Malaysia beckons with an astounding mix of lush rainforests, gorgeous beaches and precipitous mountains, and this latest volume in the award- winning Eyewitness Travel Guide series covers every aspect of this fascinating country.

Nature lovers can swim with colorful fish off the shores of numerous islands or spot orangutans and other exotic jungle-dwellers in Sarawak. Using the unique cutaway maps and 3-D models explore the ultra-modern skyscrapers of Kuala Lumpur and Singapore which overwhelm the colonial buildings still found in the centre of both metropolises.

Just as it has done for me on trips to Europe and the British Isle DK has come through for me again with this series about South East Asia. The maps make it easy to navigate and don't require me to buy maps of major tourist sites as they are already included and it helps to get you excited and know what you want to see when you get there with its beautiful displays. They got it right as they always seem to do.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great book, but probably too big for just Singapore
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2008
Verified Purchase
This is a great book- full of interesting information, gorgeous photos, and travel tips. We just went to Singapore and it was useful, along with the  Groovy MAP 'N' GUIDE SINGAPORE and  Fodor's Singapore's 25 Best, 3rd Edition (25 Best) .

The only downside is the size. While small enough to carry in a bag, it's not THAT small- and the section on Singapore is relatively smallcompared to the malaysia section. Overall, while I'm happy I bought it, the other 2 books went with me around town, while this one stayed in the hotel.

I love all Eyewtiness Travel Guides and this one is no exception!

All the information once again proved to be very useful, even in the planning stages of my upcoming honeymoon! Same as all other Eyewitness Travel Guides, I MUST recommend all the walking tours to everyone!!! Sometimes it may seem as if you're walking in circles, but it's always worth it and at the end of the day I assure that you will see a lot of sense in it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A typical excellent DK Eyewitness guide
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2008

If you are looking for where to stay, where to eat, what is cool, get a Lonely Planet guide. This is a typical DK Eyewitness guide - packed with detailed historical and cultural information, superb illustrations, an easy-to-follow maps. The information is well-written and is presented in a easy-to-read-and-grasp manner.

I usually get both the Lonely Planet (or similar) and DK.

DK is one of my favorite travel guides. The many photos truly help me assess the appeal of a location/site. I just wish there was more effort to help develop an itinerary. EG how many days to spend in each location. However other guides do that and since there is no Kindle edition of the DK Guides, I'll be purchasing those to take with me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good travel guide to Singapore

I used this guide for a 2 day trip to Singapore. The guide was helpful as an overview to Singapore. We used it to find an authentic Malay restaurant on Boat Quay, which was really excellent, and seemed to have a lot of locals, even though it was in a tourist area. There is actually a lot of interesting things to do in Singapore and the guide helped us find them.

Usual good book from the DK eyewitness books, very detailed and with lots of pictures and sketches, I like these visualizations a lot more than the dry, picture-less Lonely Planet guides

5.0 out of 5 stars DK RULES - AS USUAL
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 22, 2011

We always use DK guides to plan our holiday. They're so well laid out it's easy to work out an itinerary. I like the concise and simple descriptions, maps and pictures and photos so, as they say, you can see for yourself if you really want to see each place of interest. This all sounds like I work for them :-) but I think they're essential. We've also got a Lonely Planet this time as well, which have very good local maps that DK don't have, but it'll take more reading and note-taking than DK. My husnband think's it'll be worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A useful companion
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 31, 2013

We spent 3 weeks travelling around Malaysia, with 4 nights in Singapore built-in. We found the DK guide to be quite useful - particularly the maps and the restaurants that had been picked out, which proved to be excellent finds. The major downside is that the restaurant and hotel section is the only place where the guide really voices an opinion and I think we would have benefited from some honest advice in certain sections of our trip. Having looked at the Lonely Planet guide in one of the hostels we stayed in, you will find a much more opinionated view if you were to buy that, however, we had decided not to based on the lack of graphics and the incredibly dense text. Having spoken to other travellers who were using the LP guide, they had grown quite fed-up of that as well, so maybe you just can't win?!

Planing my own trip and was looking for a guide, I came across this first in waterstones I picked it up and if you're a visual person you will definitaely like this as it uses lots of first hand images from places to see, eat and insider tips on travel etc by someone who has seen and done it. I think it was around £15+ in waterstones so I ordered it from amazon for £10 bargain Xxx

I bought this as a secret santa gift for a work colleague. I knew she would be traveling to Malaysia and wanted to find out more about Asia while she was there. She was very pleased with this gift, exactly what she wanted. Informative and very useful information about where to go and not just all the popular places. Bargain price too!
