- Always drink mineral water only, (recommended Aquafina, Bistleri). Please ensure the bottle that you received is sealed and opened by you and not pre- opened by the waiter. It is safe to consume hot drinks such as coffee or tea.
- Although it might be very tempting, please by all means avoid food at roadside eateries including fruits. Always look for decent and hygienic restaurants for all your meals. (most cases breakfast is complimentary at the hotels of your stay).
- During long journeys restroom facilities may not be available at certain routes, so it is highly recommended to relieve yourself before proceeding with such journey.
- Daybreak is around 5.30am (Malaysia time 8.00am) so it is best to wake up early and after an early breakfast, start your journey such you will not be caught in the traffic which normally builds up by 8.30am.
- If you are visiting temples in the same town, most temples open as early as 5.00 am so it is recommended for you to visit the temples and then later return to the hotel for breakfast.
