How long is the drive from Melaka to Johor Bahru?
The direct drive from Melaka to Johor Bahru is 132 mi (212 km), and should have a drive time of 2 hrs 5 mins in normal traffic.
If you’re going on a road trip from Melaka to Johor Bahru, we did the research for you and compiled some great stops along the way — with top places to visit like Malacca River and The Huskitory, or the ever-popular Freeport A'Famosa Outlet.

The Freeport A'Famosa Outlet is a large shopping mall located just outside the AFamosa Resort in Alor Gajah, Johor. It features a wide range of international fashion, sports and accessory brands at great prices.
Nice decoration. Nice place to hang out and take photos. There was also places to eat. I like to come here even though there was nothing to buy. But always ended up buying something as the prices were cheap compared buying outside.

Interesting place and concept, very similar to premium outlets I have been overseas. Great that parking is free, so you don't have to worry it. Good idea to check out the shop directory on their website before heading there so that you get an idea of what is available and interesting there. #FAO6thAnniversaryLuckyDraw

Far from town area. Some sports shops are worth going. There is also some food options there but recommended to have meals elsewhere before heading there. A good 3 hours should be sufficient. The coach airways is such a long queue I didn’t bother.

Drop by shopping for family. This place not much store. The best sport outlet was Puma sport outlet here. The boutique got many varieties and sizes to select. We brought in total 4 sport shoes with 50% off deals. The next we visit Coach outlet. It takes about 5 minutes of queues enter the flight. It do have many photos spot for everyone to take photos. Inside the boutique do not have many selection and the sales item was limited.
They do have coffee corner but not open for public only for customer.
If they selling the coffee in the flight that will be perfect.

If you happen to be in Malacca, don't forget to visit this malaca premier outlet. Its quite small compare to other premium outlets but it is interesting. We enjoy every moment of it. The prices are affordable and they offer lots of discount. Great value. Dont missed it. 👍👍👍

If u drive along the road to enter this place, from the outside look, it kinda big place, but when u step inside and take a walk, the only premium about this place is the coach brand which is inside the coach airway planes OUTSIDE of the main building. The rest is only common local brand. Selling with lower price. Most of the mixed brand sport shop here has very unfriendly staff, no greeting, ddnt assist you nor ask you if u need help finding your stuff, they prefer chit chatting among them rather than give service to the customer and mostly they sell old stock item. This will be my first and the last im visiting this place.

great open air mall with lotsa branded stores. but lack of eating place. need to improve on number of eateries. the toilet was great, very clean and smells good. need to bring a mini fan if you ae here during a hot day. because the weather is scorching hot. overall great outlet need more eateries.

This outlet show offer item, but when you check the price is 70% more expensive than we buy near our area. Not many choices too. We walk around 45 mins just buy some fried chicken from Taiwan Shilin as our snack before dinner.
The roof covered were not well designed. You have to turn a big round to go to the opposite shop during raining day.
The tiles on the floor were peel off or uneven so very dangerous for senior citizen to walk alone.

The place is quite rundown with some units are empty. Mostly selling local brands, with international brands missing 🙃. The only saving grace is the Coach outlet which is in a airplane. They even has a cafe which serves complimentary coffee when purchases are made.

Few branded but still, it was nice to see common brand selling at lower price. Love the pond area n simple water fountain. Well maintained the place were clean.
Need a bigger signage to direct the traffic aound the carpark. I find it lacking badly.. a "masuk" n "keluar" placing at the right place will deter future problem once it has a huge event.

Nestled at the border of Melaka, adjacent to A Famosa, this place boasts a warm and inviting atmosphere. However, while the outlet is welcoming, the array of shops falls a bit short of expectations. The absence of official Adidas and Nike outlets, among other brands commonly found at places like Mitsui Outlet, was disappointing. Nevertheless, the mall's design is noteworthy and adds to its appeal.
A standout feature, though, is the Coach airplane outlet located outside the mall, offering a unique and appealing shopping experience amidst the broader selection.

Freeport A Famosa is made just like JPO, Design Village, or Genting Premium Outlet. The theme is shopping; I can't remember what. This place is 30 km from Melaka city. So if you want to go shopping, plan early. Coming here may take a lot of your time, just for travel (1 hour from the city center). The choice of brands here is not as great as in JPO or Genting. And the brands here are brands for the middle class. So if you are looking for a high-end brand, you will be disappointed. Anyway, this place has 70 stores with brands like Levi's, Puma, Sketchers, Kickers, and Hush Puppies. The discount is up to 80%. But if you have ever been to a premium outlet abroad, you will know that the prices of goods at Freeport A Famosa are not that cheap—eeven after the discount. So our suggestion is, before coming, compare the prices of goods at your local mall. And come at certain times (Chinese New Year, Christmas, etc.).

Decided to drop by from our road trip to KL and to check out what this premium outlet has to offered. The main attraction would be the coach boutique converted from an airplane. Had our lunch at Peranakan place. The food is quite decent, price is alright, atmosphere is cosy. The chendol was not too sweet which is nice. But retail stores can’t match those in Genting premium outlets.

Great outlet but lack of people. No shopping feel. Plenty parking. You can feel the heat outdoor. Management do something.... Install mist or fan leh!! Limited food stall. I think less then 5. No fast food here, but restaurant. Coach airways is the only unique here. Surprisingly have charging station for EV.

Personally, I feel surprised that the Freeport has opened in Alor Gajah. I think it's been more than 5 years since I last visited this area. Finally, there's something to shop for at night here.

I recently visited the Free Port A'Famosa Outlet, and while it offers a great blend of interest and shopping opportunities, there are a few aspects to consider. The outlet boasts a variety of cafes, restaurants, and sports outlets, making it a diverse destination for both tourists and locals.
One noticeable drawback, however, is the lack of attraction and marketing awareness. During my visit, I noticed that there weren't as many tourists or even locals as I would have expected. This suggests that more effort is needed to promote this hidden gem and its offerings.
The selection of stores is impressive, with a wide range of brands and products available at discounted prices. However, without proper marketing and attractions to draw people in, the outlet may remain underutilized.
I hope that the local tourism authorities recognize the potential of Free Port A'Famosa Outlet and take steps to rejuvenate it as a must-visit destination. With the right marketing strategies and perhaps some additional attractions or events, this outlet could become a thriving hub for both shopping and entertainment. Overall, it's a promising place that just needs a bit more attention to reach its full potential.

The Malacca River is a beautiful waterway with many attractions for tourists, such as the murals that line the riverbanks and the vibrant nightlife. The river cruise is a great way to see all of the sights without having to worry about crowds.
We went to Malacca to celebrate Chinese new year, just before corona hit Malaysia. We using the bus and arrive in Malacca bus station, then using another bus to reach the Malacca down town.
The scenery in Malacca is wonderful. Plenty historical building and attractions. Food stalls also everywhere.

The Malacca River Walk is best experienced at night. It is the most interesting and beautiful feature of this historical town. Need to spruce up cleanliness, and ensure there 's no smell from the drainage and litter bins in some places along the shore.

Melaka river is the best night tourist spot in Melaka. Once known as the 'Venice of the East'.😊 Melaka River Cruise let me explore heritage views across the river. There are some new shopping mall and old shops, so good place to buy souvenir, food items, and artifacts. The river bank is full of restaurants, hotels, Cafes, shops. It's not that far from KL.

I have visited Melaka a number of times. It was one of our family's vacation spots. The river was something I had never given much thought to until I watched the movie Entrapment a few years ago. My curiosity was piqued, and I paid a little more attention on the river's beauty this time. The river is most beautiful to behold in the evening when there are boats selling passes and night lights along the river. A shot stroll in the evening while taking in the scenery of some of the historical buildings along the river.
Date visited: 8th January 2024

The Huskitory is a pet cafe located in Melaka and it is the first one in the city. It has a lot of huskies which you can get close to and they have different activities such as playing with balls or giving treats. There are two outdoor sessions per day, one from 5pm to 7pm and the next at 8pm to 10pm.
This is a nice doggy theme park. Everyone can play around with lots of nice and friendly Husky dog, Alaskan dog, Samoyed dog, Chiba dog, Akita dog, Bomei dog. This is no longer a pet's cafe, but it's a place for you to play around with all these doggy, and take photo with them, and feed them as well.
Session 1 at ground floor, cost RM28/person, last for 1 hour, then you are eligible to enter session 2 at 1st floor, at special price of RM10/person, last for 30 minutes.

I was totally excited when i see the group of huskies rushing into the room. They were all so well groomed, intelligent, naughty and yet craving for attention at all times ( that's if you have dog biscuits in your hand). The place can be accessed quite easily using Grab transport services. Love this place 😍

What an amazing experience! Both the Husky and the Inu Session were fantastic. You really get A LOT of time to cuddle and interact with the dogs. Everything is organized perfectly and all employees are super nice. I strongly recommed this to anyone who loves dogs!
André Hofmann — Google review
Doggo heaven. Stampede of so many Huskies, and a Samoyed ! They will only come to you if you give treatos though, which can be bought there- 2 packets for RM 4.
Followed by the Akita, pom, Shiba and husky puppies, which you get to carry ♥️ Get ready to be slobbered on and covered in floofs. No shoes inside so best to wear slippers. Can also take an organized picture with the doggos for RM 18 (+10 for digital copy).
Krystle Chan — Google review
They have limited time slots for each session. Check with them before you decide to walk in and wait long. The Huskies are very well trained and are very obedient. They're good with kids too. You can buy some treats and the trainers will guide you on how to properly feed them. The moment the Huskies see you with a treat packet in your hand, they'll swarm you and some would even place their paw on you to get your attention. You can pet them, hug them and cuddle them. I love how their fur smells good like they just finished grooming.

I recently visited The Huskitory and had an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality by the staff. The space is beautifully designed, with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.
But the real stars of the show, of course, are the huskies! The dogs are all well-trained, well-behaved, and clearly well-loved by their caretakers. It was such a joy to spend time with them and watch them play and interact with each other and with the visitors.
The Huskitory is more than just a place to see and pet some cute dogs, though. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable about the breed and are happy to answer any questions you might have. They also offer a range of services, from grooming to training, that are clearly designed with the well-being of the dogs in mind.
Overall, I can't recommend The Huskitory highly enough. Whether you're a dog lover, a fan of huskies in particular, or just looking for a fun and unique experience, this is the place to go. Thank you to the staff for creating such a special place and for taking such great care of these wonderful dogs

Interacting with the huskies at Huskitory was an absolute delight! These fluffy companions create an enchanting atmosphere, and the experience is nothing short of magical. From their friendly demeanor to the playful antics, every moment is filled with joy. It's not just a visit; it's a heartwarming encounter with these beautiful creatures that leaves you with a smile that lasts long after you've said goodbye. A truly wonderful and unforgettable experience at Huskitory!

If you're an animal lover, this cafe is a must-visit haven that will leave you with a heart full of happiness and cherished memories.

I wanted a different experience for my kids. Initially, I felt it was quite pricey and I left the place feeling that it was all worth it. Staff were very service orientated to ensure all visitors get some time with their fav dog. They were quick to react and always keep a lookout for playful dogs who can be more active than the rest. Overall, I'll do this again when I come to Melaka.

Oh my goodness the dogs are so adorable and well trained! I do not think they are harsh to them as some of the reviews mention as I’m pretty sure the dogs are more than happy. I can see they are very well taken care of! It may be pricey for locals but it is understandable. It is not cheap to take care such big dogs, at such volume. Grooming, vet fees, ac all adds up.

Amazing place and they treat the dogs
Very nicely. Friendly staff. But make sure when you book online you book the slot you can absolutely make it on time. Because they are very particular about the time that the dog spends with visitors and then the time off from interactions for them. The huskies are well behaved playful and so cute. The staff will teach you how to interact with them.

My family had a wonderful time, so 5 stars! The dogs were amazingly friendly and obedient. This place focus more on quality time interacting with the dogs, rather than the drink. But to get voluntary attention of the dog , buying treats is a must. But the trainer will help bring the dogs over for some photo moments using your own camera. So that is a plus. As for the Japanese Shiba Inu, the trainer actually place the dog onto your lap.

A place for dog lovers. A 1 hour session with a group of huskies which you can pet or take photos with them. You may also purchase some biscuits and feed the doggies. At the end of the session you can choose to take a picture together with the dogs for RM20. Overall a nice and clean place. The dogs are also clean and quite well trained. You have to contact them to book a slot and make payment to confirm your visit.

