Fantastic 3 days at Sepang! VIP Village passes allow access on Friday to the circuit and paddock area. Saturday (Silver) and Sunday (Gold) passes allow access to the VIP Village, situated on the first floor above the garages, with viewing from large windows within the room or from the roof. There is free access to the paddock all day on both days and a pit lane walk on each day too. You are welcomed by VIP Village staff who show you to the table you will sit at each day, Tables are set for 10. The room is well air conditioned and is open from 0830 to 1630, providing breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks, along with a complimentary bar service throughout the day. The food is of a high standard and service attentive. TV screens are well positioned around the room and Event Programmes are provided on Sunday. There is the opportunity to win prizes from scratch cards upon arrival each day. The environment Is relaxed and friendly and there is the opportunity to meet new people, especially those at your table. We had a brilliant group at Table 14! The Sepang circuit is fantastic. It offers great viewing of the track, is well organised with lots of stalls and activities and also provides buses to and from KL. We would highly recommend a visit and if you are going, why not treat yourself to the VIP Village! The Motogp racing, of course, speaks for itself - FABULOUS! Last, but certainly not least, a special mention to Stefano Abate from the VIP Village team who took superb care of us. Not just escorting those of us who won Moto2 pit lane wall prizes and a grid walk prior to the Asia cup, but for answering our continuous and numerous questions -Thank you!

Saga Hill Trial

Reviewed By csChai - Malaysia, null

There are a few trails to hike up Bukit Saga from Taman Saga. Trail A and C are the popular trails taken by hikers. Trail B is now closed due to construction works. The trails up this hill are of moderate difficulty and they are well-marked and well-trodden. If you are new to this hill, just follow the crowd on any weekend. There is an open space at the top of Bukit Saga with a big noticeboard, rest huts, hammocks and a makeshift cooking area. The hilltop area is well maintained and clean. Alternatively, we can hike to Bukit Saga from the neighbouring hill, Bukit Putih, which is more commonly called Bukit Ah Pek. Hike up one of the Bukit Ah Pek trails till we reach the Bukit Ah Pek hilltop (Station 6). From there, proceed to Bukit Saga. This trail is much longer than the Saga A and C trails. For the more adventurous (and stronger) hikers, we can hike to the Bukit Saga waterfall. One of the clearer and easier trails to the waterfall is from Station 5 along the Bukit Ah Pek trail. Please take note that the last part of the trail just before reaching the waterfall is quite steep and slippery due to soil erosion. Happy Hiking!

Sky Mirror

Reviewed By JulianaSaujana - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

It was a last minute decision to join Sky Mirror tour with a local company called Fun Life since we were on a day trip to Sekinchan. This decision turned out to be the highlight of the day. Eric from Fun Life was very prompt with his replies and facilitated our trip. The boat captain ensure that the ride to and from Sasaran Beach was not only safe but exciting. It was fascinating to behold the vast sand bar appearing gradually in front of our very eyes, in the middle of Malacca Straits. The experience was nothing short of amazing. Our entourage of five would like to thank you, Ah Seng the photographer for his patience and creativity during the photo session and also the boat captain ( sorry, forgot his name) for ensuring that the tour was leisurely paced and enjoyable.......it made our day !????

Batu Caves

These impressive limestone caves are also used for Hindu festivals and pilgrimages.

Reviewed By NandanRao - Bengaluru, India

Climbing the colorful 272 steps, one reaches the huge cave - also housing the temple of Lord Murugan. The cave is amazing, very tall and spacious and very cool even in the hot Malaysian weather. The stair climb is a good workout with lot of photo stops and monkey encounters! Once reaching the top, you enter the large cave with various temples. This being one of the oldest temples in Malaysia is holy to Hindus, To enter the temple area, you need to remove footwear. The cave itself is very large, the rock and limestone formations are amazing to see and the entire area is surprisingly clean. Beware of the mosquitoes in the cave. It would be advisable to carry an insect repellent - especially after the perspiring 272 step climb! The other interesting part of this area is the Ramayana Cave. The story of Ramayana depicted via colorful idols is thoroughly enjoyable Tips: 1. Carry an insect repellent (mosquitoes) 2. Be careful of monkeys, if they see anything colorful in your hands they just grab 3. Go early in the morning to beat the crowds and sun 4. Visit the Ramayana cave (5RM per person)

FRIM -Forest Research Institute of Malaysia

Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife on the nature trails. Then enjoy a bird's-eye-view of the trees by crossing the Canopy Walkway. This unique conservation facility is located 20 kilometers from Kuala Lumpur.

Reviewed By Travel_V0rtex

Johnson, our guide, was very knowledgeable and interesting, explaining all about seed dispersal, plant species, rainforest ecology and the local history of the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM). The hike was great (although definitely bring mosquito repellant and wear long clothing and hiking boots for protection) and we learned a lot about the different species of trees and that the FRIM is a completely man-made rejuvenated forest of over 1,500 acres which used to be open-cut tin mines. Our favourite part of the hike was observing the "Crown Shyness" - a beautiful mosaic caused by a mysterious natural phenomenon where the leaves of the canopy layers "shy" away from each other. You need to book a guide in advance if you want this experience. We also did Batu Caves in the morning and then tagged on FRIM in the afternoon which is doable for a whole day trip.
