Taman Negara 1 - Overview

Whispers: Palm oil price is very volatile. My customer does not want to buy... no business = no work... very boring...

......................................................

If you love nature, Taman Negara is really a place that you should go, at least once.

You can create your own plan of what you want to do there or you can signed up for one of the package available from travel agencies... Basically, the price is about RM200++ per person to at least RM350 per person on a basic 3D2N package.

Advisable to take the package if this is your first time here as it would cover most of the thing that you should try here.

The package that I took, which cost me RM350 (yes, I took the basic package but it comes with abit of upgrades as our group was consisted of 22 person altogether) is include of the following activities:

Ear Cave Exploration
Flora and Fauna Video Presentation
Night Jungle Trekking
Tahan Hide to watch some animal
Canopy Walk
Day Jungle Trekking to Bukit Teresik
Rapid Shooting
Visit to Orang Asli Village
Water Night Safari

Before I continue about each of the above mentioned activities, I would like to cover more on some important information (which many people ignore in their post).

Advisable attire:
t-shirt
Short cargo pants or something similar
Sport shoe and/or slipper

What else should you bring:
Torchlight (LED type or those powerful type)
Salt water (not-cooked) in a bottle with nozzle
Mosquito repellent
Camera (weather-proof / water proof is the best)

P.S.: More posts on Taman Negara soon... working on the pictures now...