It's a double storey corner converted to Huskitory. You can park car at the roadside. We went on Thursday morning 11am by advance booking , cost RM35 per pax. Please be on time if you don't want to miss the huskies entrance. There were another couple with us on that session only so it is not as crowded as weekend. The huskies are very cute, and let us hugging and cuddling them. We bought 3 small pack of dog treats, cost RM5 and feed the huskies and they loved it and keep surrounded you. The 2 dog caretakers are friendly too and will put the huskies on your lap and let you take photos with the huskies. The 1 hour session is truly fun and enjoyable. Last session is photo session with huskies line up at the front. It's optional cost RM55 for 1 photo with frame, we took the photo session and it really worth it as the photo is super nice. Highly recommended for adults and teenager group. Parent need to pay extra attention if bring babies and small kids.

The heritage museum Baba Nyonya is a place that celebrates the cultural and historical blending of Chinese and Malay cultures which is known as Baba Nyonya. It features a variety of crafts, furniture and paintings from the two cultures that have come together to make this unique form of Malaysian life. The museum offers a snapshot of the lives and history of the local Chinese Malays people in one location.
Must-visit when you are in George Town. Stanley, who does the English-speaking tours is a rockstar. He explains everything with humour and personality. Extremely interesting era and heritage that is being conserved here. You can get lost in there for hours, just beautiful and unique. I highly recommend coming by and getting a tour with Stanley, what a lovely man.

Museum was clean and well maintained. Guided tour are available depends on the time of the day but it wasn’t available when we got there, but the information book was informative enough for us. RM 16 charge was money well spent, we learnt quite a bit whilst there. There’s signs clearly say don’t touch the antique items but sadly seems the signs were still ignored by some visitors. There was insufficient staffs to enforce any kind of control. People really need to respect these historic items to preserve them for our future generations..

A gem not to be missed if you are in Melaka. This is a step back in time, thought provokingly in regards to the colonial past of Malaysia. Sometimes, beyond unassuming façades there is an impressive residence. We particularly enjoyed seeing the kitchen. It brought us closer to people that worked and lived there. As with most museums in Melaka make sure you have cash to pay for the tickets.

Every thing here is just stunning! To be honest, I have never seen such a magnificent residential home in China. Everything is so well-preserved that it feels like time has stood still. The current owner still takes care of this residence, and inside, along with its intriguing architecture and beautiful interior, there are stunning pieces of furniture worth seeing. It's a part of Chinese history and represents the cultural wealth that the Chinese have created and preserved outside of China. The visit is consistently awe-inspiring and impressive. I was fortunate to meet the heir and current owner of the ancestral home and have a conversation with them. Such museum homes are quite common in Southeast Asia, especially in Malaysia. I hope to have the opportunity to visit and compare them with those in other places.

A well reserved Peranakan house, interior is luxury and clean, a place to learn a bit knowledge of Baba & Nyonya. Entrance fee cost RM18 per pax , no reservation required during weekday. A self guide book will hand over and you can walk around the house by following the guide book. It is not really a museum but you may learn few things from the journey to this heritage house.

This is an excellent museum dedicated to a wealthy family in Melaka. Each room was exquisitely preserved or portrayed a story from the lives of the family. Although there is currently restoration of the kitchen going on, you can still see into the area they are working on. It’s a must visit while in the area. I learned so much about the culture!

A must-go place if you're visiting Malacca. This place is so beautiful that it's hard to believe someone lived here 200 years ago.
There is a guided tour by staff, and self-guided tour by book. Unfortunately when we went there wasn't a guided tour, but the staff was very professional in briefing us before we enter.
The house is beautiful, most of the items here are original and really beautiful. Walking through, you feel like you've travelled back in time, just imagine what it was like to live here. The items are clean, refurbished, and it didn't feel like things were fake or replicas. Unfortunately too, we came at the wrong time of year as the kitchen was undergoing some restoring so we couldn't see it.
Highly recommended for history buffs, and also for the family to walk through history together.

Have had a wonderful time exploring and understanding this heritage as passed down from the early babas and nonyas. Very well maintained and preserved exhibits and artifacts which are passed down from generations to generations. Watch out for the floor tiles, the well carved (well maintained too!) doors, furnishings, decorative displays, paintings and photos and the various daily utensils for eating and cooking. Friendly host informed on what to do and not to do (and where to sit and not sit) through booklet which was returned after visit. The stairs and steps to 2nd level has its own designs to behold and admire too. Amazing place, worth the time taken to visit and spent like 2+ hours there. Parking is really tricky at this place but the staff there mentioned there is a parking place with $3RM for whole day behind a particular block. Need parking coupons otherwise.

This Baba Nyonya Museum is worth a visit! When you step inside, you will feel how the people lived in the olden days. If you have watched 小娘惹 from Mediacorp Singapore, you will know what I am saying! Besides, I personally love the British Architecture shophouse built within British Malaya era (now aka Malaysia and Singapore), stepping inside feels like travelling through time, it's not just an antique or a relic, it's our ancestor memories.
Their descendants have conserved and preserved the shophouse with their effort. Must visit to feel and experience the past!

Visiting the Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum is an enriching experience that offers insight into the lives of wealthy Baba Nyonya people from a century ago. The meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship evident throughout the entire house left us in awe. The collections displayed inside the museum provided a fascinating glimpse into the culture and heritage of the Baba Nyonya community. However, the absence of a tour guide detracted from the experience as we were left wanting for more information about the premises. Nonetheless, despite this drawback, the museum is definitely worth a visit for anyone interested in delving into the rich history and traditions of the Baba Nyonya culture.

Jonker Street Night Market is a popular attraction in Melaka that takes place on Friday thru Sunday evenings. It's packed with food and souvenirs, as well as entertainment, making it a great place to spend a night out.
Nice place for late night walk, but food/souvenirs are kind of pricy, as expected of a tourist spot. Overall, it has a nice ambience and many shops are open despite MCO greatly affecting the shops in 2020. Would recommend to take a stroll for the beautiful view and historical architecture.

This is one crazy place. So many people and so much activity. I like the fact that you have so many unique stalls selling all sorts of stuff including all kinds of foods. Pretty much overwhelmed in a good way as I was kinda excited to see so much. The best part is seeing everyone from sellers to buyers having a great time......which has to be a place for side hustles to thrive. It's also within other tourist attractions in town. A wonderful Melaka drawcard for tourists and locals alike. Will definitely come back again.

What a great tourism, night lights and overall wonderful celebration to Chinese New Year.
The colours smells and sights are worth looking at. Also had the best Laksa Nan Yang style in a small market off the side of Yonker street.
Tourist and locals join to unite. Had no issues with personal safety.

Night market is only Friday and Saturday from 6:30-midnight. Lots of food stalls, people selling stuff & street entertainment. In some spots it was too crowded to walk but it eventually opened up. Lots of seating. Food stalls are also along the side streets so don't miss those. People were very polite and respectful. 1 of the major streets was closed off. Lots of fun & a wonderful experience.

Good collection of snacks, trinkets, gadgets & other novelty items. Can be hot, so please dress according to weather, bring water & fan. Easy to find using maps, plenty of parking spaces by the roadside (make sure you park responsibly)

A paradise for food lovers. The night market opens on weekends in the evenings. Quite a lot of cafes and small restaurants line the street but the night market experience is the best. You can shop for knick knacks on the streets while enjoying an impressive variety of snacks. The lanes get very crowded as night progresses, so visiting with kids is a little tricky.

Not worth to go for visit anymore. A lot of repetitive stall which selling the same thing / food, for example, the jelly ball, at least 6 stalls which own by same boss. The 龙须糖 also easily more than 5 stalls, all is not authentic or Malacca-related food, it just a normal night market as we can found everywhere in KL.

Lively night market and a lot of food being sold here. Love the vibes and the food too! Recommend trying the fried potatoes slices on a stick, Jonker 88 for their famous laksa, and the yogurt ice cream shaped like an egg

In the historic heart of Melaka, Jonker Street Night Market unfolds like an animated tapestry of color, flavor, and sound each weekend, specifically on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings. This isn't just a market; it's an extravaganza that captures the diverse cultural essence of Melaka. When the weekend rolls around, Jonker Street transforms into a lively bazaar, making it a must-visit event if you're in town.
The market is a treasure trove for bargain hunters and collectors alike. Stalls burst with a variety of goods, from vintage trinkets and handmade crafts to cutting-edge fashion and accessories. The eclectic mix serves as a testament to Melaka's rich history, where Chinese, Dutch, Portuguese, and native Malay influences seamlessly intertwine.
But it's the food that often steals the show. The air is thick with the aroma of local delicacies, from succulent satay skewers to delectable Nyonya dumplings. Whether you're an adventurous eater willing to try exotic flavors or someone seeking the comforting taste of traditional Malay dishes, your culinary desires will be more than satisfied.
And let's not forget the entertainment. Spontaneous performances often erupt at street corners—buskers strumming guitars, puppeteers enchanting children, and sometimes even full-fledged concerts that get the crowd dancing. This unique blend of entertainment contributes to the electric atmosphere, making each visit a new and exciting experience.
Jonker Street Night Market is not just a marketplace; it’s the pulsating heart of Melaka. Open exclusively on weekends, it's a space where locals and tourists converge to experience the city in its purest form. Don't consider your trip to Melaka complete without immersing yourself in the sensory spectacle that is Jonker Street Night Market.
Amin Rochdi — Google review
Bustling night life street which only happens on certain days of the week and when you don't arrive on those days then the aroma of handmade goodies and other traditional stores will lure you in. Immerse yourself in the Malaysian cultural heritage and treat yourself to artisan craft both for the eyes, mouth and ears!
Great for people wishing to enjoy Malaysian traditional snacks and food that jonker has to offer, also amazing for people that have interest in antiques.
Seemingly easy for people with mobility issues to move around, crossing the road maybe an issue sometimes and roads are congested mostly. Walkways are 2m wide and unable to accommodate wheelchair during bustling night life weekends but normal afternoons is plenty walk space. Authentic snacks and antique gifts are a must buy

The Vibe, Energy and Ambiance. This place is amazing. If you like night markets then this place is the place to be. Only opens on weekends but if you are going to Melaka you should definitely visit.
It is crowded and definitely hot. I recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes.
The place is filled with amazing food and local items. Make sure you bring enough cash on hand if you are planning to splurge.
We will definitely comeback to this place.

Opens only on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. This night market is pretty long. This night market starts from around 6 pm. From this timing, there will be many stalls starting to set up. Most of the stalls sell repeatitive stuff.
Didn't manage to buy a lot of stuff. Food choices are also quite limited. Like most night markets around the world.

The day time and the night time were so different in the cool way. I really like the old buildings here. They are very amazing.

Way more fun now that there are more vendors out though there are a lot more food stalls with some repetition throughout. Always nice to see what is new - mango smoothies, dragon beard candy and lots of Thai tea and korean street food options. Definitely worth a visit though Parking is very challenging. I'd suggest Parking further out and just walking into Jonker. Saves you money, you get exercise AND you skip the jam coming in and going out. Checkout some of the cafes and stores for respite from heat, noise and people.
Nicholas Lee — Google review
Place was buzzing with activities even though we came early and saw vendors started setting up stalls. The market covers the entire street, packed with many interesting stuff as we walked along browsing what was on offer. Lots of tourist around as expected but the experience was overall a nice one as traverse along with the crowd.
Andrew Ang — Google review
Love the atmosphere here at night. There are beca rides for 25 ringgit, scooters and local hawkers that sell food and drinks.
You should check out the coconut ball stall where he cuts the coconut meat from the coconut with its water still inside of the coconut meat. Very cool.

During the weekend nights, Jonker Street Night Market comes alive with a bustling market atmosphere. The market is a must-visit for those looking to experience the rich culture, delicious food, and vibrant atmosphere of Melaka. It's a great place to immerse oneself in the local scene and enjoy the historical surroundings.

It's a very interesting market both day and night. Lots of quaint shops and eateries but difficult to get western food or a good coffee. Great place for buying the local products and reasonably priced. Streets are small and definitely need a hat as its incredibly hot
Wayne Cockerall — Google review
A must-visit on your list when in Melaka. Probably the most bustling stretch of streets at the heart of this city when the night market “activates” on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Full of awesome authentic street food, drinks, fancy accessories/toys, local snacks, clothings, and even tattoo services. There are a couple of lanes across the entire area, no particular theme per se but you do get similar items repeated at different vendors, does get boring after awhile but regardless it’s an area which is not exceptionally extensive so you get to cover majority of it within 1-2 hours on average. Store owners are really friendly and can communicate well. Most stalls only accepts cash payments. Not much haggling allowed. All in all a wonderful experience soaking in the local culture amidst attractive lights, food aroma and live music at some corners.

