Four Wheel Drives

Malaysia’s rugged undulating terrain and dense rainforests, crossed by rapid rivers, make it an irresistible destination for four-wheel drive (4WD) expeditions. The heat, mud, rolling hills and rainstorms adds to the challenge in the grueling yet exhilarating pursuit of off-road driving.

With over half the country still under jungle cover, Malaysia’s natural landscape brings out the best in man (or woman!) and his machine by testing his skills and endurance in this natural playground. Yet, sweet rewards await, with stunning landscapes or a first-hand look at wildlife, and waterfalls to cool off after an exhausting day of doing battle with the elements.

International 4x4 expeditions and other off-road events held in Malaysia are usually held annually in October and November. The expeditions include Trans-Borneo International Rally, the National Challenge and the Rainforest International Challenge of Malaysia.

Amateurs may not be cut out for world-class events like the year-end Camel Trophy or the Rainforest Challenge, but nothing should stop those who live for adventure and challenge.

White Water Rafting

Rivers have long been the life-blood of the indigenous people of Malaysia. They have served as a means of transport, food source and, more recently, a resource for eco-tourism.

The native groups of the Malaysian interior have been using rafts for thousands of years, but white water rafting has only been popularized since the 1980s.

White Water Rafting Sites

Sabah has two main rivers for rafting, the Padas and Kiulu rivers which are certified as Grade 3 and Grade 2, respectively. Under normal weather conditions, the two rivers are relatively constant in depth and speed. However, heavy rains can cause them to increase to an unsafe Grade 4 and above within just a few hours. During this period, rafting activities are called off temporarily.

Peninsula Malaysia also has its fair share of good rafting sites. These include Sungai Sungkai in Perak and Sungai Selangor in Kuala Kubu Baru, where the river source comes from Fraser’s Hill. Sungai Endau, Jeram Besu and Sungai Lipis in Pahang and Sungai Tembeling in Taman Negara are also popular rafting sites.

Since this sport has become popular, there are rafting operators for all the popular sites that provide the necessary equipment, transport and training.

In Sabah, rafting operators will arrange transport from Kota Kinabalu to Padas Gorge, where the Padas River flows. If you would like to experience the full deal, travel by train from the Pangi Railway Station, where the antique train will take you on a scenic journey to up the winding Padas Gorge.

Then you’re in for a thrilling ride downstream over rapids named The Headhunter, Adrenaline Flow and Merry Go-Round. Successful rafters at Padas will be presented with a certificate of accomplishment at the end of their adventure.

In Peninsular Malaysia, the rafting sites are easily accessible by local transportation. The Selangor River can be reached through Kuala Kubu Bharu town, which is approximately 90km north of Kuala Lumpur A single rafting trip on the Selangor River will take about half a day.

The Telom River in Cameron Highlands and the Tembeling River in Taman Negara, Pahang will take about four hours from Kuala Lumpur. More time is needed to raft the Grade 5 Telom River in Pahang as it is much more challenging.

Wedding

Whatever exquisite Malaysia location you are looking to have your wedding at, rest assured there are many wedding coordinators and industry professionals on hand to provide you with a customized package. Right from the details of your accommodation to the wedding itself (and the much-anticipated honeymoon!), an experienced industry professional will ensure your arrangements get off to a flying start. Many top Malaysian hotels offer wedding packages that include everything from airport transfers and niceties such as flowers, welcome drinks, a basket of fruits and cold towels on arrival, to a luxurious honeymoon suite, breakfast in bed, an extravagant spa session and romantic candlelight dinner for two. Some hotels will even throw in a Master of Ceremonies, photography services, wedding cake, wedding album and a hair-and-makeup session for the bride. Whatever your choice, your Malaysian-styled wedding will be the one photo album you will want to flaunt. Be it a traditional wedding ceremony amidst a rustic village setting, or an avant-garde blast in progressive Kuala Lumpur, this land will fulfil your heart’s desires for that dream wedding.
