is considered to be among the best in the world when it comes to value for money. Accommodation, eating out and travel all come at a very reasonable cost.
