planning a trip - 2008/08/21 16:55Hi there, just starting to plan a trip to Malaysia in March next year and thought I'd pick the brains of what looks like a lot of experienced travellers on this forum I plan to fly to KL then travel by bus to Cameron Highlands..how long approx. is that journey on an express bus? I am hoping to stay at Fathers and do one of thier tours. I would also like to do some exploring without being part of a tour...is that possible or not advisable/easy to get lost? After a few days in CH I plan to travel to Pangkor.... a travel agent told me this is not possible without going back to KL...I am not convinced...has anyone done this trip? was it difficult and did it take a long time? ok. last question... I am vegetarian.. will I be regarded as from another planet or able to get some veggie choices some place?!! Thanks in advance. Heather
Re:planning a trip - 2008/08/22 04:11There is probably no direct bus from CH to Lumut (where u will take the ferry to Pangkor). U have to switch buses in Ipoh (the state capital), which is located somewhere in between anyway.
