5 days in Venice

Special Tour 5 ημέρες & 4 βράδια Availability:

Βενετία, Ιταλία Greece Εγγεγραμμένοι: 5

Η Ναυπακτία είναι ο ορισμός του προορισμού 4 εποχών. Το ορεινό κομμάτι της είναι ένα δώρο της φύσης, που χάρισε απλόχερα μερικά από τα ομορφότερα στολίδια της στην περιοχή. Το παραθαλάσσιο, με επίκεντρο τη Ναύπακτο, είναι ιδανικό για ατέλειωτες βόλτες και κοσμοπολίτικες βραδιές σε ενετικό φόντο.

Αν νομίζατε ως τώρα ότι τα δύο κομμάτια δε συνδυάζονται, με τη συγκεκριμένη εκδρομή του MY OTHER GREECE θα αναθεωρήσετε. Προσεγμένες διαδρομές και μετρημένοι χρόνοι θα σας δώσουν στιγμές χαλάρωσης, αλλά και «γεμάτες» εμπειρίες σε βουνό και θάλασσα, και θα σας φέρουν σε επαφή με επισκέψεις σε περιβαλλοντικούς και ιστορικούς προορισμούς που ίσως δεν γνωρίζατε ότι υπάρχουν.

Day 1: Arrival Kuala Lumpur – visit KL Tower– Check in Hotel

Selamat datang! Welcome to Malaysia. Your adventure begins with an important welcome meeting at 6 pm. If you have any free time beforehand, why not get out and explore this intriguing city that was born between the Borneo jungle and the South China Sea.

Modern-day ‘KK’ is a vibrant modern metropolis, having recovered from World War II bombings – the Sabah State Museum is a great place to immerse yourself in its backstory.

Accommodation: Hotel

Day 2: Full Day Genting Tour

Leaving Kota Kinabalu behind, you’ll head for the hills and travel towards the unspoiled wilderness of the World Heritage-listed Mt Kinabalu National Park (approximately 3 hours). You will stop off en route at a local home in a Dusun Village. Sample the local foods with a home cooked lunch to get some insight into what it’s like to live in a rural village.

Later you can stretch your legs and soak up the mountain scenery with a stroll through Mt Kinabalu National Park. There are many walking trails from which you can bird watch. The Mt Kinabalu Botanical Garden is an excellent showcase of the diverse plant life on the mountain, as flora from all over the park has been replanted here. Spend the night in a mountain lodge close by to the park in Kundasang.

Accommodation: Resort

Day 3: Kuala Lumpur Half Day City Tour

You might wake to the call of a Bornean gibbon, or perhaps a hornbill. Enjoy an early morning cruise down the river, searching for more birds and wildlife. Keep an eye out for Long Tail Macaques and Pig Tail Macaques – your expert leader can tell you the difference. Later that morning, take a walk to Bilit Village, home to the local Orang Sungei community.

The Orang Sungei, which translates to ‘River People’, are one of Sabah’s many indigenous communities and are very hospitable with a diverse cultural heritage. Enjoy some free time in the afternoon before another river cruise to see wildlife along the riverbank. This final river cruise will be your last chance to photograph or simply marvel at your surrounds. Spend one more night in your lovely accommodation right in the heart of the jungle.

Accommodation: Lodge

Day 4: Leave at 9am

Head back to Kota Kinabalu today by boat and minivan. This will take around 40 minutes. Optional activities include a visit the intriguing Mari Mari Cultural Village, nestled deep in the countryside. Here you will see how indigenous ethnic groups of Borneo used to live. Or a visit to the Sabah Museum to learn about Sabah’s past or do some last-minute souvenir shopping at the Filipino market. Tonight, perhaps head out for a meal with your group to celebrate your Borneo adventure.

Accommodation: Hotel

There are no activities planned for the final day and you are able to depart the accommodation at any time.

Heading to the big city comes with a lot of big questions. New York City is home to over 8 million people, all crammed into five boroughs: Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island, with Manhattan being the most popular to visit. For a first timer, there will be plenty to keep you busy in Manhattan, but don’t overlook Brooklyn and Queens if time allows.
