Be the one with amazing holiday story to tell.
Hike across a 130 million years old rainforest that escaped the last Ice Age. Soak in an uncharted waterfall. Eat food you can hardly pronounce. And the best part is - do everything with the comfort of knowing there’s a friendly local expert watching over you.
This unique 1 day safari 4WD and trekking trail will take one to see nature’s best unsung secrets - notably, caves, cascading waterfall and intriguing flora that never fails to whet the appetite of a nature loving traveller. Coast past quaint Orang Asli tribal villages and the best part - give your tastebuds an adventure with specially prepared “jungle food”!
Bukit Kinta, a stone throw away from Ipoh, Malaysia, is known for its Orang Asli tribal grounds and untouched tropical must-sees. Being situated at the foothill of Titiwangsa Range also blessed the hidden vista with multiple waterfalls and pristine rivers that gush downhill to joint the mighty Perak River. Undoubtedly, few travellers have heard about this place, but with all the unspoiled scenery spreading out before you, you’d wickedly want the place to remain a secret for a long long time.
