Any fren out there had been in Bukit Tinggi?? What actually we can do at there??.. And any problem faced when having a holiday there?? Any transport up there?? A 3D2N holiday will be suitable??

need HELP
Thankz..

3D 2N? That's a bit too much I think. 1 night should be enough, IMHO. Things to do: Take pictures, fill up the memory card in your digicam. Horse riding if you fancy, and there's a rabbit farm there.

that's all?? i heard there is various of Villages.. and suitable for couple.. izzit true??

not much things to do there though...went there once...i think 3d2n is too much..
i went there for a 1 day trip only..heheh....erm walking up n down hills...quite tiring...for me ler...

ya ya...nothing there one...
1 day trip should be sufficient...
i went there to and fro from melaka somemore...
go there kill your memory cards and batteries only...

there is a package by Berjaya Hills that include bus pick up from berjaya times square.. i cant remember how much is it as the info is in my office. pm me for more details .. in case i forget..

Thankz
if i go by bus, will it be a problem for transportation at Bukit Tinggi??

yup, its not genting, there arent many taxis that will wait for u there.

Stayed at Selesa hill homes, just 10 min drive to Bkt tinggi, Japanese village, Colma Tropica, rabbit farm, good place to test ur car's handling hehe. Went to hutan lipur lentang for some nice cold river bath hehe........Can go further to bentong if u wish for waterfall and there is hot springs nearby not sure where though.....

Bukit Tinggi Resort ~ Colmar Tropic ale, Japanese Garden, Japanese Botanical Garden, Rabbit Farm, French Castle, Golf and Country Club...
This resort is more to relaxing favorite ... it suits couple really! The scenery and the environment is cool and calm! On the street during the night, the will be some clown, magic show, performances, swallow fire performances, and during the nite, it was very romantic de... But all these performances only happen during the weekend, public or school holidays... other day got but lesser n you shud check with them!

Colmar Tropic ale... Buffet expensive, dining there very expensive one! Got Archery, Horse Riding, Last Time got slot machine... (now no more coz no License)

Japanese Garden ... U can try and wear Kimono (Japanese Costume) RM20 each for unlimited hours within a day n go snap shot with ya costume around tat area! And got Tea Fellowship ... in that Japanese Hut, tasting how Japanse serve tea and so on ... and there is Tea somekind of Arts quite boring if u dunno how to enjoy it! Got four leaf clover there if u too bore ... u can search for it ... quite many haha^^

Japanese Botanical Garden ... Got 1 Japanese Restaurant n 1 Tatami Spa there ... and the services was very expensive! Tatami Spa is quite nice i heard but u gotto spend quite $$ for it In tat garden, if you lucky enough, you might see some gorrilla and orang utan, got hornbil bird there too!

Rabbit Farm... Well... no comments... quite many rabbit... behind got some rain deer, donkey riding, paintball, archery...

Bukit Tinggi Resort... Team vs Team Paintball Games in old driving range... Bowling and Snookering ...n many more

If you like excitement, Bukit Tinggi may not be the place that you may go! Spend one nite there shud be ok unless you wanna travel around Kampung Bukit Tinggi, or may be Bentong! If u want more extreme... den i suggest you go Genting ba!

In the old Bukit Tinggi which was a kampung there ... There's was a "Private Zoo"! Is a Private area...

Famous with Pisang Susu 牛奶焦 (Red/purple colour type of pisang, quite big and large), River Fish, foods, Ginger Bentong, Veges and many more...
Famous with Seafood Restaurant... Selesa Hillhomes nothing much there le!
That's Bukit Tinggi

Along the way to Bentong: Hutan Lipur Lentang... very nice for river bathing, it will b pack during weekend and holiday time! One of the biggest Petronas Perhentian there with Buffet Style Restaurant inside!

Old Road From Bentong to Bukit Tinggi and also KL: Natural Hot's Spring (can boil haf boil egg but take longer time), 7 Miles(something like hutan lipur lentang), Malaysia Hutan Tropic Resort, Camping Area, along the old road ... near to Plaza Toll Bentong, you will see some orchards resort, is another private area but still you can try out ... Many Orchard... if u like durian do try out Bentong Famous Type : 毛山王 ... Around RM12 ~ 20/kg! And many orchard resort inside there ...

In Bentong, there's famous with foods if you know where to go, Tom Yam, Ice Kacang, Ice Cream, Nasi Kerabu and many more... Also famous with Hutan Lipur Chamang, "Morning Jog" at Graveyard ... haha^^

No direct bus go to Bukit Tinggi, best if you can drive around with cars!