Nice place for Antique shops, price is on bit higher side. Location is very hot carry water bottle , Family people with kids can go to this place only when it's Not Sunny day, better plan with kids after checking local temperature.
local food varieties all non vegetarian and deeply fried , taste is not worth of the money

One of the very long night markets, especially on weekends, various kinds of food, drinks, accessories and so on are sold here. It is highly recommended to come here on weekends.
They also have colorful tricycles that take you to see the surroundings and recommend tourist attractions that you should go to when you come to Melaka. 😁

Pretty great experience. Not too long of a market, enough to keep you interested but not so long that you feel overwhelmed and too tired to do the whole thing. Felt just about right in terms of distance. Plus there's things around the market to do if you find the marker itself is not enough. The food on offer is pretty good and enough variety to keep it interesting. Does get a little repetitive. Also other souvenirs and trinkets on sale too. Overall great vibe and well worth a visit.

Excellent place to visit. If you're looking for trendy crowds and multiple street stalls, this is the place to be. Market opens after 6pm. Just bring along an umbrella and thin plastic rain coat for the sudden heavy showers during December period."winter season" Food stalls are very cheap and foods are freshly prepared.

Give credit where credit is due!
I must confess that Malaysian culture and hospitality is one of the best in the world.
The Jonker Street Night Market..... wow wow wow 👌 A long, eventful walk it was. From the start to the end, adventure awaits you. You turn left and right several times because the eyes keep feeding on the beauty of culture. There are many street stalls to buy stuff from, especially souvenirs.
It is the best place to eat whatever Malaysian food you can get your hands on; you must try the cendol, chicken rice balls, and oyster omelette. Then there's a watermelon feast that will quench your thirst. The list is endless.
Should you get tired, visit any one of the many spas for a quick foot massage at a very affordable price.
And do not leave Melaka without experiencing the trishaw ride, especially if you travel with kids. They will be blown away!
Warning! Be ready to walk. Also, make sure you give this experience enough time.

Jalan Hang Jebat, 75200 Malacca, Malaysia
I'll never travel to Johor Bahru without this trip planner again
Menara Taming Sari is a rotating observation tower in Bandar Hilir, Malacca City located at Jalan Merdeka. It offers 360-degree panoramic views of the city and beyond and is only 3 minutes walk from Mahkota Parade Shopping Complex and Dataran Pahlawan Megamall.
Wonderful experience viewing the town and Malacca Straits. 360• view lasted for 7 minutes. They also have photographer snap picture and can buy when exiting. Adults ticket cost RM17 and children above 2 years old is RM 11. Worth the try.

The view from top is good but the ride is too short and the rotations are too fast to even take proper pictures and see the city.
At the entrance they lie to take photos saying that the photos are for records but later try to sell badly edited photos for a premium.
Okay for one time.
Vivek Shukla — Google review
Located next to Malacca River, Pahlawan Mall
The ride brings you up 80m to the top to get a bird's eye view of Malacca
The ride is smooth and comfortable. It will rotate a few time at the top. Best time to ride is at night for the beautiful skyline.
Carpark is just outside and trishaw ride is also available.
Kam Hoe Chaw (Super Good) — Google review
Taming Sari Tower is a major attraction in downtown Malacca. At the highest peak of 105m or 24 floors, you can enjoy panoramic views across the city center. Since there is only one tower, so on weekends or school holidays will be crowded with visitors. Probably a long line to get into the tower.
There is limited parking, and the best option is to simply book a pick -up from your hotel. Don't forget to bring your identity card as it must be shown when buying tickets. A local child or who or is addressed in Malacca on the identity card, will buy tickets cheaper than others.

Had to wait until rain stopped, they don't operate if raining. Not many people on weekdays so not much queue, price is RM17 for Malaysian adult (show IC). View on top is beautiful, the platform will rotate 360°.
Overall facility could need some improvement, the toilet was under maintenance that day, overall look of ticket counter could be improved to look more professional
Around the place there are some tricycles and small stalls

Taming Sari Tower in Melaka is seriously epic! The tall structure offers a superhero-like experience with its spinning action, giving an incredible bird's-eye view of Melaka. It's perfect for Insta-worthy shots, capturing the mind-blowing cityscape. While the ride feels like a thrilling adventure, imagine how awesome it'd be with a cozy spot on top to chill and enjoy a coffee. A must-visit for anyone exploring Melaka – it's an unforgettable combination of excitement and breathtaking views! 👍🏙️

Initially I was really skeptical about it but tried.
It is a decent experience. The Malecca city can be observed from the rotating platform.
It could also be a great place to watch the massive ships passing through the straight.
The ticket price includes a water bottle.
This place has paid toilets.

Overall Experience:
An Hour ++ wait for 7 Minutes Ride.. For me personally, is worth it.. The view at night is spectacular to see the city night lights itself.. I can imagine in the day time, to be able to see the Sea View, truly spectacular..
Ride itself:
Everyone will be allocated a sit.
There will be staff inside to explain the view like a tour guide, quite cool.
In terms of the safety, is quite solid.
Rating:
9.2/10

It went really high. If you have fear of heights try to not look directly below you. Instead look at the horizon, it's so much better and more beautiful. You get an aerial view of the town and it's much prettier at night. You will have to wait in line before your turn but stand fans are provided if you find it too hot. Water bottles are provided in the package when you first pay for the entrance fee.
Wan Akdim Hizumie — Google review
For us, it was a pretty nice addition to get an overview of the city and to realise the changes over the centuries. The ride itself isn’t that spectacular, but you can rent binoculars for RM 5. The speed and movement are not so scary, so you can do this with the kids, too. A 360-panoramic view for an affordable price (RM 76 for two adults and two kids)is absolutely fine . If the wind blows too hard, the tower will be temporarily closed.

-A gyro-type totaing tower where you can get view of Melacca 360 degree bird eyes view at height 110 meter
-Best time visit: Around sunset time
-Price for adult foreigner is quite expensive 23RM(30RM for fast lane) suggest buying from apps for better deal
It takes you up and then rotates at the top a few times (it turn slowly and won't feel dizzy) before coming back down
Took times around 7 minutes

The Taming Sari Tower is one of the unique tourist attractions found in Melaka. Don't forget to include a ride on the Taming Sari in your itinerary when visiting Melaka. The tower ride lasts for 7 minutes and offers a 360-degree view of Melaka.
It's recommended to purchase tickets for the evening session to capture beautiful sunset pictures of Melaka. The waiting time is short, the queue is organized, and the staff are friendly. Plus, each ticket purchase comes with a complimentary bottle of mineral water. You can also rent binoculars to get a clearer view of the surroundings in Melaka.
I suggest buying tickets from your hotel or through apps like Klook for better deals compared to counter prices. We created lasting memories as a family on the Taming Sari. Don’t forget to visit the Taming Sari Tower during your trip.

If you wanna see a great city view of Melacca, you should visit this place. You will experience the great view from above.

Melaka, specifically the Taming Sari area, is a beautiful and historically rich destination that offers a mix of cultural heritage and modern attractions. The Taming Sari Tower, in particular, provides visitors with a unique panoramic view of the city and its surroundings. ((although I didn't have time to ride the Taming Sari Tower .When I go again, I will try to get experience riding it)) but I went on a river cruise last night along the Melaka river.🛥️🏙️
.
The historical sites in Melaka, such as A Famosa, St. Paul's Hill, and Jonker Street, offer a glimpse into the city's past and its diverse cultural influences. The vibrant street art, traditional architecture, and delicious local cuisine make Melaka a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history and culture.
#Melaka is small, you go round and round through the same places
The Dutch Square in Melaka is a popular tourist attraction that features a collection of brightly-coloured Dutch colonial buildings. The square is often surrounded by colourful trishaws that can be used for tours around the city.
Nice surroundings. Great place to take some pictures and appreciate the colonial architecture. A lot of areas to sit and gain new perspective on the square including near the fountain and surrounding areas. Food and merchandise stalls are available adjacent to the square. I had hoped for more historical information as both the Church and the buildings are not accessible to visitors during the time of visit. Definitely the highlight of Melaka and a Must-Visit.

The iconic location to be in Malacca. The Dutch buildings here have so much historical significance. There's an elevated platform where you can get a shot of the Christ Church Melaka building. It's really popular. At night, you can also find the trishaw riders with their lights on, which makes for a spectacle.

This historical site is located right in the heart of Melaka Historical City.
Numerous Dutch and British historical buildings are located around this location.
The night views are beautiful too.
A boat terminal serving the Melaka River Cruise is also located nearby. The Night Melaka River Cruise is highly recommended.
On the weekends, there is a beautiful night market in the nearby renowned Jonker Walk.
Nearby here, there are numerous restaurants and food stalls serving authentic Baba Nyonya and local foods.
There are also numerous souvenir stalls. A haven for souvenir hunters.
Overall it is a place that brings you back in time and also gives you a modern feeling too..

So why is the Red Square at Melaka colored red? Nobody really knows, what we do know is that it was originally colored white. The red paint was introduced not by the Dutch during their 300-year rule, but by the British in the early 20th century. A popular theory is that locals spat so much red betel nut onto the walls -- out of disrespect for the Dutch -- that the British eventually just painted them red to avoid additional maintenance costs. 🤣🇲🇾💕

It’s a nice start of your day trip in Melaka, but to me (even as a Dutch person) was a little overrated. Nice to see the Dutch heritage and a cool change of architecture opposed to the rest of Malaysia, but not something I couldn’t have missed in our trip.
Jonker street however, most fun street we have seen in Malaysia, so Melaka is still a must visit!

A landmark in Melaka and a popular attraction. Dutch Square is surrounded by iconic red buildings, lots of tourists, and trishaws.
When we went, there was an abundance of flowers, which made for a distraction from all the litter.
There are not many information signs about the history, which seems like a missed opportunity.

It would have been a pleasant visit if not for a certain group of tourists. They were running amok all around the area, cutting queues and hogging photo spots. Two of them even climbed over the railings and did not pay for the RM2 to gain entry into the cleanest more lovely toilet around the area. Some were taking pictures with NK regards for traffic and blocked walkways. Such a sad situation it was.
Other than that, it was a nice place to be and to see the Christ church with my own eyes..and even being there was so surreal!. PLEASE VISIT The souvenir shop ran by an elderly couple round the corner. They were the most patient and sweetest people around and their prices were not overpriced!. The trishaw uncles were nice and they don't force you in your face to avail their services. And do try the chendol and watermelon juice(in a legit whole watermelon! 🍉 . Maybe I went at the wrong time but nonetheless it was great to be there!. Do come and visit to see and take in the sight and sounds of the area!.

This place has a mix of Portuguese and Dutch history since both lived in this city.
The place can be quite crowded with tourists and locals, and is very clean and well-served with restaurants, cafes, and stores.
You can also walk through the river or even take a cruise ride across the river.

Went to Melaka during second day of Hari Raya. As expected, the place was heavy crowded with people since Melaka is one of destination during holiday. This old Church is reflecting the day when Dutch occupy Melaka, and built the Fort there. this Church exactly across Jonker street.
The red-brick Christ Church in Melaka is one of the most recognisable tourist attractions in Malaysia, and remains the oldest operational Protestant Church in the country. Inside, you'll find 200-year-old handmade pews, decorative fanlights and plaques honouring Dutch soldiers and locals.
Definitely need to visit, historic buildings with unique paint job. If you visit early in the morning before 8am there is no one around.

The church is a well known landmark in Malacca and is worth checking out when in the old part of the city. Malacca has a lot of history and was under three different colonial powers and before that, a powerful sultunate and this diverse history shows. This church is reminiscent of the Dutch colonial rule in Malacca.

Interesting place to visit. The atmosphere here is very warm and friendly. There's a pedestrian along the river and it's a long path to walk.
Was here in September, and it was quite a hot season there, even at night the wind was minimal. I think Melaka is an area that tends to be warm. But being here at night is very romantic too.
We can even take a boat that goes around the river area and enjoy the cool breeze with safe speed and safety standards.
Along the main road across from Christ Church there are food vendors which are worth a try, often busy but the prices are very affordable.

