Such an amazing country! Did you go anywhere in KL that we didn't?

​@@gazwright7545Not exactly in KL but I'd recommend visiting Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary, which is about 100 km from KLCC. Although it's relatively less frequented by foreign tourists, I bet you guys will have a unique experience."

We really enjoyed it and will 100% be coming back. KL is so much more advanced than London and reminded me a lot of Japan in many aspects :)

@@gazwright7545 Haha, nice that you now say it like a local - "KL". Yeah, KL is very popular now, becoming a business, tourism hub. In 2023, it was 6th most visited city globally.

Thast crazy - where was the No1 visited??@@leealex24

We had a great time and we will 100% be coming back. Where should we go to next time?

@@gazwright7545 Wonderful. You guys can visit Penang, Melaka, Langkawi or other islands on the east coast, or visit Sabah and Sarawak on the Borneo island. 😀

@@gazwright7545 u should try east peninsular or east sabah borneo island , world paradise , heaven on earth . super clear seawater for snookling and diving . with amazing coral

I would 100% agree with this. Very much reminded me of my time in Japan. Have you travelled to anywhere similar to this?

London has modern areas as well, check out Canary Wharf.

Agree

west friendly country😊

Was a mature student in Brighton/Falmer in 2000- 2002. Like to visit Sussex countryside which includes Norman Castles, seven sisters, birling gap, cukemere haven, longman of wilminton, pooh land, bluebell railway etc. Live in the market town of Lewes. Did once a week supply teaching science too in secondary schools in Sussex. Had a great time.

100% agree with that. Such an amazing place. Where was the best beach you went to in Malaysia?

Amazing place and we will be going back. Where abouts are you from?

Noted - I thought the Petronas towers were the 2nd from what we were told. Do any of the offer a place for a coffee or cocktail at the top?

@@gazwright7545 Currently under construction is Tower M which height than PNB 118... the height is more than 700 m

Fingers crossed its finished for out next visit and we can check it out. Such a great place and thanks for the info on the buildings.@@timungcina

​@@gazwright7545PNB 118 with hotel & skydeck from 500 to 600m soon. Tower M 700m already completed it's foundation. Waiting for a green light from klcc holding to continue it. Maybe next year

@@imjuzsayin..5017There is no Tower M construction at all.

Glad that you liked it. Cambodia and Laos vlogs being edited as we speak, so if you like what you see check those out as well :)

Haha I'm more LOTR over Harry Potter, but recently re watched them so it was fresh in my mind. Who was the other KZfaqr and I'll go and check out their video?

@@gazwright7545 I apologize buddy I tried to find the video but unfortunately my old rusty brain cannot remember which one.. but I pretty sure it was a couple KZfaqrs and it was last year. I tried to used the KZfaq history function but the functions seems not like it used to be like the old day. And looking one by one of Malaysia vlog video.. just making me get sidetrack of what I actually supposed to do.. being old is tough.. Hopefully the original Malaysian guys that comments and mentioned the Harry Potter on that video still remember it and found your channel. And you know what.. from all that searching.. and now I realized that usually I will comment to the KZfaqr that travel to Malaysia.. to be super vigilant around your surroundings especially when walking on the pedestrian path that can be slippery and watch out for hidden hole (drainage cover concrete/steel) also the motorcyclist that will appear out of nowhere even on the pedestrian path. And also sometimes pedestrian path can also take you to nowhere (dead end) By the way welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾

Really appreciate you looking matey. Maybe I will have a search myself. Thanks for all the tips and from being in London, Bangkok, bicycles in Amsterdam... I always try and keep aware with the roads. It was so hot and humid we did end up getting taxi's between places. The ginger and the northerner couldn't handle it haha@@oscartangoromeo003

Amazing time and great people, we will 100% be coming back. Where shall we go next time?

​@gazwright7545 Go to Penang Island. Do your research before coming of what to do, eat etc etc that's appealing n of interest to you. Won't say more go explore Penang next.

@@Jenna-dg7yj loads of people have said this, so it’s deffo on the list for our next visit 🤝 I imagine it’s the exact opposite of KLCC?

100% agree with this! Where is home for yourself?

Thank you for the warm welcome. When we come back to Malaysia where else should we visit?

Appreciate the kind words and welcome to the team 🤝

Thanks and it was a great place. I think we are going to come back in a couple of years and explore more. Apart from Langkawi where else should we go to?

@@gazwright7545 visit National Parks, Genting Highland, Cemeron Highland, Perhentian Island, Redang Island, Borneo (Sabah and Sarawak) and many more...

