What do we do there?

Malaysia is home to a Chinese, Indian, and Malay community that offers an extraordinary cultural diversity! In each city, just a few streets apart, you’ll be immersed in Chinatown, then Little India, passing through the Muslim quarter with its magnificent mosques!

GILI'S favorite: George Town, a city full of color, blending colonial, Chinese, and Hindu architecture, a fabulous world on the island of Penang!

We enjoy the paradisiacal islands and crystal-clear water!

Take a boat and spend a few days on the Perhentian or Tioman Islands, discovering a preserved environment, crystal-clear water, deserted beaches lined with palm trees, and colorful fish. Let yourself be rocked by this unique atmosphere in a dreamlike setting!

Take the opportunity to grab your mask and snorkel and explore the spectacular marine life just a few meters from the shore!

We discover exceptional fauna and flora!
