Malaysia and Singapore Explorer

Andrew was a very good leader.

Definitely book extra nights before the trip in Singapore so that you have time to see everything. There was quite a lot of free time on the trip though Malaysia unlike normally on an Explore trip (this is a negative comment) or is there simply not enough to see? Found the tour leader (Sam) was not really up to scratch as a Tour Leader and we have done 25+ Explore trips. The hotel accommodation was fine apart from Suka Suka which is a bit run down. It was a nonsense going to Suka Suka and then doubling back to the Cameron Highlights which then meant we were there at the weekend which is notoriously busy, this needs to be sorted. Had good transport and local guide in Singapore was good.

Need extra day / days in Singapore and definitely an extra day in Kuala Lumpur. The whole tour was amazing. Malaysia is hugely interesting. The food is out of this world. The tour is great but could do a little bit of tweaking. I feel that Explore should implore you to have an extra couple of days before the tour in Singapore and they should include an additional day in Kuala Lumpur as one day was not enough. They could all even shorten the tour by removing a day in Langkawi but also encourage you to have another day there on your own as it is a beautiful end of tour relaxation resort

An excellent trip to Singapore and Malaysia. We arrived a few days ahead of the start of the tour and spent time exploring Singapore, which is easy to navigate when using the metro and a contactless card. Do not miss the Gardens by the Bay and in particular the evening light show. Su was a very informative guide in Singapore and we had a good introduction to the different areas of the city. Mally was our guide in Malaysia and was excellent. She was extremely informative around the locations we visited, the country’s history, the food and the different cultures that make up Malaysian society. Highlights of the trip included the Suka Suka home stay and the vibrant street food hawker centres throughout which is an absolute must for foodies.
