Itinerary

Day 1 Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur - KL, as it is locally known, is Malaysia’s hub; a huge, bustling, cosmopolitan city that is the business heart of the nation. Its very ethnic diversity is part of the attraction with Malays, Chinese, Indian and European cultures melting together on the tropical streets. Often overlooked by many tourists, KL has a wealth of attractions, with the voluminous Petronas Twin Towers, at a height of 436m (1453ft), amongst the tallest buildings in the world. From the viewing level of the Towers the city unfolds with its old mosques and ramshackle buildings, contrasting with the gleaming skyscrapers that have sprouted as Malaysia has become one of the regional economic powerhouses.

Transfer between Kuala Lumpur Airport and your hotel with private vehicle and English speaking guide/driver.

The Shangri-La Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, a tranquil oasis of luxury and service in one of Asia's most dynamic cities, offers elegant accommodations, world-class dining and premier recreation choices.

Overnight at Shangri-La (5*).
