So I just started a UK road trip (a trip I have been putting off everyday as this English weather seems to be certain that it will throw everything at us except sunshine)
So the first stop on my road trip was Leeds and I booked a last minute hotel at Quebecs Hotel. I booked Quebecs for the handiness of it. Quebecs is a Grade II listed 4 star hotel located in the heart of the city and with all my plans being city centre based, this seemed ideal.
Arriving in Kuala Lumpur for the first time, I wanted a city centre hotel that had everything to make my stay enjoyable. I found just that with the Grand Hyatt.
The luxury 5 star hotel is centrally located and within walking distance to many of the city centre tourist attractions. I arrived early and was quickly wowed by the stunning ballroom you’re greeted to as you walk in. And then wowed once again when I stepped out of the elevator into the sky lobby for check in as I took in the views over the city.
I recently discovered the Instagram account safromabove and was amazed by some of the most stunning drone shots. The account is run by Bo Le, based in South Australia, Bo uses his drone to capture stunning shots from above. I recently asked Bo a few questions about his photography and his plans for the future. Catch the full interview below.
During my time in Kuala Lumpur I headed out the Batu Caves. The caves are easily accessed from the city centre by train or taxi. However I booked onto a tour before arriving through Viator. I paid roughly £8 for the trip, and it included collection from my hotel in Kuala Lumpur.
Arriving at the caves, I headed straight up the stairs. Climbing 272 stairs in hot, humid weather is as disgusting as you’d expect. However when you get to the top, it’s worth every step. Along the way you’ll encounter some wild monkeys, who will happily pose for your photos. However if you have any food on you, just know that the monkeys are going to take it.
Be sure to make sure you’re dressed appropriately as otherwise you will not be welcome in the caves.
I took some photos during my time at the caves, check out some of my favourites.
