How Can I Travel To Malaysia Now
Now that you are ready to go to Malaysia, the first and most important step is getting a passport. You need one if you will be traveling to Malaysia in the future.
Passports are available in either countries or sub-national identities. International passports offer you the ability to travel to many countries, while national passports only allow you entry into Malaysia.
International and sub-national national identities are different and cannot be confused for each other. A national identity shows who you are as a person, while an international passport can be used by more than one country.
Sub-national national identities can offer tax breaks or reduce your taxes when traveling, depending on the country.
Make travel plans
Now is the time to make your travel plans. Plan your route, figure out your gas and travels cost, and keep track of your supply. There is no going back once you take these steps.
Do not make plans just before departure due to lack of supplies. You need to have enough to last you through the trip.have enough to last you through the trip. Have a plan for how much food and clothing you will need on each stop along the way. This will help avoid being unprepared while in Malaysia.
Have a plan for what kind of transportation you will use during your stay such as using a taxi, using public transportation, or taking a tour if available.
Book your flight
Now that you have an idea of where you would like to go, it is time to book your flight. There are two main ways to go to Malaysia now – as a tourist or as a visitor.
As a tourist, you can go through a tour company and purchase your trip through them. They will pick you up and guide you on your visit to the country. Their cost can be around USD150-200 per person, depending on how many days of travel they include.
As a visitor, you can come alone or with family or friends. You can either come as a tourist or as a visitor – neither changes anything about how you travel or the countries you visit. You can fly directly to Kuala Lumpur from several cities in the United States, Canada, and Europe.
Either way, there are plenty of places to see in Malaysia and around its capital city, Kuala Lumpur.
Book your hotel
If you are travelling to Malaysia by air, you should book your hotel room as soon as you arrive at your destination. If you are staying in a hotel within the capital city of Kuala Lumpur, do not forget to book your room in advance because places sell out of rooms on weekend nights.
If you are travelling by train or plane, then stay up-to-date by checking the availability of rooms on line and making sure that it is a confirmed booking.
If there is no room available, check out some local hotels in order to learn the service and amenities they offer. You can also ask the staff at the hotels if there is an alternative accommodation nearby that could cater your needs.
Remember that while staying at a good quality hotel will help host an enjoyable trip, it will also cost more.
Pack essentials
While the middle east is a beautiful place to visit, it can be challenging to pack enough things for a week-long stay. For example, you would need a full size bedding set, two pairs of shoes, and a small bag or package of clothes.
Many times in the region, people do not have access to washing machines or refrigerators so it is important to have some clean clothing and bedding that has been cleaned and/or put away.
During your stay, you will want to pack your travel documents and phone as well as any important notes that may need to be answered when reaching out to tour companies or arriving in Kuala Lumpur or Ban Khaifun.
You may also wish to bring your passport and visa while in Malaysia so you do not have to travel back out if you leave the country. It is also helpful to have an emergency kit should something happen during your trip.
Apply for a visa
Once you have determined your travel plan, it is time to apply for a visa in your country of origin or in Malaysia. Theoretically, you can travel to Malaysia as soon as the visa arrives in your mailbox, but it might take a little longer due to the process.
Theoretically not technically possible, but doable is to apply for a visa prior to arriving in Malaysia by traveling through Paris or Zurich and receiving your visa on the other end. This would require some quick planning and communicating with immigration officials ahead of time, however.
As of this writing, France does not recognize Trump’s presidency so Malaysian immigration may turn you away at the border if you attempt this approach. If that happens, then you would need to go through the process again at another embassy or consulate in your country of origin or in Malaysia!
Alternatively, you could apply for your visa while still overseas and then return home to obtain it upon arrival in Malaysia.
Have fun!
When you get to the point where you want to travel, then it is time to have fun! There are certain things you must do while in Malaysia that you should not miss out on.
Visiting temples, seeing local life, and experiencing Malaysian cuisine are all part of the trip that make it special. You will never forget your first visit to a temple or food if you keep up with your travels.
Local culture is a way of life for the majority of people in Malaysia. You will be part of something bigger than yourself than just going to see them will do it.
Having fun is key when traveling. You will be more focused on the importance of each trip than how much you spend, but spending time with friends and enjoying yourself is important.
Being aware of our country’s boundaries makes it easier to enjoy our country and its people.
Take pictures
Never forget your camera at anytime, anywhere! You can upload pictures directly to your phone or computer, and if something important happens while you are away, you can take pictures during the trip or afterwards.
Using a smartphone or computer, go ahead and take pictures of everything. Even if you are not famous for your amazing photography skills, you can still use this as a way to travel around the world and teach people about Malaysia and Indonesia in the process.
By uploading these pictures to your website or posting them on social media, you have an even better chance of finding someone to take these pictures for you.
These pictures will really help return home if anything unfortunate happens while you are traveling. They also may help save someone’s life should something happen on the trip if nobody is available to photograph it.
Write about it
If you are planning a trip to Malaysia, it is important to have some knowledge about the health conditions there. You can help yourself or others by being informed and having the necessary medical supplies and/or transportation on hand.
Traveling to Southeast Asia or as the name implies, in Vietnam and Cambodia, is also worth mentioning due to their annual festivals. They all have different rules about age, maturity, and religious freedom when going onto the streets to celebrate.
For example, in Phnom Penh’s Old City district, you can find some very strict Christian neighborhoods with no alcohol or non-vegetarian foods allowed during festivals. In these areas, festivalgoers tend to stick to small groups of friends and food preferences are kept quiet.
