JUST A FEW QUESTIONS IF YOU DONT MIND.

I NORMALLY TAKE A PRE PAID CASH CARD, CAN THESE BE USED FREELY IN MAYLASIA?

WHAT TYPE OF ELECTRCIAL PLUGS ARE USED, SO I CAN GET AN ADAPTOR.

WHAT IS THE WEATHER LIKE AT THAT TO=IME OF YEAR. WILL I NEED TO TAKE A WATER PROOF COAT.

MANY THANKS AND KIND REGARDS

Hello Julie, I am unsure as to whether Malaysia will or will not accept a pre-paid cash card, it would be wise to contact the card issuer for that information.

Luckily, Malaysia uses the same 3 pronged plugs and sockets as the UK, and the voltages are similar also so you will not require an adaptor for this trip.

With regards to the weather, it will be above 20 degrees centigrade when you visit in May, so thin clothing is advised. However, it is likely that you will experience some rain in May so I would recommend taking a thin waterproof coat, one that will keep you dry but one that isn't too heavy and hot to carry around.

I hope this information has been helpful and if you have any further queries then feel free to email me.

Kind regards

James, your editor

Hello Julie, I have looked into it and both of the hotels have private safes in all their rooms for their guests to use.

Hi Julie

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. The Penang Island tour on Day 8 costs 90 Malaysian Ringgitt (about £18). You can pay for this in the local currency.
