For those who would like to explore the island, there is plenty to see and do. Take the Penang Island Tour which visits the famed Batu Ferringhi district, the fishing villages of Teluk Bahang, a batik factory and a Snake Temple. Visit vibrant and exciting Chinatown or explore George Town with its colonial mansions and restaurants or if you wish to ensure wealth in the "after life" visit the Goddess of Mercy Temple and burn some paper money.

Kuala Lumpur | Penang | Kota Kinabalu

About 30 kilometres from the mainland, the Langkawi archipelago of 99 islands offers unspoilt beaches and tranquil, tropical beauty. Rising sheer from the water, towering cliffs of white marble, limestone,serrated quartzite or granite protect sandy coves and bays lined with palm and pine trees. Once the labyrinthine channels that separate the islands provided a haven for the pirates and buccaneers who preyed on the shipping in the Malacca Straits; nowadays they are a refuge for those seeking to get away from it all.