If you're in Kuala Lumpur and planning to visit Malaysia, Melaka is a must-visit city just about 2 hours away. You can easily catch a bus without prior bookings. The city is so vibrant that you will definitely fall in love with it.
The Christ church is a popular spot and gets very crowded by 12pm, so visiting early in the morning is the best option. You can also experience its peaceful side before the crowds gather.
Do take the evening boat ride on the Melakka river.
I would personally suggest staying atleast one night in Melakka as the city comes alive during night.

Beautifully preserved historic church located right in the heart of Melaka. This is an Anglican church with regular services. The architecture is beautiful and is a nod to Melaka's colonial past. There are often many tourists found milling outside the church hoping to sneak a peek inside it.

One of the best spot to visit in Melaka. Visited this place on Friday. So so many people come. Really popular as this is a tourist spot area. Take lot of pictures outside. But the weather really hot so dont go around a lot as i prefer to go to cafe nearby as too hot.

Iconic landmark in Malacca and you can't miss it. 18th century Dutch building that has stood the test of time. Well maintained, peaceful and cool inside when it's blistering hot outside, not much of an architecture marvel but the vibe and the historical significance is beyond me.

An 18th century Dutch designed and built protestant church. Claimed to be the oldest protestant church in Malaysia. It still holds services for the Christian congregation in Malacca.
Originally painted in white but re painted in red in 1911 which gives it, it's significant color of Dutch - era buildings. Like other temples and mosque this is a nice place to visit and offer prayers. The entrance is at the office side, where they have a small shop for souvenirs. #RP

It's beautiful to watch. It was the Portuguese who first occupied Malacca when they captured the city in 1511, and in 1521 a Portuguese noblemen, Duarte Coelho, decided to build the first church, dedicating it to the Virgin Mary to give thanks for surviving a storm in South China Sea. St.Paul’s Church was situated prominently on the hill overlooking the town and the Malacca Straits, within its defensive walls.
The Portuguese lost possession of Malacca to the Dutch in 1641 and the church being Catholic could have been destroyed by the Dutch, who were mainly Protestant, but contrary to usual practice, they decided to preserve it and reconsecrate it as a Dutch Protestant church calling it “Bovenkerk” (“High Church”). The Dutch ruled Malacca from 1641 to 1824 and they used St. Paul’s Church for worship until 1753 when they completed the Christ Church in Malacca Square.

Christ Church Melaka is a very nice red church. As you can see, inside it looks very nice and grand. On the pathway of going to the church, they are selling some keychains and coins of Melaka places and interesting things. So, if you ever want to buy a souvenir for your friend(s) or family, come here to buy them!

Historical spot with many options to dine at corner of this church. We stayed a night with my close friend in this city to enjoy the scenery. A must visit again now that we have our respective families. It will not take more time to take a bus from Singapore to this place, and from this place to KL Malaysia. I will for sure visit again this historical place with the wife and kids so I can give them the chance to explore and learn culture of this heritage city in Malaysia. See you soon Melaka!

A bit disappointed by the signage as it was a bit misleading. It said that the church was open for visiting when it was actually closed but it might’ve been a mistake on my part as well because if I’m not wrong, the church closes by 5 PM. Other than that, it was beautiful to recall my memories in the Netherlands by seeing the brick red colour of the Dutch styled church, the presence of Dutch and Portuguese colonialism was evident from a lot of the architecture and street names of that area

Gereja Christ, Jalan Gereja, Banda Hilir, 75000 Malacca, Malaysia
The Malacca Heritage site contains the St. Paul's Church, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Malacca. Constructed by a Portuguese nobleman in gratitude to the Virgin Mary for his escape from a storm, this church is now famous for being the burial place of Francis Xavier, the pioneering Catholic missionary of Southeast Asia.
A historic church building originally built in early 1500 by the Portuguese nobleman as an act of gratitude for surviving from a storm in the South China Sea. It's the oldest church building in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. The place where it's located is called St Paul's Hill, which forms part of the heritage museum area. It's a 5 minute walk up to the hill. The building looks abandoned and tourists are free to walk around inside. Within the building, there are several historical tombstones, records of people with Dutch ethnicity who lived in Malacca and some of Portuguese ethnicity from an earlier period. Within the covered area, there is a fenced around of an open grave which used to be buried with Catholic missionary St Francis Xavier's body after he passed away and his body was later shipped to Goa.
In front of the ruined building, there is a now-defunct lighthouse, which consists mainly of a lantern and gallery mounted on an arched base and is solely accessible from ground level via a small ladder from the 1800s. There is also the statue of St. Francis Xavier right in front of the lighthouse.

St. Paul's Church Lighthouse also known as Malacca Light and it's located in St. Paul's Church, Bukit Melaka, Bandar Hilir, Malacca, Malaysia.
The Malacca Light is an inactive lighthouse in Malacca City built with Watch Tower that's overlooking to Malacca River and the sea strait. An additional beacon in year 1849 by British for ships travelling along the Strait of Malacca.
The lighthouse was eventually deactivated, the functionality diminished further as to Malaccan Harbour underwent land reclamation d uring the late 20th century. This building's now becomes a partial of Malacca City attractions.

The Saint Paul Church in Malacca is an historic landmark that should not be missed by any tourist visiting the city. This 16th century church has a rich history and has stood the test of time.
The church is perched on top of a hill, overlooking the city and offering stunning views of Malacca. The climb to the top of the hill is quite steep, but the view from the top is definitely worth it. Once you reach the top, you'll be greeted with a serene and peaceful atmosphere, as well as a sense of history and spirituality.
DO CARRY AN UMBRELLA, WATER BOTTLE AND SOME SNACKS WITH YOU FOR THIS STEEP CLIMB.
The church itself is a beautiful piece of architecture. The interior of the church is just as impressive as the exterior, with a sense of grandeur and majesty that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
Originally built by the Portuguese, it was later used as a burial ground by the Dutch.
With its stunning views, impressive architecture, and rich history, it's a truly unique and unforgettable experience. So if you're planning a trip to Malacca, make sure to add this amazing church to your itinerary!

The oldest St Paul Church in Malaysia located on the St Paul hill that was built since 1952. Constructed by the Portuguese in honor of the Virgin Mary for saving their life during a storm at sea. Little left to see but still have a beautiful trace of the history remain such as the bell tower and walls with engraved tombstones

The ruins of St. Paul's church stand at the summit of St. Paul's hill near the remains of A Famosa fortress.
It was built in 1521 by Duarte Coelho in gratitude to the Virgin Mary for saving his life in the South China sea.
The church is renowned as the place where the body of Francis Xavier, the pioneering Catholic missionary of Southeast Asia, was laid to rest for a period of eight months after his death at sea.

The ruins of the Church of Saint Paul on top of Bukit Melaka is a fascinating place to visit. It doesn’t require a lot of time and you’ll get beautiful views of the city. It has a solemn atmosphere among the grave markers of the various Dutch merchants in the area. After the church descend the stairs to the south to visit the museum of the Sultan’s palace.

Good place to visit while in Malacca. Walking distance from Malacca square. The walk up the hill to reach the church is not difficult and up the hill you get a nice breeze and view of Malacca. You can get information about the church ruins on the board and can sit around and rest on the benches near the church. The inside of the church has rocks with engravings and is pretty picturesque too.

This was worth visiting during our stay in Malacca. The preservation of original structure despite of damages to some places gives a good old feel to it. We even got lucky to listen to the song ‘Imagine by John Lennon’ by a busker named Terima Kasih- that was quite fun to listen to the legendary lyrics in a 500+ year old church :)

Actually, I didn't have a good understanding of this church of St. Paul which was built by the Portuguese. Many reviewers say that it is a historical place and they give high scores. Don't sugarcoat it. Personally speaking, there was nothing special. Only a few large tombstones are displayed leaning against the wall.
Albeit it is one of the historical places of Melaka, the church is built on the top of the hill which is so stiff. I am 44 year old man but had difficulty reaching it. So, I think bringing children with you is not a good idea. That's because the weather is so hot, thirsty, sweating, and at that time, I thought to myself. "What am I doing here?"
Considering that the church is almost destroyed, you'd better visit another attractive area of Melaka to save time as a tourist. You are not a national geographic photographer. Keep in mind. Enjoy.

Well maintained ruins of the old Church of Saint Paul, with access to the site from some stairs. A few benches around so can have a seat at the top, as well as some stalls selling various gifts and other items. Information sign at the front is easy to understand and the large text can be translated to English via a QR code at the bottom. Great views of the surrounding area, both looking towards the town and out to sea

The Church of St. Paul in Malacca stands as an evocative testament to the city's rich historical narrative. Perched atop St. Paul's Hill, the weathered ruins of this church, also known as St. Paul's Church, offer a captivating journey through time.
Originally constructed by the Portuguese in 1521, the church was later transformed into a burial ground for their noble dead. The gravestones, weathered by centuries, serve as silent markers of the city's colonial past. The church underwent subsequent modifications under Dutch rule in the 17th century, adding to its historical layers.
Ascending the stairs to the church provides not only a physical but also a symbolic ascent into Malacca's history. The panoramic view from the summit is breathtaking, offering a sweeping vista of the city below and the Malacca Strait in the distance. It's a moment of reflection amidst the remnants of a bygone era.
The church's architecture, a fusion of Portuguese and Dutch influences, exudes a rustic charm. The red-bricked façade, moss-covered tombstones, and the iconic 17th-century Dutch tomb of St. Francis Xavier all contribute to the site's historical allure. The latter, dedicated to the revered Jesuit missionary, adds a spiritual dimension to the visit.
Exploring the interior, albeit mostly in ruins, reveals remnants of intricate Portuguese tiles and religious artifacts. These remnants, though weathered, still convey a sense of the church's former grandeur and the spiritual significance it held for the colonial settlers.
Beyond its historical significance, the Church of St. Paul serves as a tranquil escape from the bustling streets of Malacca. The hilltop location and the surrounding greenery create a serene ambiance, inviting visitors to linger and soak in the cultural and spiritual resonance of the site.
In summary, the Church of St. Paul in Malacca is a poignant mosaic of history, architecture, and spirituality. Its ruins, perched atop St. Paul's Hill, offer a profound and enriching experience, making it a must-visit for those seeking a deeper connection with the cultural heritage of this UNESCO World Heritage city.

A rather technical hike that is definitely not for beginners. Good to have some bit of training as the ascent can take about 5-6hrs and the descent another 4-5hrs.
Starts with paths, then rocky path, then ladders and ropes. Can be rather gruelling and bad for the knees, especially on the descent.
View is decent. There’s better views elsewhere but definitely worth a climb for avid climbers.

End of June 2022: I made it to the summit of Mount Ophir. The daytrip (up and down) took me 11 hours. RM152 per pax, including tour guide and packed lunch. There’s penalty of RM50 per group if u returned after 7pm.
Early August 2022: Went for photoshoot by the roadside. The view is still amazing and breathtaking

Gunung Ledang is a well known mountain shrouded thick with the legend of Princess Ledang. Also named as Mount Ophir, it lays between Johor and Melaka with 2 hiking routes, camp sites and waterfalls.
Started at around 8am, 7 of us hiked with our friendly guide for about 7hours uphill via Sagil trail from Tangkak, Johor. The first few check points were warm ups in retrospect for the latter ones as more and more lengthy ladders replaced the sturdy hiking path. Towards the peak, ladders gave way to ropes and eventually we found ourselves abseiling to the top.
View by now was breath-taking, both figuratively and literally.Especially fresh in my memory was the cool breeze in the foggy Japanese Garden near peak. By noon, we've summited and surrounded by clouds all around. Next, we headed downwards to a tent site for some much needed rest and a self-heating hot meal, what a life-saver.
Hike down was a rather no-brainer with a hiking pole. By 6pm and 10 hours later, we've completed the trail of about 6km+ safely.
All in all, I'd say it's a rather technical hike involving some ladder climbing & abseiling. Medium difficulty. Good to be fit enough to enjoy the hike.

This trail is above beginner. Muddy, slippery and you can easily get lost if you don't have a guide. Me and my friends started our climb at 8AM, went to the Peak B around 1PM and Peak A (Summit) around 2PM. It was an awesome experience climbing this mountain. My first out of the country mountain peak. This is highly recommended and will surely be back again.

It's challenging trekking. I went there for 2D 1N camping. You can do day hike as well but its very tiring and rushing. Sunrise view is very amazing and its cold on top peak. Waterfall is nearby the camp site and its amazing creature! Beginner is not advise, this trekking is for intermediate to expert level.