Perhaps the historic city Melaka or food haven Penang and scenic islands in Sabah.

@@rd9859 food is usually top of our list so Penang sounds like it could be the one. Is there a best time of year to go there?

@@gazwright7545 Its penang… You can go whenever you want…

Amazing I will have a look at those for our next visit. I have heard good things about Langkawi - should we check this out also?

Langkawi also a great place to explore

Amazing thanks - a fair amount of people have mentioned Genting Highlands, Cameron Highlands and Penang. What do you think of these?@@jawahir1601

At GENTING they have a large amusement park indoor and outdoor plus a hotel ....a good weather.... At Cameron..you can visit a BohTea plantation...highly recommended.

@@jawahir1601 BohTea sounds amazing. My girlfriend is a huge green tea fan, so hopefully something for her there! Is there a certain time of year that it’s best to go there?

Amazing place and great people! 100% recommend for me.

Amazing place and great people. When we come back where else should we go to in Malaysia - lots of people talk about Langkawi?

The food was amazing and I loved the Hutong markets. Anywhere that you can sample different cuisines at the same time is a winner for me. What food or restaurants should we check out next time?

@gazwright7545 Go check out the popular Hokkien fried noodles at the red colored restaurant located at the intersection of Petaling Street in Chinatown. They serve some wicked noodles dishes, but avoid the Roasted duck and pork sold there though. In KL, if you do your homework well, you'll be rewarded with awesome foods at Street food prices. Enjoy!

Platinum suites. Really nice apartments, amazing view and pool. There are apartments and a hotel in the same building. The check in could do with being a little more friendly, but overall it was great. We paid around £50 a night via booking . com, so I imagine it would be cheaper direct. The price also varies depending on what days of the week you stay there. Give me a shout with any more questions

Thanks! Welcome to the team 🤝

Right up your street Shady

You see you and Snr Wrighy in a few of these cocktail bars Raymundo

Guinness and white witch for us after the Sundays game on the Costa del halliwell rd 😂

@@raybarlow9830 I had a few Guinness out there for Paddy’s day. I’ll let you be the judge of how they were… 😬

Thanks and really appreciate the message. When we come back to Malaysia where else should we go to?

@gazwright7545 since the north east monsoon is over, I guess borneo or east coast of peninsula

Perfect thanks. When is monsoon season and assume its best to visit outside of this time period? @@keangwooichoo6138

@gazwright7545 malaysia has two monsoons strangely. 1) winter monsoon - October till February. Called North East monsoon. Typically hit east coast and borneo. But can hit whole country. Very powerful. 2) south west monsoon April- June typically hit west coast

@gazwright7545 you can visit borneo sabah or east coast peninsula now. No issue. I do not know your hobby or interest. If it is jungle , wildlife and hiking mountains for sure sabah borneo. If you like islands for sure east coast peninsula and borneo sabah. We do not really talk much about our islands although they are world class. Of course we have caves as well at the unesco heritage mulu national park. One of the largest in the world. Popular diving for western tourists are sipadan, perhentian, tioman, kapalai, mabul, layang-layang atoll. The tropical jungle - one of the oldest in the world both in borneo and peninsula. Almost 3 times older than amazon. Only matched by daintree australia. World Famous reserves are: Taman negara Danum valley Imbak Maliau basin

When is this opening, as we will have to check it out next time?

@@gazwright7545 end of 2024

Amazing thanks - if you need any London recommendations at any point just give me a shout@@keangwooichoo6138

Amazing country and amazing people - I cant wait to come back again :) I think we will do Lankawi and around there. Where else would you recommend?

Noted - thanks

Virtigo or Terezza were my favourites. Heli Pad was the worst one in our option. Enjoy and if you have any other questions just give me a shout

Much appreciated thank you

Thanks and we will be coming back again soon. Apart from Langkawi where else should we go to?

@@gazwright7545 penang , malacca , pulau perhentian

Penang has been mentioned to us about 5 times now and a taxi driver insisted we go there. So that can be number 1 for out next visit. I've convinced my mum and dad to heard out to Malaysia based on our experience, so I will tell them to go to Penang. Lankawi also looks great - is this worth visiting? @@khangems

Welcome to the team. I see you support Bayern Munich, so hopefully you can do us a favour and knock Arsenal out of the Champions League :)

I went to China in 2019, but we will be coming back in around a months time. Where would you advise we visit?