This post has been edited by ukiya: Jul 29 2008, 08:10 PM

just drive there as the road is not as bad as Genting. 1 day trip or 1 day overnight is good enough ... while on the way back to KL look out for restaurants on your left (its like a sub-old-kampung-road) .. i tried the wild boar meat, steam fish, and frogs ... awesome!

OMG..that's the boring place i ever been. On the way there,i saw a babi Hutan..dam huge

Bukit Tinggi is fun if you go in a huge crowd...we took lots and lots and lots of picture.....but walking up and down the hills was very tiring - at least for me ......I went there for 2D 1N...had BBQ at night then walk walk around all the villages the next day and take photo...the last time (also my first time) I went there, i think they are constructing a Spanish village (not sure true or not)...wonder if it's done....however, the scenery there is really nice....i took a few photo and it look like some painting....my sis asked me if it is real or only a painting....

Couple Jalan-Jalan Place, 1 night cukup-lah, if want more fun 2nd night go to Genting-lol.

Anyone experienced staying in Selesa Resort before ? How is it based on your experience ? Thinking of getting the hotel room on my stay over there.

hi, if i go there with a bunch of friends, where sadly we all dun have car, is it convenient? we won't mind paying extra for taxi to bring us around. or is the places near to each other? since we are young, a 15 minutes walk should b ok :-)

bkt tinggi......upon entering u need to pay around RM17++ perpax

hmmm, what can i say........if you are song writer...or an artist..........this is quite and nice place for you..........yup, it's a one day place.........i find the japanese garden nice..........and i do agree to above comments that, you go there and kill ur batteries and memory card as for nature lover as me, I just enjoy the scenary.......and enjoy myVtec roaring to reach the top of bkt tinggi....especially those to the japanese .....this is were i could smell my Falken Azenis rubber......

food.....buffet is the best and a bit pricey..RM55++ per pax as i recall.........my recommendation, bring your own food.......go back to KL.......then eat kaw2 anywhere

as for Selesa resort.......went there once for my company treasure hunt........quite,cool and private place......feels near to nature

Although I do love nature a lot, Berjaya Hills are quite boring place with low maintenance by Berjaya itself. You have to pay a lot but its not worth what you get. Food was good in term of taste and price. I rather pay extra money for toll and fuel to get into Cameron than this hills.

This post has been edited by Putraskyline: Feb 17 2009, 01:45 PM

Have to agree with that, Cameron offer more natural view and have that feel of higher places with cold weather, tea orchad and etc.
But the pics at Colmar is quite beautiful, and I think 1 day trip is enough.

U mean at Bkt tinggi resort area itself?

Stayed at selesa, yup its a quiet place and feels more private
Furthermore u can drive to the opposite side (a small road going under karak) to enjoy food and further explore (janda baik?)

I been there for one-day trip, by driving up there..

I think 1 night is more than enough actually..

It is a great place to take photo's , and there is a rabbit farm too !
There got Japanese culture garden and Frances culture town, quite nice.. I like the environment there , kinda peace and slow~

Its RM10 per adults . There got free shuttle van that can transport you between few places ~

Been there too, nothing much too do really. The food is quite expensive too, especially when it is peak season. The japanese village, is quite nice, but if I'm not mistaken, have to pay money. If i'm wrong please correct me on this.


-----------------------------------------------------------

The road there seems to be so curvy, overall still good. but lately those restaurant services arent as good as usual, getting slow, assistance getting lesser & lesser, i suggest you to buy some food there. There is a pool as well.

Pool are not well maintained. The path from hotel room to the pool are so dirty .

I've just been to Bukit Tinggi and many other local spots in Malaysia...

My opinion is that there is not much to do even in the Colmar resort, but I absolutely loved them rabbits. So cute!

Some of the hills along the way up, are covered in pristine jungle, although most are secondary forest.

This is only for people who like peace and solitude, but make sure to bring $$$ along. An ice lemon tea can cost you $6++!!

I liked the Japanese Tea Garden, but very expensive to stay overnight.

The weather is cool, but not so cold as to be freezing, and the air is quite fresh. A nice retreat place overall.

nice description...

how much budget that we need if we go there such as archery , horse riding, japanese village, etc.? exclude food .


Do we need to park somewhere if we wanna go inside there. or we can drive our car to tour in there ?

HI
anyone from penang
or anyone who knows the way from penang to bukit tinggi(colmar tropicale),pls give your details here

1)if i drive then how long will it take,and how much is the tol?
2)if i take bus ,how much is it from butterworth?

The journey driving from KL to Bkt Tinggi is not more than 30 minutes say from Kepong. Don't think there's any bus service goin there from KL.

