SMALL GROUP ADVENTURES IN MALAYSIA

Looking for that sweet spot between independent backpacking and a package holiday?

Travelling as part of a Small Group tour has its perks.   There are local expert tour leaders to take the hassle out of travel arrangements and show you the sights, plus a group of like-minded travellers to share the fun with.  All you have to do is turn up with a smile and a passport

Groups are small, normally 8-16 people, meaning the trips aren’t disruptive to the places you visit, and a smaller number creates a good group dynamic; you’ll get to know a range of people from different backgrounds with a shared interest in travel.

Got the urge for adventure, but no-one to do it with? Over half of the travellers on Small Group trips are travelling solo.

A cultural fusion marrying the best of three cultures, Malaysia's native Malay, South Indian, and Chinese influences combine like a delicious Penang soup. With bustling modern cities, exotic jungle wildlife, and beautiful island beaches, Malaysia is varied and stress-free.

• Visit and trek the mighty Mount Kinabalu
• Hike through lush tea plantations to jungle waterfalls
• Stroll the stunning white-sand beaches of Langkawi
• Scuba dive off idyllic Tioman island
• Spot jungle wildlife from treetop hideouts in Teman Negara National Park
• Feast at Penang's open-air food stall markets
• Live the high life in modern, vibrant KL
• See the endangered orangutan in the lush Bornean jungle states of Sabah and Sarawak

Malaysia has an amazing variety of destinations which are perfect for adventure!

World Class Adventures has access to the best tour operators and will tailor the perfect holiday just for you.

MALAYSIA HAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

If the list above hasn’t whet your appetite, Malaysia has plenty more to offer across both  Borneo and the Mainland:

• Visit the Batu Caves (but keep an eye on the pesky monkeys!)
• Visit the tiny island of Pangkor (check with the locals before swimming as there can be tiger sharks lurking about!)
• Learn about traditional medicines sourced straight from the rainforest.
• Snorkel the turquoise seas of the Perhentian Islands – a paradise of unspoiled forests and white sands.
• Spend time with a local family at a homestay in Kota Aur - a real insight into village culture.
• Cycle through the countryside, past rice fields, for a  slower-paced glimpse of Malay life
• Walk through the historic shophouse lined streets of Georgetown, mixed in contemporary art galleries and boutiques, traditional temples and churches, and modern street art that all influence the cultural hub of Penang.

With 30 years of adventure travel experience, I select operators who deliver the best possible holidays for my clients. I remain independent and have the flexibility to provide you with the best package to suit your specific needs and budget. I search the whole market to find the best deals for every aspect of your trip so that you don’t have to, providing honest and impartial advice.

Some small group tours are run by the operator I book and some are contracted to a specialist small group operator. Either way, I ask for locally owned accommodation and local guides where the tour allows, and I follow my Animal Welfare Policy on wildlife experiences. When the holiday includes flights, a payment to Sustainable Travel International is part of the price shown, with no opt-out, and I keep a record of each payment. My Traveller’s Pledge and full approach are on my Responsible Travel page.
