In Malaysia it is
always Summer so, with the nights drawing in at home, treat yourself to some
late sunshine with a long weekend in Kuala Lumpur. Our five night holiday
includes a city sightseeing tour and a grandstand seat for Saturday and Sunday
at the track. You will be accompanied throughout by our representative and a
local guide who will ensure that you enjoy your stay to the full.
Away from the track there’s plenty to see and do. Most of the shops in the city
are open twelve hours a day and there are street markets selling colourful silks
and local handicrafts. Within walking distance of your hotel are bars, cafes and
restaurants to suit all tastes but, if you are a little more adventurous, join
the locals at the hawker stalls
and tuck in to a big plate of food for just pennies. Amidst the bustle of the
modern city
you will find many parks and gardens of lush tropical vegetation. You’ll also
see many
reminders of Malaysia’s colonial heritage in the architecture, not to mention in
the
restaurants where bread and butter pudding still features on many menus!
Malaysia is also rich in idyllic islands and beach resorts and we can arrange
for you to extend your stay for as many days as you wish. You can go jungle
trekking in the rainforest, fly south to Singapore or to the beautiful islands
of Penang, Pangkor or Langkawi. The hotels offer superb services and most are
within a one hour flight of Kuala Lumpur. Having made the journey to south east
Asia take full advantage - you won’t be disappointed.
Sepang was the first of the new wave of technically designed circuits with
sweeping bends, fast straights and two hair-raising hairpins at the end of the
lap. In open countryside just one hour from the city facilities are
state-of-the-art. For spectators, whereever you sit there’s maximum viewing.
Included in the tour price you can choose a seat along the main mall and
opposite the pit lane or in the excellent K grandstand on the first bend. In
2006 spectators were treated to a nailbiting finale as rivals Rossi and
Capirossi crossed the line side-by-side and just 0.08 seconds apart. Pedrosa
took third place having fought a hard race with a painful knee injury.
