Thing To Do & See


Bukit Jambul Country Club

Malaysia is becoming a popular golfing destination and Penang has some exceptionally affordable international-standard golf courses - Japanese businessmen fly in for just a day or two to take advantage of them. The island's premier course, the Bukit Jambul Country Club, was rated it the second-most-beautiful course in Malaysia by Golf Malaysia. The stunning and very challenging 18 holes are carved straight out of the rocky jungle terrain.

Happy Holidays tours

Most sights on the island are easily reached independently but only expect to see one or two in a day if you're taking local transport, perhaps three or four if you're getting lost in traffic with your own car. For folks on a small-time budget, taking a tour can be a wise choice.

Langkawi Coral tours

Run diving and snorkelling excursions to tiny, uninhabited Pulau Payer, 32 nautical miles north of Penang. The trips include a buffet lunch and time for sunbathing and fish-feeding. It also does day trips and overnight sojourns to the resort area of Pulau Langkawi, which include a set lunch, tours to islands around Langkawi and lodging where applicable - the set snack is at Mc Donald's.