This is a very small dinosaur park. Anyhow, you may bring your kids here to have fun with the dinosaurs, and some in-door games and activities. The entrance is free of charge but you need to pay for those optional games and activities. May drop by here if you have chance to visit Muar one day.

The park's alright if you just have some time to spend away or within vicinity. Most of the dinosaurs on display required maintenance....but it's free admission anyway so 🤷
The rides however were quite costly, coming at a minimum of RM10/ride. Majority of the machinery and chairs were pre-owned so it might looked beaten up... probably bought at a wholesaler bargain

Chill park with decent sea view, nothing special but definitely a place where Muar locals come to relax.
Walking there from Wetex parade is a good choice, as it's a very quiet/peaceful path with mosques all around. (around 10-15 mins walk)
There's also a spot where people gather to view the sunset, pretty cool but nothing overly special for the seasoned traveller.

Its good for you to relax your mind. But you need a really nice timing cuz something there are too many people sometimes it can be noisy. Before you go into the park, you can buy some little snack outside like fried food, drinks or sunflower seeds. You can also play with scooter? I don't know what they called but kinda similar to it. It is RM 25 if I'm no mistaken. And for kids you can rent that mini car that PARENTS can control. I will not say that its the cleanest water but its okay. I like the vibes better at night. Also you can take many beautiful picture there. Have a nice trip.

Visited Tanjung Emas, literally translated into “Cape Gold” on a weekday.
Apparently, there is an opening hours to the place, but we somehow managed to visit the park.
The place is very well maintained. The facilities are very clean. It is the 1st public toilet that we visited that we have to remove our shoes and change to their slippers provided.
The place is also very very windy and we had a nice time enjoying the strong breeze.
A must go when you visit Muar.

Came here once on weekday night. As expected, not many people. But i believe this place is quite a blast on weekend. Great place for family with kids and nice place to hangout/stroll with friends while enjoying the breeze as it just by the river.
Either day or night, this place offer its own attractions like monuments, playground, parks and beautiful lightings during night. The road around this area also seems nice route for a walk/run
However, there is no single stall selling foods/drinks here, maybe that is the way to keep it clean. By the way, this town was awarded as the most cleanest town in asia.
Overall nice place, a must visit if you're an outsider. Could come here again with family

This is a very nice recreational area for everyone. Currently some part of it still undergoing construction, etc. The major portion of the area area still accessible.
Just get here very early in the morning, walk by the riverside, let the fresh air pass by you. Cooling and refreshing indeed!
New structures are being added from time to time. At night there are recreational structures that give different moods. But all these man-made stuffs can never beat the fresh early morning walk by the Muar river, sitting in the breeze.
After the morning strolls, go get all Muar has to offer for breakfast! You'll like them all. 😁😂

Tanjung Emas in Muar offers a picturesque waterfront experience, perfect for relaxation and leisurely strolls. The serene ambiance, complemented by the gentle breeze from the Muar River, creates a tranquil atmosphere ideal for escaping the hustle and bustle of city life.
The park's well-maintained pathways and lush greenery provide an inviting setting for picnics, family outings, or simply enjoying a moment of solitude amidst nature. Visitors can also appreciate the charming views of traditional Malay wooden houses and fishing boats dotting the riverbanks, adding to the area's cultural charm.
Additionally, Tanjung Emas boasts recreational facilities such as playgrounds for children and exercise stations for fitness enthusiasts, catering to a diverse range of visitors. The availability of food stalls and vendors selling local delicacies adds to the overall experience, allowing visitors to indulge in the region's culinary delights.
However, it's worth noting that during peak hours, the park can become crowded, impacting the tranquility of the surroundings. Furthermore, occasional littering detracts from the park's beauty and cleanliness, highlighting the need for greater public awareness and responsible waste disposal.
One minor inconvenience to consider is the 50 cents fee for using the public toilets. While this may not be a significant expense, it's important for visitors to be aware of this additional cost.
Overall, Tanjung Emas Muar offers a delightful escape for those seeking a serene waterfront retreat, showcasing the natural beauty and cultural heritage of the region. With its scenic vistas and recreational amenities, it remains a charming destination for locals and tourists alike.

A hidden gem about a 40 minute drive away from Batu Pahat! The natural hot spring water was divided into two sections, one for cooking eggs (too hot for the body!) and one for soaking the feet and body. The water is relatively clean for a free attraction, and there are showers and huts for having your own food. There's also an outer pool at a colder temperature for the kids to have fun. Definitely recommended to come on a cooler day!

Hot spring that is accessible to the general public and is kept in good condition. I think this is another good healing spot for the local people. Besides, it is free of charge. Not only free, but there is also a prayer room provided for the Muslims to perform their solat.
The hot spring is divided into a few pool areas, according to different sets of temperature. We can smell the sulphur content even in a pool that is not really hot (I'm not sure the exact temperature).
For the restroom improvement, I suggest that a regular routine for cleaning can be done, especially during peak hours with a high number of visitors on weekends.

Free entry , parking lot is spacious however more people come here to enjoy the hot spring.
The center is too hot, people just soak their legs. Other than that is okay too soak your body

Quite well maintained,clean area and at the surroundings. But one pool with no water, not for used by the public.Middle/centre well with hot spring water only. Two adults and some children were there when I was at that area. This hot spring is situated far deep in after turning from the main road. Good public amenities at this area.

Adequate parking lots, washroom and prayer rooms are available. Pathway will lead you to a three ringed circular pool (outer, inner and centre).
Centre pool will be hot and could be housing the source of the hot water coming out from the natural hot spring.
Nice place to chill around this vicinity.👍🏻

Peaceful beach area with street vendors, public restrooms & shaded pavilions over the water.
Pantai Minyak beku change so much. Nowadays have a port fishing, camping site,playground and etc. More relax environment this time. Clean and good vibe for family and children. I love it.... but my suggestion avoid late evening and holiday because of jammed and no parking ended up with return back.

Nice place to relax and watch sunset especially with family. Activity walking strolling by the side beach, fishing and kids may play at the playground near by. Not much of activities to do hopefully MBBP can enhance the area more and add more attraction to the place.

It's a nice place for a beautiful view of the Straits of Malacca.
Sadly, not advisable to take a swim but there are short beaches for you to soak your feet and the children can play in the sand.
When we were there, there are families who pitch tents, but I am not sure if there is a need for bookings or permits for this activity. If you are visiting on weekend or holiday. Be aware of an influx of visitors during this period.
There is also a historical site of a well constructed by chiselling stone to the ground which was made by fleeing Siamese soldiers in the 14th century. Nothing grand but a good-to-know how the town of Batu Pahat got its name.
A few eateries are available, much more during weekends & public holidays with food trucks joining in to provide more varieties of food for a food galore.
You may need to arrange your own to & fro transport if you don't have a vehicles.

I would like to give a 3.5. It is absolutely a great spot for a quick evening go to place.
But suggestion is to take a photo of great view, and leave.
Not well maintained nor managed place, full of death fishes, wasted food, dustbin on the floor, everywhere. Very dirty.
Very smelly, anywhere flies as well as worms.
There was a spot for photo but unfortunately it mostly sat by malay young friends, and having drink/eat and smoking there. Hence, can’t really take photo at that spot.
However, absolutely a great view.

Walk past the police station to view Perigi Batu Pahat (Batu Pahat Well), and learn how the town got its name.
If you go in the morning you will meet some ladies who sell fresh catches of the sea. They'll be by the beach selling their wares at affordable prices.

Fresh breath of clean air and chill water. Ample of free parking space and 2 washroom is provided at different locations. The cleanliness is however is very subjective from person to person.

This place was closed on 23 August 2023 when we went there. The signage says "Closed for safety reasons" "ditutup atas faktor keselamatan". No indication of when it will reopen.

My experience, one of the most expensive Campsite you can find is here in Endau-rompin Selai Campingsite. Rm79 for 3d2n per person just for the caping area. Exploring to the waterfall or other activities is an additional expensive package that could easily cost above rm600. 4x4 is needed to reach the campingsite.
Not worth paying for a non activity camp nor activiti camp and no security patrolling the area after 10pm. You are on your own in the middle of the jungle.
No tent is included. All camping gadget and transportation is on your own on this trip.
Fishing is a disappointment. Mostly 2 inches baby fish could be found here.
Tap water is untreated. Need to bring your own water supply.
Definitely not a recommended campsite for the price.

If you want to experience being in a jungle but not yet prepared or capable to travel offroad then this is the right place for you. There’s tarmac road from Bekok town all the way to Lubuk Merekek and Lubuk Tapak. The Lubuk Merekek campsite has toilets and shower facilities as well as surau and a cooking/dining area. However, there’s no electricity so bring sufficient battery powered lights and fans for comfort.
Not too bad. The place is abit run down. But then it has everything in the vicinity. Its considered a huge shopping center for a small town like that.

UK Farm is a peaceful farmstay that offers simple and comfortable accommodations. Aside from lodging, the place also boasts of dining options, a cafe and even a petting zoo where children can get up close with animals like goats, ducks, chickens, ostriches, deer, peacocks, rabbits and horses. The Mini Bus farm tour package comes with feeding sets for the animals as well as guides to help visitors navigate their way around.
Spent almost 2hr there. Can visit mini bird park, goat, deer, ostrich and rabbit. Rm45 adult, Rm35 for kids above 3yo and senior citizen. Quite a hefty price to pay especially if your family is big. I was initially put off by the price tag and some negative comments. Horse cart is RM210 at peak season but can fit 2adult and 2children only. I think it is worth the experience to see the joy of my 4yo enjoying her first bus ride, feeding milk to lamb, petting rabbits and climbing treehouse. The walk is doable, not demanding like Langkawi zoo or Taiping zoo. My girl only asked to be carried at the end. Coconut drink at the end of the trip is like icing on the cake, very refreshing. Toilet at main entrance is clean. Staffs are friendly. 10/10 would recommend for kids.

Suitable for those want a farm experience or never seen farm animals. A good experience for kids though especially if this is their first visit and encounter with farm animals.
Ticket was on a high side relatively to what activities are in site for you. Each visitor will be given a packet of corn, a packet of dried grass/ hay and a coupon to exchange milk feeding bottle. These are for you to feed the animals inside.
When entering inside, you have to wait for the 'bus' which will bring you around the different stations in the farm. Types of animals you can see are goats, kid, ducks, free range chickens, ostriches, peacocks and rabbits. Then you're shown how goat's milk is extracted with option to purchase.
Besides animals, you will stop at the final station for purchasing and enjoying fresh young coconuts at RM6 each.
The only disappointment was the cultural show. You only watch a guy in native costume shooting some balloons using a blow pipe. The performance took less than s minutes.
Final verdict: visit only if you've never been to a farm and wanted a short getaway. Overall itinerary was around 2 hours. If you've seen farm animals, this visit is not for you.

It was cloudy to almost raining which make it a pleasant afternoon trip. Under hot sun can be different story. The staffs were friendly and informative. Unfortunately, goat milk ice-cream is not included in entry ticket. Saw two ostriches, some miniature horses, ducks, chickens, cows and sheep. All are hungry and waiting for visitors to feed. Children find it fun but in my opinion, for that's labour that I paid to do.

Hi, overall experience is okay. We went there after lunch around 3pm. Due to the hot weather, we get tired easily. So make sure you bring plenty of water if you are going after lunch. The best time to visit is in the morning.
We visited 5 places within UK Farm. Only goat farm where we feed them and mini zoo was
worth the visit.
Overall the ticket is pricey but time well spent with family especially with young kids. They were excited to feed the goats, deer and birds.

Went there during the SG June holidays. It was fun and eye-opening for my kids age 8 to 11yo esp when they hardly have a chance to feed farm animals.
The tour was slow paced. Took close to 1.5h.

Hmm, pretty run-down. Even the “bus” we took, seems like will be split into two anytime 🙈 also, the farm open at 9am, but bus start at 10am, no info was given when I texted to check whether needed booking. Finally until 10am, the bus driver only slowly check his car, fill the petrol etc 🤦🏻♀️ arent you suppose to check BEFORE 10am??? The toddler waiting since 9am has gone haywire 😴 still, it’s a one-time experience for us, with no intention to come back anymore. Not worth the money.

