Singapore and Malaysia: An Easy Two-Country Holiday
2 min read
Singapore and Malaysia sit close together and make an excellent pairing for a first trip to Southeast Asia, with clean cities, famous food and a mix of cultures.
Singapore highlights
Gardens by the Bay, Marina Bay, Sentosa and the hawker centres of Chinatown and Little India are good places to start. Public transport is simple and efficient.
Kuala Lumpur and beyond
Kuala Lumpur offers the Petronas Towers, Batu Caves and excellent food. Add Langkawi or Penang for beaches and heritage streets.
Moving between the two
You can fly in about an hour or travel overland by bus or train. Overland suits those who want to see more; flying suits tight schedules.
- Both countries are humid year-round; carry light, breathable clothes and a compact umbrella.
- Check immigration forms and visa requirements ahead of time. Rules, entry requirements, weather and prices change, so confirm the latest details with official sources before you book.
