Summary:
I had just really little time to visit Cameron Highlands. This tour allowed me to get a good picture of the place and come back home with really beautiful memories. The sunrise I could see is unforgettable. I had also time to walk a little bit around the Mossy Forest. Furthermore, Mr. Selvam, my driver / guide explained a lot of interesting things, nature, people, culture and history, and facilitated me to take my bus back to Kuala Lumpur without any worry. Moreover, they always answered me, really prompt, any doubt I had in the booking process. Thanks a lot Magunatip Holidays team!

Summary:
Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable of the area and of the tea plantations. Was a great way to start the day to watch the sunrise over the the Boh Tea Plantation, then we went for a walk in the Mossy Forest which had amazing views of the countryside. We finished off at Boh Tea Plantation, the only thing I would have liked was a bit more time at the plantation as it felt a bit rushed.