Took the Bus Tour, tour guide was pretty fluent in English. The rest of the staff were generally very friendly.
The Facilities were pretty old and not well maintained, including the bus and some of the animal enclosures.
Feeding of the animals (goats, chicken, ostrich and deer) was still enjoyable, but better care could be given to some of the animals.
Overall experience was okay, but I have been to better farms in Malaysia than this one.

The tour was in Malay and we do not understand.
Yes, they have lots of goats, a few chickens, ducks, rabbits and deers and 1 ostrich.
Normal. The farm is big but nothing much.
They do some selling (goat milk and coconut drinks).
The last stop was the coconut drink and we were waiting for the bus. Apparently, there is no bus and we walked back (a short distance) to the entrance. Should have communicated better.
If nearby, ok.
1 visit is enough.

You can experience feeding goat, baby goat are cute, you can feed milk with them.
The farm bus is old and output very dirty exhaust, run on very bumpy road.

Enough capacity of car park.
There’s a restaurant and souvenir shop as well.

Different people will have different experiences and expectations. 3D2N Church weekend here. Food is edible, some dishes are tasteless. Night bus tour is a waste of time, only saw 2 firefly and driver and 2 assistant didn’t announce anything, the just shine the light aimlessly, so everyone on the bus are guessing through the night drive into the wilderness. Day bus is a ok, if you have been to other animal park, this is the 10%, but if you never been to any, then this should make up to 50%. Guest room is stay-able, air conditioner in the daytime is very challenging.

We visited the UK farm and participated in the farm tour ( 2 hour rm45 /pax.). Excellent experience feeding the ostrich, deers, chickens, sheep and goats.The tour guide is Amalia, a university intern at the farm. She is always smiling and explains to us patiently the goat milking process, the difference between a sheep and a goat etc. Well done! Also went to the fruit farm to buy the best passion fruits in the world and the gac fruit juice ( also attended to by a lovely senior couple). Everyone should come here for the experience, fresh goat milk and yogurt ( yogurt preferred original flavor). Particularly thing that leaves a deep impression is the customer service and warm Malaysian hospitality given by the university interns (Amalia dan Kawan dia) . The country has a lot of potential as seen from the zest and positivity from its young people. We wish the young graduating interns all the best! Kita dan mereka semua boleh! 😀 The UK farm is a MUST visit if you are coming to Kluang . Kita akan datang lagi!👏👏👏

The goats milk was tasty and it also have a lot of other products like ice cream, soap and etc.

Kluang Mall is a spacious enclosed shopping center that boasts a variety of well-known brands and eateries, as well as entertainment options such as a cinema and bowling alley. The mall is managed efficiently with eye-catching murals adorning the walls next to the toilets, while advertisements are displayed throughout including on lift doors. One of its main attractions includes Pacific Hypermarket which offers items at affordable prices. However, signboards directing towards lifts and toilets need improving for better visibility.
Nice ambient, good mall design, only need to make your signboards (especially guiding towards lift and toilet) more seeable...

Gunung Lambak is a recreational mountain rising 510 meters above sea level. The peak features various paths and stairs, making it an excellent destination for hikers and daily exercise enthusiasts alike. The mountain has two trails, one of which is steep and challenging while the other is more relaxed, perfect for descending. Visitors can enjoy stunning views from the top but may experience some crowding during peak times when many hikers have already reached the summit.
Family hiking with kids as young as 9 years old. Not difficult but just need a little assistance by adults.

A good and safe place for hiking. There are two trails to cater for hikers with different strengths.
A place where one can appreciate the wonder of nature.
Please try to understand the routes from the map before ones ascend.

A famous mountain for daily exercise but it is a good place for hikers to train especially those who are staying in Johor or Singapore.
Few trails could access to the peak with aprox. 1~2 hours. If you feel that's not enough for you...plan for the the trip that Lambak twin peaks plus Big tree which takes approx. 5~6 hours.

Easy hike to the half peak, the challenge starts after the half peak to the peak where climbing on the ropes is required and steep at certain meters
Edmond Yeoh — Google review
Great place. Got two trails. One is a little bit hard and steep. Godd for hiking and another one is chill and good for going down. Free of charge and also a lot of monkeys here. The top view is nice but a little bit small for peak times where all the hikers already reached the top. Not too tall but still worth for the experiences

Visited on a weekday to escape from the crowd. Out & back took less than 2hrs (1hr to summit, 50mins down) climbing up is easy but the descent is a little challenging as one need to be very careful of the roots. There will be ropes for assistance on the tough bits.

Lovely place to hike, view is amazing and the best is that there is a water park nearby to cool off and shower!
Of course the facilities is not all fantastic but thats how being in nature is like. You’ll find a way.
First time here and I managed to reach the summit even though I was panting relentlessly through out, the view at the top makes it all work 💯
Also, I didn’t realize but I took the steeper route (turn left when you see the huge sign) and thankfully I had my partner push me up certain parts of it, it was really steep so be warned!
Hikers are all friendly, mostly with a friendly hello! 👋

Didn't make it to the summit as started too fast and got very tired. Rather steep. Need to bring lots of drinking water to prevent dehydration. Toilet facilities are poor and not well maintained.
Elaine Quek — Google review
Went there on a sunny day. The trails were dry. Hiking was quite challenging due to multiple steep slopes, but everything went smoothly. It took me 2 hours to reach the peak and another 1 hour to go back down. I would recommend that you slow it down further if you are a beginner. Take your time hiking from one slope to another.
It is 510m to the peak from the sea level. Definitely not a good start for a beginner, but a good training place for people who are getting ready for a long hike.
Quite crowded at the entrance. The road to the entrance was too narrow for 2 cars passing by each other. So please be patient. There were quite a lot of small stalls selling drinking water, coconut juice, medicine and many other interesting stuff and food. The toilet was available too, at the entrance.
The view on top was nice. The hiking was worth it.
Please do regular exercise 1 week before hiking to build up stamina, wear proper shoes during hiking and bring enough water/snacks.

If you're interested in hiking here, Google gunung lambak trail head. That will bring you to the start of the hike. This location will bring you inside a Taman to a dead end.
( For beginners)
I was hiking using an app called all trail which guided me and also a few blogs which told me which way to follow . To be honest I feel both route is steep at some level. But if it's raining , the route becomes muddy and super slippery, so be warned.
There's 2 route that you can take( not an expert here) , after walking straight you'll see a draw bridge , if you cross that you'll go up an easier path, if you don't take that and walk straight you'll have to climb up stairs . Than you'll meet at one part which a huge signboard which says gunung lambak. There you have again 2 options. The left route is faster but abit steep. There were ropes but I wasn't confident as it was raining so I tooth the right side which was longer but you'll be happy with the view. It took me 4 hours for a slow hike up and down, but alot of people I encountered said it took them 2 to 3 hours .
There's alot of people whom hike here, even kids. So If you were curious you can ask them questions about how to get up. Just warm up and stretch off before and after the hike.
Surendran Mahendran — Google review
Came from singapore to try this! Was a great experience..took me 3 hours in total to climb up, take pics at the summit and descend back down. Challenging trail, especially as it gets closer to the summit. I couldn’t find toilets to shower at after the hike, that’s the reason of me dropping a 4 star review. Maybe a good shower facility for the visitors would be great!

Waterfall & toilet 15 minutes steep uphill walk from carpark.
2hr slow walk from carpark to Tower Viewpoint at 600m altitude with multiple breaks. 1hr if you run.
1hr+ to descend slowly to waterfall without breaks. 20mins if you run.
2 hrs at waterfall per se.
Note gate closure timing when you enter. If not - you will have to climb out...
After that you go to Durian Dusun Landak top up carbs. 😁

They collected parking fee for each car but we came here end up with disappointment. Many were still inside enjoying but they said they're closed for maintenance. Parking also lousy ...we were all the way up but they said cannot park here lah...cannot park there lah...rude enough those guard post men. No cone / cordon/ even sign boad. Mentioning" no parking" but simply " halau people !

Nice peaceful greenery. Take a hike, relatively manageable for most ages, though crossing parts of the stream can be a little slippery, so just be more careful. Highly recommend to make your way to the waterfall and take a dip there. Climb up the big rock and take some nice pictures! Water is maybe to below waist level at certain parts, not deep. You can just walk back to your car after that, and there are some toilets around the parking area if you need a quick shower.

Follow the Google map on gunung pulai waterfall and will direct you to the car park safely. Reached to this waterfall on 1/9/2022 at 1.20pm. Paid the entrance fee RM3 per car only at the booth before reaching the parking area. You will be given a parking ticket and need to hand over the ticket to the staff (villager) at the parking area. So don't throw away the entrance ticket yea. There are plenty of parking. Just find a spot nearer to the entrance. The entrance to the park or waterfall is FREE and you just need to register yourself by filling up your name and contact phone number on the book at the main gate before hiking into the waterfall. There are lots of monkeys at the park. So please look after your own belongings especially if you bring food along. The monkeys will target on you if you carry plastic bags. The distance from the main gate to the waterfall is only 1km and take less than 20mins. As long as I see. There are three tier waterfalls. First one is very beautiful but usually occupied by family with kids. The second one is a small waterfall but very deep. The third one requires a bit of careful hiking as it is on the side way via the slippery rocks. But the third one is very beautiful with emerald crystal clear water pool. Cold and refreshing. There was a sign erected to inform public that no smoking is permitted but sadly, none of the human beings care about that sign. Cigarettes smoking and vaping are very common and contaminate our fresh air in the park. Truly annoying as the non smokers need to find ways to avoid them as a plagues. Selfish smokers!! None of the authority was stationed in the park to monitor it. There are toilets with water prepared nearby the waterfall. Hygiene can be improved. Some family was setting fire for BBQ and creating some smokes as well. The waterfall is pretty clean but still some discarded bottles were seen in the park. During my visit, some piping were burst and the water was ejected through the leaked hole. Clean water was wasted for nothing. Hope the authority will patron the area and repair it. The park is also good for hiking towards the peak. The waterfall hiking is suitable for senior citizens and kids. Recommended 👍👍👍

In order to promote preservation of this unique mangrove habitat, Pulau Kukup is declared as a RAMSAR site on 31 January 2003. In year 1997, it is protected as a national park under the Johor State Park Corporation Enactment 1989. Kukup Island or Pulau Kukup is one of the biggest inhabited mangrove sites in the world. There are various species of wildlife there in the national park. They are monkeys, wild boar, mudskipper and much more.
Do visit tanjung piai, another mangrove habitat in Johor, not far away from kukup island. Famous johor hotels such as the Grand Blue Waves Hotel Johor Bahru provide luxurious stay and services for visitors. It is situated in the heart of Johor Bahru, thus, it is not far away from the City Square Johor Bahru. City Square Johor Bahru is a shopping centre and office building that was opened in the year of 1995. It is the tallest building in Johor Bahru and attracts tourists especially Singaporeans.

Food was delicious, parking wise very limited but you can drive into the restaurant. Avoid PH and weekends.
JPO, the initial factory outlet in Johor and Southeast Asia, is a must-visit destination for avid shoppers. Situated conveniently in Indahpura, Kulai, it attracts a large crowd from Malaysia as well as Singaporeans and other travellers passing through. With over 130 shops, JPO offers a wide range of international brands such as Coach, Adidas, Timberland, and Lego. It is the sole luxury brand outlet in Southeast Asia since its grand opening in 2011.
Shop till you drop! Nice location plus easy access via Senai highway or North South expressway. Big and spacious parking space. Well maintain and organized establishment. You will do a lot of walking due to long and spacious shop/store inside the compound. So many luxury brand offered here. Well done to all the staff and management for their effort and hardworking to make this place a well deserved 5 stars tourist destination. Keep it up!

This is quite a nice place to do window shopping. The outlet is beautifully put together with nice open shaded walkways, plants and fans to keep it cool. It's outdoors if it wasn't clear enough. Lots of well known expensive brands here with, supposedly, good deals/discounts every day. Food wise, there are not a lot of options here and most of them are generally busy so plan your meals properly and avoid peak eating times.
Tip: They do Group Tours where groups of 15 or more folks can get a Shopping Passport that gives them even more discounts.

One of the biggest premium outlets in Malaysia. Plenty top branded shops. It's not contained in 1 big building or complex so it can be a bit hot during hot season & I bet during raining season it can be a bit messy. Ample parking spaces, reasonable f&b options & most shops had sale promotions.

A great place to shop and spend time. It's a premium outlet mall. What's there more to said :). Shop and eat and shop again. Kids friendly place, clean and with restroom on level 1 and 2. Grab from CS mall for around 18-20 RMB.

