Travel: Malaysia - Cameron Highlands

[jsmum]

If not because of the long journey, I will like to go back Cameron again soon. The weather is fantastic. If I not wrong year end will be a wet month. It will be extremely cold at night (good to eat the popular streamboat for dinner)


Century Pines looks like a nice hotel from outside. Do tell us more about the hotel when you are back from your trip

Hi jsmum,


It's a long journey if you drive all the way from Singapore.

But if you fly to KL (1 hr flight) and drive another 2-2.5 hrs; or fly to Ipoh (1.5 hr flight) and drive less than 1 hr - you're there ! :lol:

Yes, Ddecember can be wet, and that's why we try to get there a little earlier - mid Nov and hopefully drier and yet quite cool at night

Flying to KL will be the cheapest thru budget airline. Then renting a car from the airport to Cameron. Firefly to Ipoh is so expensive (perhaps only airline direct to Ipoh that's why). I hope budget airlines will soon come out with a more competitive rate to Ipoh. There are so much good food and attractions in Ipoh

Wah, a lot of people are going to Cameron heh. In our previous trips, we have stayed in a bungalow and Casa dela Rosa.


I must say that the bungalow experience is the best - fantastic lifestyle. It comes with a highly skilled cook (one of those hainanese cooks, who can whipped up a good english breakfast, scorns for tea and a sumptuos chinese meal in the evening type) - luv it.

Anyway, we're making a trip again this mid Nov. Could not get a bungalow though. So we're booked for Century Pines - supposedly renovated. Let's see
