Malaysia Tourism promotes cycling travel packages

Tuesday, 07 Jan, 2015 0

Tourism leaders in Malaysia are peddling the country’s eco-tourism credentials with the recent roll out of a raft of new tour packages for cyclists.

To kick off the 2015 programme, Tourism Malaysia will promote a new guide book ‘Discover Malaysia by Bicycle’ at the ASEAN Tourism Forum on January 22.

The packages focus mainly on cycling enthusiasts from Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand and include three-day tours of Kuching, Kota Bharu and a four-day Taman Negara cycling package.

"Through these packages, domestic and international tourists will be able to explore more destinations in Malaysia through cycling," said Tourism Malaysia’s deputy director-general of promotions, Azizan Noordin.

The packages are being marketed through 32 local tour agencies.

Tourism Malaysia has been promoting cycling tours since 2011 and sold over 5,000 packages during 2013.