Johor Premium outlet is a much better outlet than when it first started.
Housing many designer brands across its two levels, this place attracts large groups of people almost everyday. Most stores also give discounts for the products which are a significant difference to its original price. Mostly clothes and shoe shops and a few coffee and food shops.
Due to hot weather fans have been designed to blow mist along with wind blowing colder air. Overall great experience would come back again

Nice place to shop, especially during end of year sale. However, expect crowd during weekends or public holiday. Due to the high number of visitor, makan place tend to be full and long queue all the time. Best to avoid coming over for meal unless if you are going for fast food options. Not many choices of food there as that's not the main thing. The main point is the DISCOUNT and SALE. If you're looking for wedding, birthday, anniversary or whatever gifts, this is the best place 👍 Total damage of the day RM2k but worth it 💸💸

Nice outlet. It has most of the brands with resnoble prices. And it is on my way to the airport as it is 10 minutes only. They don't have lockers, so I have to go to the information centre to store the lagge in the store room. The good thing is that it's free of charge, but make sure to have a lock 🔐 in each bag. Other ways they will be rejected as safety procedures. Overall, it was good for shopping before the flight.
Ahmed Hamed Al-Aidaros — Google review
Many well known and niche brands available.
Luxuries are very so slightly cheaper than retail but designs are limited and from past season.
Some are also specifically made for outlets (meaning simpler design and lower quality zippers) so make sure you know how to differentiate between past season models vs outlet models.
Sports brands offer the best prices compared to other genres.
Multiple fast food eateries and restaurants available here.
I spent about 3.5 hours here (1hr queueing for coach as it has the longest line).

Surprisingly cheaper than some other factory outlets. The feeling of buying from a place filled with branded stuff and getting a cheap option. Shoes are going at a good price, some bedsheets cheaper than shopee. Lulumon if u can find your size, some of the apparel are going at more than 50% discount. Only problem is this place is about 45 mins from ksl or Bukit indah. Come here only if you are willing to shop till you drop. The water cooler here doesn’t seem to be very effective so better bring your own water bottle. Also an umbrella would be good cos the shops and shelters are not connected. The Nike shoe I posted is before 30% discount so it’s actually about 60-70sgd for a Nike air !!! Definitely going back to get another pair. Also, shoes sizes are plenty in stock compared to other factory outlets

The place and atmosphere was good. I was expecting prices to be cheaper as well. Apart from several well known brands, most of the shops sells at a higher price. You can expect the Singapore IMM price or higher in most of the shops. ( If you have access to IMM, i feel like it is a better alternative to this)

Mangroves are important but attractive places to visit and I think this National

We took a detour from Kukup to visit this nature park. It was a nice walk through the mangrove swamp. Was an overall enjoyable visit marred by the plastic trash strewn all about the mangrove swamp. The Tanjung Piai fishing pier had also collapsed, and so did the trail into the forest, which was disappointing. What could have been a 3 hour experience was shortened to just 1.5 hour. The park should be better managed. Overall, it’s still worth a visit to enjoy a part of the natural landscape that Johor has to offer.

LEGOLAND Malaysia is a vibrant resort hotel that offers themed rooms, two restaurants, an outdoor pool, and kids' play areas. It is situated just across the causeway from Singapore and provides numerous fun attractions and activities for families. The theme park is highly recommended and has a variety of rides with varying queue lengths. For those with small children, there are many kid-friendly games on the right side of the park. Visitors should stay hydrated since the park is massive.
Overall it is good but the parking lot should have rooftops because rm 10 per entry since.... Should upgrade and also some of the Lego and facilities are faded. But my kids still loves playing . My below 12 year old children loved it. Suitable for above 6- 15

Overall a good experience, some areas had more for toddlers to do than other areas, our little guy loved the airport and the observation tower. We missed the only showing in the main theater, it would have been nice to have two showings during the day.
Food was good, nothing great, but the price was good unlike some other parks where they really try to gouge you. Still, lots of items unavailable (soft serve ice cream).
The park is really showing it’s age, it must be quite hard to keep it up in such a harsh environment but overall still looking god.

100% experience for children! From the moment you enter, you will be greeted by huge play structures and Lego play areas in the lobby, and on its side, a little stage where the awesome crew and Lego characters will host (very well-received) performances for children multiple times a day.
It is a whole experience built around children, and they know it. The child-sized sinks and toilets, multiple play corners everywhere, disco lights in the lift that make all of them dance, performances, thickly carpeted floors throughout the hotel, play-themed hotel rooms with decorations built from Lego and an extensive Junior menu, all of which make them feel so welcome and know that this is a place for them. (Special shout-out to the leftmost dancer / crew member in the photo here, we saw him working hard in the day building structures with kids, and conducting multiple dance performances throughout the day until late at night. Each time he danced with a lot of enthusiasm with many details added to his dancing, kudos to him!)
The theme parks themselves are quite big too, with lots of things to do for kids of various ages (although do see the height restrictions guide on the website). We got a combo ticket for three parks across two days. While our child was only 96cm tall, there were still so many things to do and see in both the main theme park and water park, that we could not even finish both and had to skip Sea Life (smallest park). Miniland in particular was really great too, with so much detail in each sculpture.
Do check the website for attractions that are undergoing renovations or remodeling!

Went to all the attractions, both theme park and waterpark. Food tastes good in the theme park. I had a really great time even though I was travelling with all my toddlers. Super family friendly. The hotel staff; special mention to Suzie from Bricks and Lynn from entertainment. They were really excellent with their service! But the toilet cleanliness could be better. Hence, the four stars. Nevertheless, it's a super family-friendly hotel resort. There is nothing comparable, hands down.

We enjoyed this place very much. The LEGO structures of different countries’ popular tourist destinations were well done and are stunningly amazing! We enjoyed the rides and the interactive shows/games. Well worth the price tickets. A bonding time we treasure as a family.
When I find more photos, I will upload them here.

My third time visiting; the last being in 2017. Well-maintained with physical improvements. They have also expanded the area with more rides/attractions.
Unfortunately, we were not able to cover the entire theme park due to intermittent rain in the afternoon (rides closed).
Overall a great destination for family fun.

Spend the whole day at the theme park but still wish we had plenty more time to try all the rides. Some rides queue are quite long(more than 30 minutes) some not so much. Highly recommended! For those who come with small children turn right first since more kids friendly games are there. Make sure you drink a lot of water since the park is very big.

Great place for families with young children. The theme park lots of activities to keep the children engaged all day. I would definitely recommend the miniland and imagination areas to inspire the kids

Great place for kids and adults who enjoy Lego. There loads of Lego bricks everywhere to build as per your imagination. There are games and shows in between like speed challenge, meet Lego characters, dance and watch Lego movies. The theme based rooms are amazing. I booked a pirate theme. The rooms are pricey but worth enjoying for 1 night. There is puzzle to solve which opens a chest containing Lego free gift. There are separate beds for adults and bunk bed for kids. The breakfast spread was amazing though they give 45 minutes and time slots to manage the heavy rush. The theme park is good but expensive with tickets costing 249 and 199 MYR for adult and kid respectively.

A regular visitor here for last 10 years (now it’s like our hometown) especially when you have growing kids even though it takes a 3.5 to 4 hours drive from KL.
If you have growing kids and wish to be a regular, purchasing the annual passes is more worthy than day entry tickets. As normal theme park rules, no outside food or drinks allowed. They will check your bags. Food and drinks sold inside is definitely costly than outside. Well, it’s a commercial business that needs to survive.
A place kids enjoyed spending their time rather than being on gadgets. Suggest to visit middle of the month on weekend, non-school holidays and weekday.

There are some rides that are more tame and slow for younger kids and there are also some that are more suitable for older kids and adults. The food options were pretty good. Expensive compared to other Malaysian restaurants, but cheaper than Universal or Disneyland. The park isn’t too big, so it’s all rides are within walking distance. We went midweek, so there was barely any wait time for most of the rides.
Overall, it was a great experience and we will be definitely be visiting again when we come back to Johor.

Suitable place for children to learn soft skill while playing the games... for 1 day pass it is almost impossible to finish all games here. But just like me and my family, we go for annual pass and i believe more than 10 times we had come here since. Enjoyable and good for your leg workout... ha³

Everything was awesome for the kids.
Family-friendly theme park. All rides were open and no queue when we visited on weekdays. You need at least 2 days to explore all the rides.
It's worthed if you have kids from 2-12 years old.
The toilet was clean and the staff was kind.

It was crowded due to public holiday in Malaysia and Singapore. The waiting time for the rides ranging from min. 20min to 50min. Fun for the kids, however some of the displays were quite rundown. Nevertheless still worth the visit!

It’s my first time ever visiting a Legoland. It was a wonderful experience although it was a rainy day. I am absolutely a Lego lover and I brought kids aged 3 and 5 there. It was a pity my 3yo boy couldn’t ride many of the rides there but he enjoyed seeing the miniature world, driving the junior cars, boat, and train.
My 5yo also took other rides which he enjoyed. There was very little wait (nearly no waiting) on the day we visited. (It was a Thursday.)
It’s not a big park but totally enough attractions for a family like ours to spend a whole day there.
It’s a pity that the miniature world is a bit too old and many little details I believe there was are no longer functioning (and all white bricks are now tan colored ). But one area is renovating, hopefully they will renew the area soon.
I’m sure I will revisit this park with my children if I come again to Singapore+Malaysia.
Staff are also very friendly and helpful.

We got lucky to upgrade our theme park day pass to an annual pass for free. 1 day is not enough for the theme park. The Water park is way too hot, you need to wear UV swimwear and lots of UV protection cream. Overall experience is good for children. They're already happy even just staying at the hotel and just doing the Lego bricks. Need to plan if you are not local as there are timings and days when the parks are closed. Also, if your child is shorter than 106 cm, better to postpone as a lot of rides require height to be at least 106 cm.

5/5! Excellent park! All rides open! It’s not boring to go there as an adult! I love the racing coaster and the dragon! ☺️ full fay spent! Recommend to go separate days with the water park! So you have a whole day to explore. The water log flume ride should be taken as last ride as it’ll really soak you up. The machine driers don’t really work so ya 🤣 the tower ride can be taken during sunset for a superb view of the whole area! Good day for kids and adults alike!
Fun there, food was good too! Ate at the kings grill. The sauce was yummy!

Around 2 or 3 big stations is closed for maintenance. Services quite slow even queue is long. And if you listen only sound of staff like Woo Hooo!, or Welcome back and hope you are enjoy! You can feel like here is a funny place but it so different with staff face being.
Good place but only one time in your life is enough.

It's beautiful and entertaining for the kids. There are a variety of options to thrill the kids - sea aquarium, rides, toy train, water park, puppet show etc Quite a happy place too for the adults. Nice eateries. There are places to sit & relax while your kid is busy. The best part is it isn't as crowded as these places usually are.

Raviyn Norris — Google review
A nice and interesting place that can be visited by families with children. The rides are more suitable for children up to 12 years old because the games are mostly for small children. Visiting on weekdays, when entering the rides there is no queue. Legoland has many restaurants and baby care rooms that are spacious and clean, for mothers who still have to breastfeed their children.
dina valentina — Google review
No proper shelter, it's difficult to move during hot weather and rain. Not much activities for kids below 105cm. Otherwise it's good. One more thing the shops at the theme area show have a service to send your purchases to the main store while will be easier for you to collect when leaving.

