We almost didn't book Malaysia. Three weeks later we were standing in the South China Sea after spotting wild orangutans in Borneo, wondering why we ever hesitated. Here's our full 3 week route, honest tips and everything we learned.

We landed with low expectations and left genuinely impressed. Here's our honest 3 day Kuala Lumpur itinerary, including the one famous street food spot we'd actually skip.

We saw 12 wild orangutans in a single morning, and the moment before the first one appeared is something we'll never forget. Our complete 5 day Kuching guide, including Bako National Park and Semenggoh.

Three days wasn't enough. We snorkelled with sea turtles and reef sharks in some of the clearest water we've ever seen. Here's how to get there, where to stay and how many days you actually need.

A wrong turn on a scooter led to one of the best parts of our entire trip. Sky Bridge views, a private mangrove tour and jetski island hopping, all in our honest 4 day Langkawi guide.

We almost skipped George Town. It turned out to be one of the most surprising stops of the whole trip, full of street art, temples and the best food in Malaysia.
