 | |  |  | Genting Highlands: A Fully Integrated Place for Eveybody | Tip Rating:    |  |  | |  |
You will love this place, it's almost one hour drive using the bus from KL.
At the base you can take uphill trip using the "Skyway" cable car you will feel like trekking in the jungles and as you move up your suspense and excitment increase.
At the top you will feel like you are in a different place away from the whole world. The landscape from top is fascinating and the mixture of mountains, fogs and greenery is amazing.
The weather is a bit cooler but bearable, you can bring some heavy cloths if you wish.
There are different things you can do up there:
1) Trying the inside theme park, most of the games are suitable for kids
2) Trying the outdoor theme park, lots of thrilling and adventureous games ranging between roller coasters to water games.
3) Shopping, lots of garments, optics, and souvenir shops
4) Restaurants and cafe shops
5) Live shows, especially the H2O water show. However if you are planning to see any of these shows you have to stay up to 9:0 PM this when the show starts. This is tricky because the last bus leaves at 7:0 or 8:0 PM I guess. And I think they made it on purpose so that you are forced to stay the night at one of the hotels there, unless you want to take a private cab. But don't worry the room rates are very affordable.
6) Panoramatic view from the top and a gallery about the resort.
I would advise you to take a look at their website to get more details ... Leave a Comment Website: www.genting.com.my

| | | | Genting Highlands: Genting Highlands, Thrills & non-stop entertainmen | Tip Rating: | | | | |
The fun never seems to stop at Genting — City of Entertainment, perched on the top of Genting Highlands, and reached by road or cable car. There is a choice of outdoor or indoor theme parks, indoor splash pool with warm water, or outdoor waterpark. In the evening, there is spectacular entertainment at the Genting International Showroom or Pavilion, be it a thrilling magic show or an ice-skating extravaganza, shopping at newly opened First World Plaza, games, and feasting on a wide range of delicious food.
Over 30 rides can be enjoyed in the Outdoor Theme Park. Thrill-seekers will want to try all four roller coaster rides — the double loop Corkscrew, Rolling Thunder Mine Train, Cyclone and Flying Dragon. The daring ones will also want to ride the Spinner Flying Carousel, the Super Toboggan, and the intense Turbo Drop that drops riders 185 feet down in the air and then instantly shoots them upwards. On the Sungai Rejang Flume Ride and at the Genting Splash, the only waterpark experience available at 6,000 feet (2,000 metres) above sea level, be prepared to get wet. It’s part of’ the fun!
There are children’s rides and famiIy rides including the Monorail and Theme Park Skyway cable cars. Younger children will enjoy rides such as the Flying Baby Jumbo, Teacup, Pirate Train, Rodeo Rider and Astro Fighter.