Was wondering if the Japanese Village & "Paris"Village is at the same location or same hill?

How far are they from Kuala Lumpur?

How is the climate there approx how many degrees C? Is it cold do we need to bring a jacket?

berjaya hills is also known as bukit tinggi.
The hotels all are located quite close to each other.

Anyone tried the japanese spa there?
I google but got no review
Very expensive

its a place u go to get away from the hectic city life..
go up there rent a bike or play some sports game
but 1night i think its suffice

Have u been to the japanese village??
Hows the spa there??

spa in pj better

one night is more than enough, if u go there two nights, u gonna die there.. rly ntg to do there, taking photo, and most of the activity u can finish in day one..

so how far is it from KL city centre?

+-45minutes, depending on traffic.
Been there few years back, with family because Petronas was organizing their family day there.


Hm to those who recently been there, how much is the budget for one night stay ?

I want to go to berjaya hill in october but the problem is i don't know whether there are any van or transportation to go there.
I prefer not to drive. So guys and girls from ipoh can give me any ideas where to find transportation to go there?
Share your experience if you have been there before? Such as price, food or attractions.

Thanks!!

Sifu please teach me, lets say, if start from Plaza Damas, Sri Hartamas.

Stimix: Tnx I hv merged all topics related to Bkt tinggi

This post has been edited by stimix: Sep 10 2009, 11:54 PM

if go there.

only two accomodation?

selesa resort and berjaya one?

Colmar also there mah..

Btw. That Hill Call Berjaya Hills?

All Property Belong To Berjaya

Well. Colmar Is Expensive.

I think if go there, Colmar is better la... no need to drive here there d..

Limited Food Selection lor...

Basically 1 nite there is perfect. Go early.

to Berjaya Hill

Drive from KL. It take How Long to reach? Milleage?

I was in BT for the weekend, stayed at selesa resort. Got it for RM280 for a 3 bedroom apartment. It takes about 45 minutes or so to reach from KL. If you're staying at Selesa, make sure you go the Kampung Bukit Tinggi, got lots of chinese restaurants which are SO affordable!

Which is the best? Anyone have any experience to share? I'm thinking a honeymoon there actually Anything to do over there?

Is Colmar Tropicale the best? http://www.berjayahotel.com/berjayahills/gallery.asp

Please share!

i dun understand the map, is it bukit tinggi=fraser hill?

That maps is zoom-out maps-lah..very basic..& berjaya hill is just Easr of Genting ..Nothing related to Fraser..fraser is located closer to Perak border near Kuala Kubu, Tg malim Perak area. Going there u need to use either Rawang or Bkt Beruntung exit from NSE..whereas, Genting/Verjaya using the same route to Kuantan...diff

I REALLY wouldn't recommend BT as a honeymoon spot, nothing much to do. I've been to Colmar Tropicale and found it too boring. The most just stay there one night is enough.

bukit tinggi is not fraser hill dude

Yeah for me Colmar Tropicale is a good place for me to escape from the bustle of city life.
Especially at night. Cozy and u can enjoy nice view or have a walk in the French-style village.

But i wouldn't recommend/suggest u to go there for honeymoon.


Nopez.

Me n my gf is planning to go Bukit Tinggi 2mr...is thr any time limit to go up n down the hills? i heard thr is... any things that v can do up thr? plz suggest....thanks

i agree that 1 night is enough as it would be too boring ... nothing much to do there ... just went there 2 weeks ago ...

cheapest stay in bkt tinnggi?

or day trip will do?

I would say day trip will do.

does anyone know is there any direct bus to Bukit tinggi from KL?

Getting To Bukit Tinggi Resort

There are buses operated by Bukit Tinggi Resort that takes visitors up to Colmar Tropicale and back. You can take the shuttle bus at Berjaya Times Square or KL Plaza at Bukit Bintang.

Further information can be obtained by calling +6 09 288 8888.

i see, how much does the bus fares cost?

if i wish to hv a one day trip to Bukit Tinggi, how much budget that i need to set and prepare? Includes the entrance fees and other entertainment fees. which is the most recommended entertainment there? i heard it is mostly visiting and embracing the nature only is it?hmmm...

plan to have only a one day trip there as i planned to book my accomodation at KL which may be much cheaper.

The bus depart from Berjaya Times Square KL twice a day; 9.30am and 2.30pm. While, depart from Bukit Tinggi is at 12pm and 4.30pm.




