I would not believe anyone who claims that two weeks are too long for Malaysia. I spent a whole month with my family there, and was only able to scratch what the west side of Malaysia can offer.

Why you want to visit for 7 days only ? Try for minimum 2 weeks consideraing air ticket expense . I will suggest you following interary.

Day 1 :

Travel from doha to Kulalampur , TAKE CONNECTING FLIGHT FROM KL to Langkawi . Stay Langkawi for atleast 3 days . It is beautiful island .

Day 4: Travel from Langkawi to Penang .

Stay in Penang for 3 days . There are so many places to visit near peneng . you can take car rental for visit all places or city bus tour . dont forget to visit KEK LOCK TEMPLE

Day 8 : Travel from Penang to Kulalampur . dont go to kulalampur city . After landing in KL go straight to Genting high land . Children will enjoy there stay there for 3 days .

1) U can visit malaysia tourism board at www.tourism.gov.my

2) a) City centre will be Kuala Lumpur. b) historical place will be Melaka. c) Hill like Genting Highland and Cameron Highland d) Island like Penang and Langkawi. - pls visit langkawi geopark. take cable car. very2 interesting. don't miss this place. Event through I'm Malaysian, I just visited there December last year on vacation. All of there are actually consider as west of Penisular Malaysia. If you have more budget and time you can spend at east of Penisular malaysia in Pahang, Kuala Terengganu and Kelantan. (this area is not so busy). And if you still have more budget than fly to Borneo Island- East Malaysia (Sabah-mountain of Kinabalu and Sarawak-Niah cave, etc). National language will be Bahasa Melayu and second language will be english. other language used by some of Malaysia Chinese-cantonise, hok kian, mandarin,etc while ethnic Malaysian Indian - Tamil, hindi (very rare)but all of them are able to speak and understand 'bahasa melayu' or malay language.Happy holiday.

3) Don't go on November, December - this is raining season.

4)Pls check and get advise for the concern party since H1N1 is spread around the world. If you ask me personally, i will choose to stay at home and avoid or minimize go to public with crowd people and kept the money, planned trip for the next year. If you still want to procced with the holiday trip than pls follow the advise from health department on the H1N1.

5) Again, happy holiday. you choose the right distination. All malaysia like green. I like and want to be there for the all time but money was dragged me to Qatar.

this was already discussed in few topic before..use the search box on top right.

Malaysia is a very nice place to visit. its also safe & very good specially with your family. Kuala Lumpur is not very big, u can use Monorail to go around places as other road transport may consume lot of time due to heavy traffic. Don't forget to visit the Genting Highlands & test a Cable Car above 200 million years old forest. :)

Kuala Lumpur Menara, Aquaria, KLCC, Petronas, Bird's Park are some places you will find very interesting.

i have already posted below details beofore...so m juz copying again for ur reference..

----------------------------------------

-----mountains and highland resorts-------

- Genting Highland (city of entertainment, its a very cool place located around 50 km northeast of Kuala Lumpur at 2000 meter above sea level )

- Cameroon highland (the best place to escape the city's heat in Malaysia, cactus garden and bee farm would be a place of interest for kids)

- other hill resort are fraser hill and bukit tinggi (though m not quite sure about it coz i have never been there)

------beaches and islands-----

- Langkawi Island (one of the best place and island i have ever been to, easiest way to reach here is thru a flight from KL, places of interest would be eagle square, langkawi cable car, cenang beach, btw its a duty free island ), its a great place for beach life with lots of sight seeing.

- other beaches and islands to visits are

- pangkor island

- tioman island

- penand island

- perhentian island

these islands are warm,calm and with crystal clear water, it offers various water based activities like snorkeling, diving, and has been a favorite spots with expatriates in malaysia and as well as with locals.

btw, i haven't mentioned anything about KL (short for Kuala Lumpur) coz m sure must have already gathered info abt it.

but still, taking a hop on hopp off bus (specially made for tourist) is a gud option to see the places quickly,

-places in KL: batu caves, petronas twin towers (KLCC), KL tower (it offers the best view of KL), china town, bintang walk, and do visit Putrajaya, its newly built federal territory, putra mosque which is built across putrajaya lake is one of the most marvelous architecture in malaysia.

i hope this will help.

Cheers,