Puteri Harbour is a picturesque waterfront area featuring luxury apartments, restaurants, and retailers. The Puteri Harbour Family Theme Park is a popular attraction offering beautiful views for family photos, food stalls for hungry families, and a shopping center for souvenirs. It's highly recommended as an interesting and low ambient light place to take a walk during the weekend.
This place is a perfect family leisure destination and a great spot for couples to spend quality time. It's ideal for leisurely walks, enjoying beautiful scenery, and unwinding. While electric bike rentals used to be available in the past, they are now prohibited for safety reasons to protect pedestrians. The atmosphere here is incredibly relaxed, allowing you to stroll along the seaside, marvel at the graceful yachts on the water. What's even more exciting is the captivating music fountain, which has become a major highlight of this place. Additionally, you can explore various bars and restaurants, savor delicious cuisine, enjoy a few drinks, and add more fun to your outing. In summary, this is undoubtedly a memorable destination, whether you're having a family gathering or spending time with friends. I will definitely return.
Genie Lew — Google review
Puteri Harbour is the ultimate chill-out spot, offering something for everyone day and night. As the sun sets, the harbor transforms into a vibrant hub of activity, perfect for unwinding with a cold beer and soaking in the relaxed atmosphere. But when the sun is up, it's all about exploring the scenic beauty of the harbor on two wheels. Whether you're cycling along the waterfront or simply admiring the view of the majestic ships, every moment spent at Puteri Harbour is a feast for the senses. So grab a drink, hop on your bike, and get ready for an unforgettable day of relaxation and adventure at this charming waterfront destination. 🥰
Desmond — Google review
For the views alone, I'd give this a solid 4/5. You will enjoy strolling along the harbour leisurely, but don't expect anything magnificent. There are a handful of yachts here and there. It might be a little too warm in the morning. The view is equally excellent at night.
There are several bars and restaurants here. There is also 1 Starbucks and 1 massage parlour. I believe there is also 1 juice bar nearby. Other than that, best of luck trying to find anything else within walking distance. The retail occupancy rate is extremely low. There are empty stalls everywhere. My recommendation is to tamper your expectations and not expect this to be anything like Sentosa Cove.

Puteri Harbor Family Theme Park is very famous since today. Many visitors take this opportunity to spend time on vacation with their beloved families. Among the advantages of this theme park is the beautiful view and suitable for family photos, especially at dusk. In addition, there are several food stalls available for hungry families. In addition, there is also a shopping center for visitors to buy souvenirs and other items. I recommend this theme park to families who want to spend time together this holiday.

This is a waterfront promenade. There are some restaurants and bars nearby. At night the views is quite nice due to the lighting and visitors can just stroll around. Kids can ride along the promenade in some ride along for a fee. There are also a few make shift stalls selling flowers, toys , souvenirs etc.

Though it’s a tourist attraction point, there is nothing much to do.

If you sit on the side of the river in a charming place, it is nice to see the cool breeze of the river and the price in front. And there are many small shops next to them where ice cream and drinks are available. The most suitable time is from afternoon to evening. Lighting the trees after dusk makes it look so beautiful. All in all a wonderful moment 🥰

Lovely place to hangout with friend the love one and family! Many outlets like restaurant, bar, games, groceries, Starbuck, mamak and much more ! This place also got dancing fountain water which it's dancing following the beats of the song. On days you can visit and enjoy the views of art made from recycled iron along side the puteri harbour you can also overview from the bridge. The very best view were at night , the environment is so stunningly beautiful with the atmosphere of many lights . People were also ride the harbour using the electric scooter that can be rent for easier touring. All the beautiful scene can be capture here, the skies full of bubbles from kid around the harbour ! I highly recommend this place to hang out and visit one of the most beautiful place in johor ! 100/10 very recommended

Sanrio Hello Kitty Town is an amusement park that features various activities for young families to enjoy. It includes a playground, a Kitty House, and craft sessions with live entertainment. The park has three levels, each themed after popular characters like Hello Kitty, Bob the Builder, and Thomas the Train. The staff are friendly and accommodating in every level of the establishment. Prices are reasonable especially when compared to other currencies. This attraction is highly recommended for families looking for fun things to do while on vacation.
Fantastic place for young families to spend a day having fun. There is so many activities for kids to do that naming them all would take to long. There are 3 levels, each with a theme from Hello Kitty, Bob the Builder and Thomas the train. Every level is well presented and the staff there are so friendly and helpful. The prices if converted from a strong currency is very worthwhile. Definitely a place to visit if your planning a holiday. Very Well done!
John Nguyen — Google review
This is our 3rd time visiting hello kitty land, our kids really enjoy it, 3 and 4 year old during our first visit and now 4 and 5 year old and still they enjoying it. Can spend about 2-3 hour at hello kitty land, and Thomas is a MUST visit, they are the best among these 2 places, it’s a kids mini fun fair but with 1 ticket at unlimited ride. Cheaper than going fun fair of s$5-$8 per ride. Good visit and fun for kids. They can play and jump around a whole day.

Great for toddlers and kids slightly above 110cm to enjoy all rides. It has Barney, Thomas, and Bob the builder shows on weekdays and my children love it very much. Credit for offering multiple entries within a day as you can go out for a quick lunch. We also appreciate the free credit on playing the arcades.

Hello Kitty & Sanrio’s friend very cute but Very pricey entrance fees ! As the Hello Kitty land was VERY VERY small , not thing much to see and play . All of us ( Me , my hubby & 2 kids ) agreed with this is a bored attraction. Other than few activities ( decorating the Cookies, make your own badge ... ) nothing much to do over there . Not worth it . Think twice before you come .

A very exciting theme park for young girls. You can purchase admission ticket to Hello Kitty Town only, or two-park entry, to Thomas Town, which shares the same building but on a different floor. Allocate at least half a day to indulge in this attraction. Do take note that purchasing your theme park ticket(s) online is more convenient and cheaper than purchasing it at the counter. Plus, sometimes, discount codes are available on their official website.

If you are hello kitty lover, than u must visit this place because everything here is hello kitty and friends; Bob the builder, and so on. This place is actually suitable for kids because they can play a lots of indoor cute game. As a parent, u no need to worry because all the game is safe. Also, got performance from hello kitty, this is so adorable 😍 i miss this moment. The entrance fee for local tourist is around rm1++

Tiger Brewery Tour is a hugely popular attraction in Singapore that teaches you the whole process of beer making from brewing to packaging. You can enjoy a beer tasting session with as many as seven different types of beers at the Tiger Tavern on your visit.
I really enjoyed the tour of the Tiger Brewery. The person giving the tour did a good job going over the brewing process as well as showing all of the equipment. Also the fact that the equipment was automated was cool to see as well! And lastly, the tasting part is a lot of fun, as it is in a bar setting and you can try multiple drinks including the experimental. The experimental drink that I had was the tiger twist, which I found to be smooth and fruity, which was pretty good! Overall, a really good beer tour!
Patrick Schomacker — Google review
The tiger brewery tour takes you through the brewery process and the packaging process, followed by a tasting session in the Tiger Tavern. You are given 4 tickets which you can redeem for various beers. 1 ticket for local beers, 2 for imported beers and 4 for cocktails. No food during covid period but peanuts are complimentary to go with your beers. The tiger tavern is a nice place to chill and relax. You are allowed to stay in it for at least 1.5h

I had a free tour experience with Singapore Rewards. The location is far from the city but can be reached using the metro and bus.
The tour itself at the brewery in the beginning felt rushed like you need to keep up on what the tour guide is saying. My favorite part is the correct pouring of the beer and free samplers at the end of the tour. They also gave me a free passport holder which I’m still using.

The actual tour, with Sara, was fantastic, very interesting and at a good speed. Unfortunately, the “tiger tavern” after was a complete letdown. Truly terrible service, especially from one blind woman behind the bar who first told me “come back” then “bring back glasses first” whenever I tried to order a drink. Finally, we got the beefy fries which were extremely bland, went to ask for salt and they told me they didn’t have any. I wonder what Kind of kitchen doesn’t have any salt.

I wasn't able to join any distillery/winery tours in my previous travels and took the opportunity to join an excursion that included a stop at the Tiger Brewery at the outskirts of Singapore.
The trip was rather brief, about 40 minutes from downtown and takes your across hilly, winding suburbs before going on the expressway to Malaysia. Quite a nice variety in scenery.
The tour itself was so-so. We looked at barley, yeast, metal vats, and conveyor belts. Nothing really new and there wasn't really interesting about the Tiger history or the brewing process; surely you can look this over online.
A little disappointing was that the bottling plant had paused production after completing a run in the morning of our trip so there was no activity to speak of. If there is a way to coordinate with the tour in ensuring that there is actually some manufacturing at the time of your visit, I highly suggest that.
The tour concludes at a recreated pub inside the distillery. Some finger food is available at additional cost. The ambiance of the pub was great but, of course, the alchohol is limited to what Tiger brews. My favourite among those I tried was the Edelweiss wheat beer.
Jet Koo — Google review
Very good tour of the Asia pacific brewery, you learn about history of APB, the process of how beer is brewed and packaged. Can get to win yourself some free beers too when you answer their quiz. Try your hand at tapping the beer too. After that you get to redeem some beer from the Tiger Tavern after the tour. This is truly a wholesome tour.
Expect to climb stairs though, so not really for those who may have issues with stairs climbing.

This place is a gem! The tour is reasonably priced, and a great value! The tour was well conducted and very informative, it’s really cool to see how it is done end to end. And plus you get to pour your own beer, then you get a drink at the tavern and then drink coupons. So awesome! And the beer was fresh and cold and awesome. A must do tour!

The Tiger Brewery tour is truly fantastic! I purchased two tickets through Klook for just $35, and it exceeded my expectations. Not only did we get to explore the brewery, but we also received a complimentary Tiger keychain and had the delightful opportunity to sample freshly brewed beers. It was an all-around fantastic experience!
MJ Lucky — Google review
$25 for the adult ticket during the weekend, the tour runs approximately an hour while it will go through the history of Tiger beer and awards won. After that, it will start explaining the four main ingredients of the beer. Next, visit the brewery house and packing house, where no photography is allowed, as well as the video that will be played afterwards. At the end of the tour, you will get the chance to learn how to serve a pint of beer perfectly, you can taste it as well. After the tour, there is a gift shop back in where the tour starts and next to it on the right-hand side is the bar. You can get a free pint of beer inside with five sample tickets which you can choose which type of beer you wanna try. I got a souvenir when I left the bar. I think the tour is amazing and definitely worth it.

Interesting tour, showing the beginning of the brand and taking you through the betting and bottling process. The Company is impressively conscious about their carbon footprint and uses sunlight in the brewing process, sends the spent grains to feed animals and even made the cans microscopically thinner, which saves tons of aluminum having to be used. The grounds are stunning, featuring tropical plants and even a star fruit tree.
Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Bonus: you get to enjoy a drink in their tavern and can order pub-style food. My hubby wants to order the Grilled Kim Cheese sandwich, but I’ll be less adventuresome and enjoy the truffle fries.

The tour was really enjoyable! We went for the 3pm one on a Saturday and the group was almost full. Walking around the brewery, you really get a feel of how difficult it is to brew beer, and at this scale too.
After about an hour of walking in the heat, (it will get hot) we finally arrived at the Tavern and got a half pint of Tiger and 5 tickets for 120ml samples of a selection of other beer. You can buy extra beer at very cheap prices and they have a nice selection of beer grub too. Definitely a fun couple hours and recommended if you are looking for a half day activity.

Few rides were closed which was duly informed at the counter upon payment.
It was good because it was not crowded.
The place was Peaceful, you can go on and on for your rides as there was no time wasting on the queue.
Toliets were big and adequate.
Ample lockers could be rent to keep your belongings.
Would be much happier if the Water could be cleaner and probably some loud music going on!

It is a sad visit and ruined the remaining part of our trip having 2 sicky kids on tow. PLEASE DO SOMETHING TO KEEP VISITORS SAFE!!

Hi guys. I went to the water park today with total of 9 people. My total spending was RM 342 (entry alone per pad) and RM 80 for two big lockers. But we were totally disappointed with the maintenance and ugly environment. The water all over the park were in greenish colour cause uncomfortable feel and got some sand under the water as well. Before going here, I searched their Facebook page and got to known offer of RM 38 for per entry. What’s the point offering this when the park looked terrible. We only spent less than a hour and brought this issue to management. Hope they will take this as a lesson and tend to keep this place and water clean, comfort and worthy for the penny we are paying.

My recent visit to Austin Heights Water & Adventure Park left much to be desired. The pool water was disappointingly dirty, making it unappealing for swimming. Additionally, I was disappointed to find out that the wave pool was under renovation during my visit, which was a major attraction I was looking forward to experiencing.
Moreover, it was disheartening to discover that several attractions such as the trampoline, high elements, and more were permanently closed. These closures significantly reduced the available activities, leaving visitors with limited options for entertainment.
Overall, the condition of the park and the closures of key attractions detracted from what could have been an enjoyable experience. I hope that the management addresses these issues promptly to enhance the visitor experience in the future.

Almost everything is closed in the water park. If your kid is not tall enough, they can only play one ride. It looks run down as well.
But we went to the trampoline park and got the whole place to ourselves. We liked it a lot and the 1hr is all we have there.
We were also disappointed that the go kart is also closed.
Summary: only the trampoline and water park is open.
