If you planning to explore Malaysia on a budget, then book your hotels in Malaysia<\/a> between the months of November and March. This is when the northeast monsoon hits the east coast of Peninsula Malaysia \u2014 which means that the hotel and air flight prices will fall very low. (So, book it!) To make the most of your travel to Malaysia on a budget, it is better to avoid major holidays like Chinese New Year, Deepavali, Hari Raya and Christmas. This is the time when the locals flock like chickens to their village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Photo by Deva Darshan<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n You may not have to worry about the inter-state transport costs, but when it comes to traveling in Malaysia intra-state, you might want to pay some attention. Taxis are notorious for being overpriced whereas public transport, including the LRT in Kuala Lumpur and the buses are good value for money. But personally, I would recommend you use Grab instead \u2013 as it\u2019s cheaper and more dependable than taxis. Hence, when travelling to Malaysia on a budget, you can also check out our flight offers<\/a> that will help you save big on your travel! <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can take a free guided walking tour of Malaysia or just visit the main sites on foot individually. Both ways, you will probably find it impossible to miss the iconic Petronas Towers. From here, you can take a walk over the KLCC pedestrian walkway to Bukit Bintang, where you can drool over all the high-end consumer products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Photo by Joy Lim<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n You are lucky because AirBnB is legal in Malaysia, unlike\nother certain countries. This means that you get to stay in pretty furnished\napartments and home-stays for less than the price of a 2-star hotel. For below\nRM100, you will have a crash pad and sometimes breakfast, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Photo by Advocator SY<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Malaysian cuisine<\/strong> has an amazing culinary blend. The intricate spices and flavors make the food that you\u2019ll find here utterly exclusive. The street is crowded with both street food kiosks and also nice bistros for the backpacker that has some extra cash to spare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Photo by Esmonde Yong<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n My last little advice would be to avoid drinking as much as possible! Why? Well, while Malaysia is on the whole reasonable, the prices for a bottle of beer are similar to those in the US and Europe. Therefore, avoiding drinking alcohol will spare both your liver and your wallet! This will definitely help you travel to Malaysia on a budget! <\/p>\n\n\n\n I hope these 6 Malaysia travel tips would help you when you plan your next holiday in Malaysia.
