National Park National Park (Taman Negara)

Rainforest Ramble
Blog Writer: Dan We were awoken this morning by the morning call for prayer at about 5am which all the mosques blast out on speakers strategically placed through town, just so happens our room is right next to one of those speakers. We were relieved once ...
Day two: backstabbing bitch.
The bees, they woke up at 5. They are seriosly going ape-shit over my tent, just buzzing around and "licking" it. I slept until late and had a bunch of weird dreams, which always happens to me when I oversleep. Took it easy today, decided NOT to go back. ...
Yahtzee and Delerium
... My way out of KL was by bus. I had to continue looking for my tiger after all, so I set my sights for Taman Negara, mainland Malaysia's most popular jungle destination. It is the most popular because it is the densest and wildest jungle on the ...

Escape to the rainforest
For our three days in Taman Negara, we opted for an organised tour as this meant we didn't have to organise our own accommodation, transport, food etc and as it included a guide, it also cut down the chance of us getting lost in the rainforest (which, ...

Feels like a jungle sometimes
Hi from taman negara, but i'm writing this from Singapore airport on my way to Jakarta. We spent 3 days in Taman Jungle doing a bit of trekking but it was so hot and sweaty that we never did more than a 4 hour trek and that was enough as I had to do ...
Day one: FEAR
It's not even waterproof. Stretched, I only fit in it if I lay diagonally. The zipper is in pretty bad shape and it therefore takes me 2 and a half minutes to get in and out of it. Still it cost me 30 ringgit to rent it for a week and even though ...
