HELLO Everybodyyyyy! Episode 1 of travelling Malaysia begins with an exciting and alternative route to the heart of Malaysia. We took the Jungle Train from Wakaf Bharu to Kuala Lipis, a connecting train to Jerantut and then had to rely on the locals to get us to our final destination in Kuala Tahan. 15 hours later we arrived in Taman Negara, Malaysia’s vast jungle. The journey did not disappoint - however we did encounter one or two delays along the way…nothing less then a typical day for a backpacker.

    Hi guys! Love this video. I'm hoping you can help me as I am considering taking this train only because your video has inspired me. I travel to Asia a lot. I'm a 70-year-old solo traveler. Last year I was in Malaysia twice as well as Sri Lanka. But after a while you run out of things to do in the particular country that are of interest to you. I'm not a beach person. m My excitement is from culture, food and making new friends. Have you taken the beautiful train through the tea plantations in Sri Lanka as I did? Because looking at your video it looks like what you were seeing through the window is similar to that and if so what would I gain as a new experience by taking this jungle train? I got dengue fever in Laos in 2019 and now the risk of internal bleeding from dengue is greater on a second infection if from a different variant than the one I have antibody's against. So I'm always concerned about jungles and waterfall things due to mosquitoes. Any experience - were their mosquitoes? Do you know if Dengue is prevalent in this area if not in the rainy season?

    I was wondering if your ticket allows you to get off and walk around interesting places along this trip and the return to the next train on the same ticket? And do they run often enough to be able to get back on in a couple of hours? Or perhaps there is not much interesting close these train stations? I've traveling to and from KL to Ipoh and George Town, and enjoyed those rides and cities where I stayed for a couple of days each. But enough to return again? Not sure. Any train rides you recommend in Asia and if so, what was interesting about them?
