If you’re planning to travel to a Southeast-Asian country with a mix of rich culture, awesome food, beautiful beaches, and tropical weather, you should definitely travel to Malaysia. On your Malaysia itinerary, there are so many stunning places, waiting to be discovered. Even though I call it my second home, every time I’m here, Malaysia amazes me with its beautiful islands, beaches, landscapes, and new hidden gems that I haven’t yet explored.
As my dad is from Malaysia and the majority of my family lives there, I can give you a local perspective on the country, combined with the view of a global backpacker that has seen many continents and countries.
So for this Malaysia itinerary and Malaysia travel blog guide, I gathered the perfect mix of places worth visiting, what to expect and how you can explore Malaysia’s hidden gems and highlights from a local’s perspective. I also included different Malaysia itineraries – for 2 weeks in Malaysia, 3 weeks in Malaysia, or even longer.
