Kuala Besut and Kota Bharu

To get to the Perhentian Islands (east Malaysia) we had to fly from Kulala Lumpur to Kota Bharu where we stayed for a day before heading out Kulala Besut to catch a speed boat to the islands. We didn't see much of the city. We hardly saw any westerners and the locals where clad in traditional clothing.

Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, feels like a slightly more modern version of Bangkok. It's easy to get around in Kuala Lumpur using the sky trains and I also recommend using Grab (Asian version of Uber). Food and dining is also very cheap. We rented an apartment via AirBnB in the Face suites with a infinity pool on the 51st floor.