@@gazwright7545 Lijiang Ancient town maybe: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g7anZ7aSuJOnXYE.htmlsi=A8ExFRxPft8gZ5eT

Hey. We went in March so I can only comment on that. It’s unbelievable hot - one of the hottest place I have ever been to. We did 10 nights and think it was 30+ every day, 35+ a few days and everyday on BBC weather was ‘feels like 40+’. As it’s a city break it often feels a lot hotter than if you are just sat by the beach with a beerwari in hand. However, KLCC aka the city centre is so so good - taxi into or across town £2/3, food/ drinks delivered to your hotel £0.50/£1.00 and everywhere has amazing air conditioning. We were just getting taxi’s door to door in places, as it is very toasty. Also, it’s worth noting I’m a northerner and my gf is ginger so we absolutely can’t handle any head in any country… 😂 You’ve gotta remember it’s a tropical climate as well. Near Singapore, just up from Indonesia and Bali. So it’s very sticky and humid as well. Soon as you are in places like shopping centres, bars, restaurants you won’t even notice it - it’s just getting around. Download the grab app which is like uber and you’ll be absolutely fine. As for the city itself I thought it was unreal. Great people, great food, rooftop bars better than London (Vertigo and Terezza were our favourites). I would just check when you are going as I believe they do have some what of a monsoon season. So you’ll have the head with crazy rain as well. Any other questions just give me a shout 😃 Gaz

Whatcha mean? :)

Hi there. Maybe what he meant was the cool people and locals refer Kuala Lumpur as KL, not the full name. ​@@gazwright7545

@@gazwright7545 Just say KL = Kuala Lumpur

100%! Way more advanced than London and reminded me a lot of Japan

We stayed at the Platinum Suites, which is the apartment side (similar to Air BnB), but they also have a hotel. Apartments floors 10-30, hotel floors 30-50. Pools etc on floor 51 and everyone has access to this. Any other questions just give me a shout

@@gazwright7545 Awesome Thanks!

London should take a leap out of Malaysias book as it’s an amazing place. Really enjoyed every aspect of it and I’ll be back again soon. Where else should we visit next time?

What food would you advise we try?

I am from Bolton near Manchester - where abouts are you from?

@@gazwright7545 I am local

Ahh cool - thank you for the warm welcome and my Cambodia Vlog will be going live next. Have a good Wednesday@@keangwooichoo6138

Platinum suites. There is hotel there and apartments. We stayed in the apartments and it was around £50 via booking . com. The price varies depending on the days of the week as a heads up.

@@gazwright7545 thanks Gaz, I only have 1 day and night in Kuala Lumpur as I am travelling back from Australia, out of most the things you do what would you put at the top of your list if you was limited on time?

Batu caves first thing in the morning then to the Petronas towers. Hutong markets were great so deffo have lunch there. Grab a cocktail in Virtigo. I feel like I want to recommend the markets and cocktail bar the most, but I guess you can get them anywhere haha. Let me know how you get on - it's such a good place @@cryptok9185

@@gazwright7545 thanks mate, was it easy enough getting from the city to the airport? can you remember how much a taxi was

@@cryptok9185 we are literally the worst backpackers, so we just get private taxi’s from the airport to the centre. It was about £10 on the way to KL via the Grab app. On the way back we paid £15 as we had to pre book it due to an early flight. Taxi’s are really reasonable in KL as I believe petrol costs are quite low. It’s about 35 mins on a clear run and an hour on a slow run with traffic. Depending on what time you land

I’m not sure what you mean? I said KL is a nice place and I could see myself living there

100% it’s an amazing place!

We had it on our list for this trip, but the visa application is crazy. They wanted us to go to the embassy for a interview and its was around £150... Are you tell me its worth it?

I don't know😔. but I think this is the lowest cost for the embassy.

Thats probably one of the most expensive visa's ever then@@sayedrahman8314

It's your wish. you come or not.

The steps are really cool to look at and going early morning with no one there was really beautiful. However, there was quite alot of rubbish on the steps and in the caves as well. I guess its really hard to keep clean with all the people going there later in the day eating and drinking. The caves have a big sponsored by Pepsi sign, so I guess so.... Not sure what the money goes to, but as you say hopefully its something around keeping them clean. Cambodia Vlog in the pipeline next, so stay tuned for more :)

@@gazwright7545 two species that caused the mess daily. Homosapiens Macaque monkeys, the mafia of the jungle They do clean it but in vain

What is that? A bar?

Haha we are on a big around the world trip and trying to visit and explore as many countries as possible. I have a severe nut and peanut allergy, so have to be super careful what I eat around here. Japenese and sushi tends to be the best for that, but I try and explore when I can. What other food and restaurants should we check out when we come back?

