List down the nicest holiday spots (driveable) in Malaysia

[Lian9]

Bro....always feel that we should explore Malaysia more often as a holiday spot, one that we can always drive to.

Been driving to JB and KL and Desaru, but am sure that there are much more places to go to.

Kindly list down the places so i can do more research on how to drive there.

Cheers

Here're some of the places I'm more familiar with.

It's a road trip, a long one in most cases, so be prepared. Cash, credit cards, proper rest and maps. Ensure your vehicle is in good condition and that spares are kept, else you're better off renting from Hertz in JB.

For nature lovers, a getaway from city life, you could consider

1) Genting Higlands, Pahang
2) Bukit Larut, Perak
3) Lake Kenyir, Kuala Terengganu
4) Kota Tinggi, Johor
5) Taman Negara National Park

If you have wife and kids that're too localized and can't live a day outside civilization, you could consider...

1) Genting Highlands, Selangor
2) Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan
<o></o>
For a bit history…

1) Penang
2) Malacca

It's not that bad lah...

What you have is a bunch of stupid Singaporeans going over and getting into trouble then coming back and crying to the local press.

And when the local press are hard driven for their 4pm deadline, the just spin some stories on the lands up North.

The only issues I had was back in '98 when I drove a 3.0 Accord in and almost every other trip, my immobilizer was activated and the car had to be towed back to Kah Motors for them to deactivate it. But this could be caused by a faulty immobilizer unit.

Other then that, it's been peaceful for the past 15 years for me. Personally, I've always preferred to drive in MY then SG.

I think Malacca is a nice places to visit.

Malacca is far enough from Spore, so prices are ok.

Its a different lifestyle now. Kiddo just came onboard..thought it will be nice to org a monthly trip with wife to enjoy quality family life....drive up lesiurely and as such, and also to see which are the good and safe places to go to.

Driving in Malaysia generally is safe...of cos must be sengmok la...drive at night along small alleys sure kena wan...Its the same everywhere isnt it, just cos we stay in Sg, we assume eveywhere is Sg, or worse still, we assume everywhere is much worse and dangerous....

How to drive from Sg to Tregganua sia? Seems like a damned long drive
