Detailed itinerary

Built on an acre of elevated land in Bukit Rotan, Kuala Selangor, Sri Shakti Temple rises majestically as a unique beacon of Hindu architectural excellence in Malaysia.

Stop 2

Bukit Melawati, where you’ll get views of a hilltop lighthouse, and see a thriving population of silver leaf monkeys, long-tailed macaques, and tropical birds.

Visit a nearby fishing village for a Malaysian-style seafood buffet, then continue to Kuala Selangor Firefly Park, a launch point on the Selangor River. Travel along the river in a quiet, motorist boat so and kelip-kelip, and watch them glow in the evening air. Discover the fireflies’ mysterious synchronicity: though each firefly flashes at its own rhythm, the lights slowly align until thousands of bugs light up in unison, and coastal Malaysia is considered the best place in the world to see the phenomenon.
