Izmir to Malaysia

Izmir is the third largest city in Turkey, known for its busy commercial centre, beautiful beaches, old districts and local markets, making it the perfect destination for a Turkish vacation. On a trip to Izmir, travellers can explore the Konak Square - known for its iconic clock tower or go for a ride in the Asansor (meaning elevator in English) to reach the hilltop and enjoy panoramic views of the city. They can also discover the heritage of Kadifekale - an old castle on the hill as well as discover the remains of the ancient Roman city at Agora. Kordon is a waterfront promenade on the coast of Aegean Sea, where visitors can enjoy a ride in a horse-drawn carriage. Tourists can also take a boat ride from Konak to Karsiyaka to discover the natural beauty of this place. While visiting Izmir, Kemeralti is the perfect place to go shopping as this historical market district offers a variety of clothes, carpets, jewellery and gifts, among others. To discover Turkey at its charming best without losing out on the advantage of modern amenities, this city could be the ideal choice.

Malaysia, is Asia’s food heaven and cultural melting pot. With home to pristine beaches, lush jungles, reefs and rainforests, fresh highlands, and skyscrapers, Malaysia truly lives up to its slogan ‘Truly Asia’. Malaysia’s supercharged capital, Kuala Lumpur, resembles a crystal garden amongst towering skyscrapers, shopping malls and mono rail tracks. Devote a day to sample Kuala Lumpur’s delicious street food and stalls selling tropical fruits and smoothies; Chinese noodles and Indian dosas to aromatic and spicy Malay curries and seafood. The country really is a crossroads for so many Asian cultures; Muslim Malays, religiously diverse Chinese, Hindu and Muslim Indians live here, along with the indigenous people of Peninsular Malaysia and Borneo. This only proves Malaysia is an ethnically and linguistically diverse jigsaw puzzle. UNESCO World Heritage listed, Melaka and George Town (Penang) have distinctive architectural and cultural townscapes. Spend the day with a traditional tribe or at a tea plantation, strawberry farm, waterfalls in the Cameron Highlands. Trek through the vast national parks of Gunung Mulu and Taman Negara and encounter incredible wildlife, like tigers and elephants. Or head to Borneo and look for wild orangutans, hike through the rainforest, and marvel at the knife-sharp peek of Mount Kinabalu. Then, there are tropical islands such as Langkawi, Tioman and the Perhentian Islands, synonymous with sparkling sands and scuba diving on pristine reefs. Outside of diving, Malaysia is also known for its challenging whitewater rafting conditions; Kuala Kubu Bharu River and Ulu Slim River are two popular options.
