MALAYSIA | Plan your dream trip independently
In this video guide dedicated to organizing a trip to Malaysia, we'll cover all the information you need to plan every aspect of your trip independently. After a quick overview of the practical and logistical aspects, we'll analyze a suggested itinerary to be completed over the course of approximately three weeks.
PHONE SIM INFORMATION
I didn't cover this in the video, but it shouldn't be a cause for concern: once you arrive at the airport in Kuala Lumpur (or other Malaysian airports), you'll find several stands selling SIM cards. The prices are so low that it's really not worth spending time searching for the cheapest operator or, even worse, postponing the purchase until you leave the airport just to save €1-2 (if you're lucky). Also, keep in mind that you'll likely need internet access to contact a Grab driver to take you to the city center. Before purchasing, just make sure the plan you activate covers the duration of your stay and includes enough GB of internet for your needs. I personally purchased a SIM card from CelcomDigi and had a great experience throughout Malaysia.
TRAVEL INSURANCE
When traveling outside Europe, it's always a good idea to take out insurance to cover any unexpected expenses.
