As Nasiruddin Nasrun, the Director of Events & Public Relations of Bukit Gambang Resort City in Gambang, Kuantan puts it, “The whole idea of a family getaway is for the whole family to be involved as a unit; without the father staying in the room watching TV or the mother going out shopping."
With that in mind, take a look at the following getaway ideas.
Cool Getaway – Cameron Highlands
Escape the heat and head to Cameron Highlands with the family to enjoy the lush greenery that will take your breath away. The fun getaway starts off with visiting the tea plantations and strawberry farms, then moving on to jungle trekking and exploring other parts of Cameron Highlands, known as the “little corner of England in Asia”.
The family fun doesn’t have to stop there though. Try a steamboat meal at one of the restaurants up on the highlands. Sample the “English Tea Experience” by having tea and scones with jam and butter by the hill – a perfect way to relax and chat.
For those who crave for a fun family adventure getaway, the Waterfall and off-road fun will fit the bill. This escapade will take you and the family into the jungle, promising you challenges that could actually be fun and exciting. The trip will provide the opportunity to the spirit of cooperation, teamwork and togetherness of the whole family.
Water Park Getaway
With different theme parks under one venue, Sunway Lagoon, known as the “Playground of thrills, fun and more fun” never fails to amaze. Check out its Fun Day package, tailored for a fun family getaway. Have a tremendous day out, and stay until the park closes to enjoy the experience to the max!
The Lost World of Tambun promises an awesome family outing, with its Waterfall Beach Garden, Adventure River, Tube Raiders – just to name of the attractions there. You can even relieve your tired and sore muscles, by taking a dip in the Tambun Hot Springs, a natural spring-fed pool.
Family fun at Bukit Gambang Water Park
A fun family getaway can also be experienced with The Stay Cool, Get Wet in Bukit Gambang Package.
“Bukit Gambang Resort City is packed with family-orientated entertainment”, as Nasiruddin says, adding that “there’s always something for each and every member of the family to enjoy.”
With attractions like the Kids Slide and Glacier River/Journey of Ice, go up the rides and slides as many times as you wish. Bukit Gambang Water Park also boasts of a 6 Lane Racer, which is the longest in Malaysia. It’s where you get to slide past each other on water while 'flying' like Superman!
You will never be short of ideas for a fun family getaway in Malaysia, with a lot of activities available for the young (and the young at heart), while at the same time providing parents with the time to relax, and enjoy themselves as well!
