Day 1: From Urban Hustle to Cultural Marvels

It’s early morning in Singapore. You’re packed, excited, and ready to escape the concrete jungle quickly. As you board the coach heading toward Kuala Lumpur, the idea of three days blending city sightseeing and eco-adventure with LAGO Travel begins to take shape.

The Journey Begins

The ride through Johor Bahru sets the tone—comfortable, scenic, and full of anticipation. Soon, the skyline of Putrajaya, Malaysia’s federal administrative centre, appeared. Here, a brief but beautiful stop reveals:

Preview
  • Putra Mosque – A pink-domed architectural wonder that’s as peaceful as it is photogenic.
  • Putra Square & Putra Bridge – Ideal for panoramic shots and soaking in modern Islamic architecture.

When you check in at the centrally located Verdant Hill Hotel (4★ or similar) in Kuala Lumpur, you're already feeling the pace change. With some free time to freshen up, the night invites you to experience one of KL’s must-do activities: street food exploration on Alor Street.

Preview

Imagine the sizzling sound of satay skewers, the sweet aroma of pandan desserts, and the bold spices of curry laksa. It’s a foodie’s dream and a great way to bond with fellow travellers in your group.

Day 2: Reflections at Sea, Fields of Gold & Raptors in Flight

This is where the eco-tour magic truly begins. Day two swaps skyscrapers for saltwater and traffic for talons.

Stop 1: The Sky Mirror – Nature’s Optical Illusion

Preview

In the quiet fishing town of Kuala Selangor, a boat ride takes you to the ethereal Sky Mirror. A sandbank emerges from the sea during low tide, creating a mirror-like surface that perfectly reflects the sky. The result? One of the most surreal, Instagram-worthy experiences you’ll ever have.

Strike a pose with your reflection dancing beneath you, or lay back and let the blue sky blend with the horizon. It’s like walking on water—literally.

Local Seafood Lunch

After your photo session, it’s time to refuel. A seafood feast at a local Chinese restaurant delivers freshness straight from the coast. Think steamed fish, butter prawns, and fragrant fried rice.

Stop 2: Sekinchan – Rustic Charm Meets Cultural Depth

Preview

The adventure continues inland to Sekinchan, a peaceful village famed for its vast paddy fields and traditional life.

  • Paddy Fields: Stretching as far as the eye can see, these golden-green fields are both soothing and photogenic.
  • A Ma’s House: A cultural museum full of vintage Malaysian household items that takes you back to simpler times.
  • Wishing Tree: Write your wishes, tie them to red ribbons, and toss them high into the tree—locals say the higher it lands, the sooner it comes true.
  • Redang Beach: Wind down by the beach as gentle waves meet the shore—a romantic, reflective pause before the next thrill.

Stop 3: Eagle Feeding Tour – Raptors in Action

Preview

The day ends with an adrenaline-tingling boat ride where dozens of majestic eagles soar overhead and dive for food just metres away from you. The Eagle Feeding Tour is a highlight for nature lovers, bird enthusiasts, and photographers alike.

Dinner with a View

Wrap up your nature-filled day with a hearty Chinese-style dinner with local flavour and warmth shared among your tour group.

Day 3: Back to the City, with Heritage in Sight

After breakfast and hotel check-out, the tour makes a final loop through Kuala Lumpur’s cultural and historical landmarks—a perfect way to round off your adventure.

Preview

Urban Sightseeing Highlights:

  • Independence Square (Dataran Merdeka) – Where Malaysian independence was declared.
  • National Monument – A tribute to fallen heroes, set amidst lush greenery.
  • Petaling Street (Chinatown) – Bustling markets, colourful shophouses, and endless photo ops.
  • Kwai Chai Hong – A hidden laneway in Chinatown brought to life with vivid murals and restored heritage buildings.

Lunch with a Twist

Preview

Before returning to Singapore, enjoy an unexpected culinary twist: a Korean BBQ buffet! It’s a crowd-pleaser and the perfect fuel for the journey home.
