The Malaysian jungle is one of the few places on Earth where it can be found. The tour takes approximately 2-4 hours.

Witness the intricate process firsthand and learn how these containers not only keep water cold but also help filter it, showcasing the ingenuity of local craftsmanship.

Later on, we head to Taiping, which means eternal peace, and is known as the wettest city in Malaysia. Taiping and both Kuala Sepetang has a lovely local charm that are not fully discovered by international travelers yet. In Taiping we will see a traditional wood roasted coffee factory, we will explore Taiping's historical center, with well-preserved colonial-era buildings and we take a walk in Lake Gardens, which used to be a tin mining ground and later on became one of the oldest public park in Malaysia. Then we will head to a lovely fishing village, called Kuala Sepetang. It is also known as Port Weld, because this tiny coastal village was the first port of British Malaya connecting the tin mines with the first railway in the country. Here we can visit the largest mangrove forest in Malaysia on a boat trip, including a fish farm to see the legendary puffer fish! Later on you will see a charcoal factory where you can learn about the traditional methods of charcoal production and see mangrove wood transformed into charcoal. We'll take a walk along the picturesque Sepetang Riverfront as well.

Before arriving in Penang, you will stop at the Bukit Merah Orangutan Sanctuary. The sanctuary is a well-known orangutan rehabilitation center: it is primarily dedicated to the conservation and rehabilitation of orangutans, which are native to the rainforests of Southeast Asia and are considered endangered due to habitat loss and illegal wildlife trade. The orangutans live on is island that is accessible by a short boat ride. Their name means "person of the forest" in the Malay language, reflecting their human-like appearance and their preference for a solitary lifestyle in the dense rainforests of Southeast Asia. On your visit to the island, you will learn about these fascinating animals, and you will have the opportunity to see many orangutans up close in a cool concept: the orangutans are living free on the island…it is the people who are inside a cage tunnel!

In the late afternoon transfer to your hotel in Penang.
