Malaysia practically coined the phrase as it has unparalleled access to National Parks, jungles, and wildlife viewing.
On the mainland you should not miss a visit to Taman Negara National Park, with over 4,000 square kilometres of virgin forest and home to over 200 varieties of animals and just as many species of plants, trees and blooms.
Drift silently down the meandering rivers, and see the kingfishers, monkeys, hornbills, and other exotic birds and animals as they watch you from the water's edge or from the treetops. Take a walk in the clouds and join the birds, 25 metres above the ground, on the canopy walkway. Take a hike and take the plunge, into waters crystal clear and cool, rejuvenated by the spray of waterfalls crisp mountain air.
Alternatively head for Malaysian Borneo, The states of Sarawak and Sabah offer totally different things:
Sarawak is famed for the White Rajahs (the Brooke family) It is also known for its indigenous people who practice the "art" of head shrinking, see them and see the way they live in their "longhouses" Or visit the Mulu caves (one of the most extensive cave systems on the planet) See 600ft waterfalls and one of the largest colony bats.
Sabah - offers a wilderness experience, from the side of Mount Kinabalu, to its natural fauna and flora to its inhabitants - "The old men of the mountains" or Orang Utans to you and me, can be seen in the world renowned Sepilok sanctuary. From Sandakan you can travel to Sipadan Island to see turtle colonies.
