Tours to Malaysia from Almaty are a chance to discover one of Southeast Asia's most vibrant countries, with its skyscrapers, tropical islands, and ancient jungles. Malaysia astonishes with its remarkable blend of Malay, Chinese, and Indian cultures, magnificent beaches, and modern infrastructure at affordable prices.
Why choose Malaysia
- A wealth of experiences — in a single trip you can see the futuristic Petronas Towers, relax on the white sands of Langkawi, walk through the ancient jungles of Borneo, and sample dishes from three Asian cuisines.
- Visa-free travel — Kazakhstan citizens don't need a visa to visit Malaysia for up to 30 days, making this destination exceptionally convenient.
- Affordable prices — accommodation, dining, and entertainment in Malaysia cost considerably less than in neighboring Singapore or Thailand, while the quality of service is comparable.
- Tropical climate year-round — air temperatures at Malaysian resorts never drop below +27 °C, and the warm sea allows swimming practically any time of year.
- Borneo's unique nature — orangutans, proboscis monkeys, the rafflesia (the world's largest flower), and some of the oldest tropical forests on the planet, dating back over 130 million years.
Popular Malaysian destinations
Kuala Lumpur
Malaysia's capital, a city of striking contrasts. The 452-meter Petronas Twin Towers, the Batu Caves with their giant statue of the god Murugan, colorful Indian and Chinese quarters, and enormous shopping malls with prices that pleasantly surprise Kazakhstani travelers. Kuala Lumpur is the perfect starting point for exploring the country and an excellent shopping destination.
Langkawi
An archipelago of 99 islands in the Andaman Sea — Malaysia's premier beach resort. A duty-free zone, the SkyCab cable car with its glass Sky Bridge 660 meters above sea level, mangrove forests, and the pristine beaches of Cenang and Tengah — Langkawi offers the perfect balance of beach relaxation and adventure. The island is especially popular with families thanks to its calm sea and gentle entry into the water.
Penang
An island known as the gastronomic capital of Malaysia and all of Southeast Asia. The historic center of George Town, with its colonial architecture and street art, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Malay, Chinese, and Indian cuisines blend here, and Penang's street food is considered the best in the region. The island also draws visitors with beautiful temples and a national park with a wild beach.
Borneo (Sabah and Sarawak)
The Malaysian portion of the world's third-largest island — a true paradise for ecotourism lovers. Climbing Mount Kinabalu (4,095 m), watching orangutans at the Sepilok rehabilitation center, diving at Sipadan island, and walking the canopy bridges high in the treetops — Borneo delivers experiences impossible to find at an ordinary resort.
When to go
Malaysia is a year-round destination, though the optimal season varies by region. For the west coast (Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi, Penang), the best time is December through March, when rainfall is minimal and temperatures hold at +30...+33 °C. The east coast and Borneo are most comfortable from March to October. The sea stays at +27...+30 °C all year, so the swimming season in Malaysia never ends.
