Hey thanks.

I%26#39;m looking for 1 day trips or 2 day overnight trips. My boyfriend has been working in KL for the past 2 years and it%26#39;s getting bored to just go shopping everytime we%26#39;re free. Thinking of exploring other areas since it%26#39;s cheaper to travel within m%26#39;sia.

Hi again,

Since your bf is already familiar with KL then I would suggest that you take a trip to Langkawi, Pangkor Island, Cherating (Pahang), Terengganu or Kelantan for a new experience. It would a wonderful trip!

Hi, a nice serene place offering opportunity to enjoy quiet moments, and little travelling time from KL is a hill station, known as Fraser%26#39;s Hill.

In fact, enroute to Fraser%26#39;s Hill, can stop at Batu Caves, before turning into the road leading to Kuala Kubu Baru.Takes about 2 hours to the peak.

Alternatively, with the new East Coast Expressway, the ocean at Cherating beckons a call, with a journey of around 3 hours.

Does your boyfriend have a car? With a car its much easier.

If not, does your bf%26#39;s friends have a car? Can also make use of that.

Are you Singaporean? These are some of the things I think you might find interesting -

Kuala Selangor fireflies - should be evening/night trip starting with a visit to Kuala Selangor town then riverside for seafood then go see fireflies when its dark.

Trolak Hot Springs - Day trip. If you are adventurous, can combined that with a cave hike in Gua Tempurung. There are different levels of difficulty but the one I like is the 3 hour guided trek/climb.

Fraser%26#39;s Hill - Overnight. Relaxing, cool. Not bad food too.

Port Dickson- seaside, but only so-so waters and beaches. Nearest beach from KL

Genting - Have you been there lately? Lots of changes and new hotels and theme parks.

Berjaya Hill Resort + Elephant Scantuary. Can be combined with Genting.

Most of these places however require 1-2 hours of travel by road.
