An underrated peaceful fishing village rich in mangroves, that’s the best way to describe Kuala Sepetang. A coastal town in northwestern Perak, Kuala Sepetang is also known as Port Weld. So if you hear someone referring to it as Port Weld, be informed that it is also Kuala Sepetang.

Of course, old railway signage is not the only thing you can find on this affordable tour. Since this is a fishing village, visitors can tour around it on a boat with a guided tour! You’ll learn a bit about the history of the fishing village and explanations of fishing techniques. The boat tour does not end here because you also get to enjoy 🦅eagle watching and a visit to the fish farm!

Also, as Malaysians, we can’t forget about food. Kuala Sepetang has mouth-watering must-tries, including the famous Mee Udang Mak Jah, Hor Ka Sai (Kopi O + Milo) and Ah Thai Curry Mee. The food here is generally affordable and can cost as low as RM6-7 per meal, although there are also pricier foods.

One of the most interesting bridges is the Kampung Jawa Bridge Melaka, also known as the Ghost Bridge. Why is the name so 😨scary-leh? According to locals, many Chinese people were beheaded during the Japanese occupation and had their heads hung on the bridge. This definitely sends chills down your 🥶spine.

Alternatively, if you don’t want to sit through the 45mins tour that runs 9km along the river, you can disembark at one of the 14 pit stops and explore the UNESCO World Heritage city on your own! You can utilise the cruise like how you would take a bus. Malacca city is populated with tourists, so the road can get a bit congested, and taking the cruise can be a refreshing experience. Not only that, but you can also enjoy the cool breeze while on the cruise.

Discover KL’s Hidden Gems With Traworld’s Guided KL Heritage Walk

If you think you know all about KL just because you were born and bred in KL? Think again. Kuala Lumpur is the city centre and also the capital city of Malaysia. It is also one of the fastest-growing cities in Asia. With the 2nd tallest building in the world, Menara 118 (the tallest building in Malaysia) and other skyscrapers, KL city is literally a concrete jungle. Seeing the development of KL, it goes without saying that the result today came from a long way back.

Being a major tin mining town in the 19th century, Kuala Lumpur went through the era of Japanese occupation and British administration. Under the British administration, many Chinese were brought into KL to work in the tin mine. This resulted in Chinese settlements in the town and further development of Kuala Lumpur. As a result of that, KL has many skyscrapers. Despite that, many buildings built at that time still remain today.

Explore Gunung Brinchang (Cameron Highlands)

(Under RM100) 6 Affordable Tours in Malaysia: Mossy Forest

It’s time to escape the hustle and bustle of the city to enjoy the beauty of nature. The first thing that you must do at Gunung Brinchang is to hike the Mossy Forest. The forest is just like what's suggested by its name…mossy. That is because it is constantly in a high-humidity environment. The Mossy Forest is at the highest elevation of Cameron Highlands and because of that, it is always shrouded by clouds and blanketed by mists making it look like a magical forest out of a storybook. 

(Under RM100) 6 Affordable Tours in Malaysia: BOH Tea Garden

When you are at Gunung Brinchang, don’t forget to visit the BOH Tea Garden and enjoy a cuppa at the cafe! You can sip on a cup of freshly brewed BOH tea and eat some ?sweet cakes while enjoying the beautiful panoramic view.

Besides the BOH Tea Garden, there is also a 🦋Butterfly farm and 🍓Strawberry farms. This would make a perfect budget weekend trip with your family and friends.

Lastly, It is highly recommended to hire a 🚙4WD from a tour agency (like us, ehem🤭) because the road is pretty bumpy, or in the case of the Mossy Forest, to carry you up to the entrance of the forest. This is because visitors are not allowed to drive up to the Mossy Forest’s entrance. Alternatively, you can hike up to the Mossy Forest entrance before hiking the forest itself, but that is if you are athletic enough. 

Entrance Fee
Mossy Forest: RM10
Butterfly Farm: RM10
Strawberry Farm: RM10
