Malaysian Magic

An Exciting melting pot of Asian cultures, Malaysia is a country of splendid and surprising contrasts exotic rainforests and romantic beaches, dynamic city life and remote islands, bustling markets and ornate temples. There is enchanting wildlife and exciting entertainment. Everywhere you travel you will find that the hospitality of the Malaysian people is unsurpassed. And the resorts and hotels offer highest standard of excellence. From the breathtaking Petronas Towers to travelling the mystical island of Langkawi, or lying on powdery white beaches or trekking through dense rainforests. One thing is certain – you will never be a stranger in this land of endless welcomes.

Singapore, Hong Kong & Kuala Lumpur

Singapore is a modern day city with an air of familiarity and yet there are surprises around every corner. Its impressive skyscrapers intermingle with old English churches and cricket grounds. Orchard Road is a must for those seeking the latest high tech gadgets or more affordable designer clothing. At night wile away the hours sitting in a piano bar or enjoy a night-time safari.
Hong Kong is a diverse city where age-old Chinese traditions are interwoven with the modern city – bustling department stores are a few metres away from the traditional markets. Take an island tour and discover unspoilt country parks, wooded hillsides, pretty sandy coves and picturesque fishing harbours filled with colourful sampans and junks.
In Kuala Lumpur a vibrant east meets west. Some of the world’s most impressive skyscrapers mix with minarets, mosques and historical colonial buildings such as the famous railway station giving an air of bustling excitement.


The Old Kingdom of Siam

Once known as Siam, today Thailand is deservedly known as the land of smiles. Once upon a time there was a fairy-tale Orient, a strange and fascinating land of ancient cultures, glorious temples and smiling, contented people. The spell it seems was broken when modern hotels and highways mixed with temples, floating markets and forgotten beaches. Far from it! Thailand still represents all the mystery of exoticism of the East with Bangkok at its heart. Beach resorts include Pattaya – once a sleepy fishing village that’s now and international beach resort and Phuket – dubbed “the pearl of the south.”

Frazer Island is the world’s largest sand island (120km x 15km.) It is a unique natural wonder and it’s an ideal destination for those who love fishing, walking and exploring by 4wd or simply enjoy nature.
