Itinerary / Highlights

Days 1-2 Bangkok
Sit down to a pad thai at a local street stall, soothe muscle fatigue with a traditional Thai massage or escape the city heat with a cruise along the Chao Phraya River.

Days 3-4 Khao Sok National Park
Spend a night in a rustic bungalow amid ancient gnarled rainforest trees. There's time here to explore the jungle either by foot or on the back of an elephant.

Days 5-7 Krabi
Sun-seekers will fall in love with Krabi's unspoilt beaches, the spectacular limestone cliffs will tempt avid rock climbers and scuba divers will be impressed by what lies beneath the turquoise waters.

Days 8-9 Penang
A charismatic blend of colonial heritage, night markets and religious temples, Penang also offers a wide range of exotic sights and delicious cuisines. Relive colonial days along the streets of Georgetown and don't leave town without slurping on a bowl of spicy Penang Laksa.

Days 10-11 Kuala Lumpur
The ultra-modern Petronas Towers may dominate the skyline, but KL still retains plenty of old-world charm. Shop for a bargain in one of its gleaming shopping centres, visit the nearby Batu Caves or sample some local treats around Petaling Street.

Days 12-13 Melaka
With its colonial architecture and strong Malay, Indian and Chinese influences, Melaka is a true melting pot of cultures. Delve into its long history wandering the ruins of A'Famosa, tuck into a bowl of Nyonya laksa in Chinatown or browse the antique shops on Jonker Street.

Days 14-15 Singapore
Indulge in the Singaporean pastimes of eating and shopping in Chinatown, Little India or along Orchard Road.
