Day 5
National Park
Breakfast. We'll walk for about 45 minutes toward Bukit Teresek along narrow paths toward the exciting suspension bridges between the trees, a series of walkways over 400 meters long that crisscross the jungle and offer breathtaking views from above.

Tamar Negara - Cameron Highlands
Breakfast. Today we'll wake up early to catch the spectacle of sunrise, when the first rays of the sun paint the sky and the forest pink and light gold.
After breakfast, we depart by road for the Cameron Highlands, a charming rural resort located at an altitude of approximately 1.542 meters, the highest climatic resort in Malaysia. In the late afternoon, we will visit a tea factory: here, vast plantations of lush green bushes gently hug the hillsides, and traditional colonial buildings resemble the Tudor architecture of old England.
The weather is also cool, so it's advisable to wear long pants and a sweater or light jacket. Accommodation.