Here is a list of delicious Malaysian food and delicacies you shouldn't miss on your next visit. 1. Chinese dim sums (fried carrot cake, assorted flavours of dumplings, soup dumplings, buns, lotus leaf wrapped glutinous rice, assorted flavours of glutinous rice dumplings, BBQ pork & shrimp rice rolls and etc). 2. Bak kut teh (pork ribs herbal soup). 3. Nasi lemak (coconut rice with sambal chilli, fried chicken or chicken rendang). 4. Fish/ fish head curry. 5. Grilled fish with sambal chilli on banana leaf. 6. Claypot chicken rice. 7. Char kuey teow. 8. Curry laksa noodles/ meehoon/ kueh teoh. 9. Penang assam laksa. 10. Nyonya laksa & other Nyonya food and kuih (snacks). 11. Prawn noodle. 12. Salted egg/ butter cream/ black pepper crab. 13. Fried crayfish with fried oats and curry leaves. 14. Assorted flavours of steamed fish (Hongkong soy steam, Nyonya style steam, ginger & garlic steam, Teoh Cheow steam & etc). 15. Assorted tofu dishes (fried, braised, mahpo, steamed, minced seafood & etc ). 16. Satay - charcoal BBQ skewers made of different meats (chicken, beef, lamb, pork & fish). The peanut dipping comes with the satay is amazing but a shame that you are allergic to peanut. 17. Mee Bandung but some vendors may add peanut in the gravy. 18. Ramly burger. 19. Roti canai. 20. Tropical fruits like durian, rambutan, mangosteen, jackfruit, nangka & etc. 21. Shaved ice desserts (ABC ice kacang, Chendol & Bubur Cha Cha). 22. Drinks like white coffee, teh tarik (foamy milk tea), Iced Dinosaur Milo (iced chocolate drink with extra chocolate powder on top), iced sour dried prune lime juice, iced balonglong juice and iced blended coconut juice with coconut ice cream. 23. Potato, sardines or chicken & egg curry puff. 24. Popiah. 25. Fried fritters (fried banana, sweet potato, jack fruit, durian & rice cake). 26. Fruits rojak (a fruit salad with prawn paste which may be a bit strong to European people).

What does that mean?

Just KL...we dont say Kuala Luumpur...jst use d abreviation...

Ahhh yeah gotcha - KL :) @@hamrabeahkamarun8720

Which part? The Hutong markets was a mix of pork and duck, but I might have mixed them up in the commotion haha

I am extremely allergic to peanuts and all nuts, so I have to be super careful what I eat. Sushi/ Japenese is usually the best bet for me + its my favourite cuisine :)

Why not? You get some awesome Japanese food here in Malaysia.

@@mjo750 both the Hutong markets and the restaurant had amazing sushi so I can vouch for that 🤝

​@@mjo750Right? We have so many Japanese doing videos on why they moved to Malaysia already, and availability of decent Japanese food is a big factor of it. A Japanese hairdresser moved here from Australia since Japanese food there can't compete with what he could found in Malaysia (not to mention the price, too) and Japan's own superstar, Gackt, also mentioned Japanese food as one of the big reason why he chose here over Malta or any other country.

Clarke Kent? That the vibe we are going for?

Whatcha mean?

Thanks - where else should we go to in KL?

Thank you for the warm welcome and we will be back again soon. Apart from Langkawi, where else should we go to next time?

U can enjoy Genting Highlands... Cameron Highlands and have some Hot Tea right away from the tea farm... U can go enjoy the waterfall in Perak, Pahang & if u ❤️ challenge I recommend u Taman Negara in Pahang... If u ❤️ beach life i recommend u Pulau Redang, Pulau Perhentian in Terengganu, Pulau Aur, Pulau Tioman in Johor... Actually so many beautiful places u can enjoy in Malaysia... It's luxury & beautiful places with affordable for your money... U CAN EXPLORE EVERYTHING WITH YOUR POUND STERLING IN MALAYSIA 🥳

Oh wow - thank you so much for all the great insight and places to check out. We will be coming back in the next couple of years and I have already convinced my mum and dad to come! I agree with you around the mixture of luxury and beauty. Kuala Lumpur is far more advanced and technology focussed than London. It very much reminded me of Japan. I think next on the list is to check out some of the amazing beaches you mentioned and the highlands. My gf is a huge tea fan, so she will be happy to hear about the Highlands. If you ever head to London drop me a message and hopefully I can return the favour and recommend you some places@@udeenadamar2083

Lovely stuff - will have a research and check it out 😎
