Itinerary for Malaysia-Singapore-Indonesia Trip 2014

I've done, by far, my most complicated travel to date, that is the three-country, one-week trip that together with my travel buddies, we've done last February, 2014. Now here's the itinerary we've had for that trip. I've revised some of it because some activities we've done and some are not due to factors that are unexpected.

The pool area of Colmar Tropicale

Day 1     Feb. 16      8:00 p.m.       Manila Departure
             Feb. 17     12:00 a.m.      Kuala Lumpur Arrival
                              7:00 a.m.      Breakfast / Visit Petronas Tower
                             10:00 a.m.     Berjaya Times Square
                                                 Shuttle to Colmar Tropicale
                              3:00 p.m.      Check-in Colmar Tropicale
                              3:30 p.m.      Free time / Rest / Sightseeing
                              7:00 p.m.      Dinner

We've arrived at midnight at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and from there, we took a bus to the KL grand terminal. Since most establishments and the terminal itself were closed, we did what the locals do: find any cafes open, in our case, McDonalds, and there we could have some shut-eye. Many locals were there sleeping, too, waiting for daylight and the staff don't care! Awesome! Save some money from hotels.



Day 2      Feb. 18       7:00 a.m.        Breakfast
                               8:00 a.m.        Japanese Garden / Animal Park
                              12:00 p.m.       Check-out Colmar / Shuttle back to KL
                               2:00 p.m.        Check-in at Hostel Cosmopolitan
                               3:00 p.m.        Batu Caves
                               5:00 p.m.        Bukit Bintang, Petaling Street,
                                                    Petronas Towers by night
                               
Since it was raining and the weather seems to be getting bad, we've skipped the activities from 3:00 p.m. onwards and just settled in and rest at the hostel. We can't do anything when it comes to Mother Nature.


Day 3       Feb. 19       3:00 a.m.        Shuttle to KLCC Airport
                                8:00 a.m.        Kuala Lumpur Departure
