Trip
details:
|
Perfect
honeymoon. Lots to do in South East Asia..We wanted
a mixture of relaxation and adventure...We definitely
had them both..especially food wise:-))
|
|
Reason
for choosing this destination:
|
Unusual
places. Since we had the opportunity to travel
for a long period we decided that this was the best
time we went there.
|
|
How
was the weather?
|
Not
too hot. Just perfect. Temperature around 26 degrees.
Dubai was very hot outside but the fact that you
are all the time travelling by taxis or in shopping
malls you would need a cardigan for sure:-)
|
|
Where
have you stayed?
|
All
5 star hotels on bed & breakfast basis..all very
recommended...Excellent breakfast and perfect locations..
Kuala
Lumpur - Renaissance Hotel
Penang
- Mutiara Beach Resort
Langkawi
- Langkawi Lagoon Resort
Singpaore
- Singapore Sheraton Towers
Bali
- Bali Hilton in Ayodya Palace
Dubai
- Grand Hyatt
|
|
What
did you do?
|
Some
highlights..
Kuala
Lumpur - Sight seeing (Batik and Pewter are very popular)
and cheap shopping.
Penang
- Sight seeing ( a lot of temples, crocodile and Snake
temples) & GREAT sea food
Langkawi
- Sailing & Island Hopping
Singapore
- Shopping & Visiting the lovely Sentosa Island
Bali
- Enjoying the hotel & White water rafting...FANTASTIC!!
Dubai
- Shopping & Sundowner Dune Dinner Tour (excursion)
- Definitely not to be missed!!
|
| The
best parts?
|
Everywhere
& everything
|
| The
biggest regrets?
|
Nowhere
& none...Checking out from each hotel!
|
| Any
suggestions/warnings you would like to pass on to
couples visiting the same destination?
|
Go
there and enjoy it. The people there treat you like
a king and queen...not in the least comparable with
any Eurpoean country.
|
| What's
the suggested budget for a similar trip?
|
If
staying in 5 star hotels, great rooms, expensive restaurants
for a month around Lm5000 for both..however in 3 star
hotels you would make it with Lm3000.
|
| Any
other comments?
|
We
both really had the time of our lives. Definitely
a honeymoon we would remember for life. Go there and
enjoy it! Wish I can come with you again:-)