The fare is RM40.00 for return trip (adult/child same price) and for one trip is about RM25.00 (adult/child). Or, you can contact the person-in-charge, Mr. Aziz at +6012-224-4208.


bring RM500 enough for 2 pax

u mean the bus fares comprise of RM25 for one way ? not included the entrance fees?

I never go Berjaya Hill before. But heard that the Tatami Spa in Japanese Village is quite nice. Feel like wanna give a try.

Any comment about the Tatami Spa??

why the bus fares so expensive from Kl to Bukit tinggi ??
i thought it is only for a short distance there?

is there an entrance fee to bukit tinggi?

RM10.00/adult & RM5.00/child if nt mistaken

just went there, the price has been increased to RM 12 per adult....actually, not much to see there...and not much cool air =.='

planning to bring my missus up there for a day of escape from KL, gonna be up there to dine well, and spent a night together.

how does selesa hillhomes fare for young couples? anybody can share their experiences staying there?

cheers.

been there during 2000. It was okay. Very calm indeed.. hehehe

if u're planning to have a getaway and relax, this place would be ideal.. If i'm not mistaken, it used to have a pool and a disco ( i remembered as it was my 1st time entering a disco at that age... )

i've been there early 2009. its a very very calm resort. they hv a pool but the disco is no longer there. i heard its haunted

Been there twice and blogged about it. It's a fairly quiet place with not much to do. I went with my cousins so that was so much fun. But if for couples - unless you're okay with staying in and doing nothing, wouldn't really recommend this place.

how to go there? where's da link for ur blog Cas? wanna read more

hey peeps. went up there with my missus as told, and we enjoyed the place.

we were torn between selesa and colmar tropicale, and i have to say that selesa is definitely the better place if youre going there as a couple. calm, quite, almost deserted kind of feeling - just you with that special person. you can even afford to go loud in your room and nobodys gonna come over and tell you to shut up. good food is 3 minutes drive away at bukit tinggi township - had myself a 'sun hock' fish steamed lightly with accompaniments.

colmar wise , its a bit too far of a drive to begin with, and the fact that so many people visit the place everyday, it kinda takes away the quiet and serenity of the place. not to mention expensive food too. no doubt its beautiful and stuff, but it is better suited to those who travel in groups.

hope this is helpful to help some future readers to make decision.

I heard it is a good place and I want to visit this as well but I am quite afraid about the danger that I may face because of the experience of my sister during her vacation. If you have ever been someplace that makes pickpockets a big deal because of the theft, you will know you will need to protect against. Travel belts are accessible to protect your money and identification, but they're often uncomfortable, unfashionable and just scream "tourist.". Shashitwear is supposedly comfortable and is secure. Law officials are worried the convenience of a hidden compartment in underwear might lead to more drug trafficking.

am planning to go Bukit Tinggi for travelling.
In my information,
From KL ( Times Square ) to Bukit Tinggi by Shuttle bus (Daily departure from Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur at 9.30am and 2.30pm)
Overnight one day over there.
The next day go to Genting Highland. Here is the problem comes. How I go to Genting Highland from Bukit Tinggi???? I heard that by cab is expensive! Any tranport I can ride to move to Genting Highland?
The buffet in France Village is need to be reserved. Who should I confirm with?

Kindly require more information to assist me.

Went there for day trip. I can't understand why the Japanese Village required RM12 per entry for adult? It seems like nothing much other than the scenery to catch a little bit at there. Then about one hour, it's like already walked the whole Japanese Village including the Botanic Garden >"<

plan to hv a day trip to BT by public transport..

how much budget that i need to set and prepare?purposely go thr for relax and enjoy the fresh air.....

hi,

i wonder would it be a good place for a birthday celeb? any specific places to picnic? /or just sit and enjoy own food? haha...im thinking of a romantic, simple, quit time with my other half....cake just bring from KL........i dont fancy and fancy dinner...just quality time togather........any suggestions to make it more interesting? would they mind i just bring my own mat and just sit at any grassess/park or something..hahaha........

cheers...

anyone went to bukit tinggi before? which resort is the best and cheap? any place recommended?

There's only the berjaya resort there lor and the fake french village. Then at the foot of the mountain, at the new village there, got Selesa Hill Homes.

is bukit tinggi cold? plan to go with family and with babies along. worried that it will be too cold for the infant

For me its just chill and windy. Not so cold la ... unless rainy season!

Well... recently when i visit there, the entrance ticket actually comes with 20% off for meal vouchers which printed at the back side of the ticket. Correct me if i m wrong...

which one the best accom at bkt. tinggi,either meranti suite park,selesa hill homes or colmar? any suggestion pls..

Dear Sifus,
I plan to go to Bukit Tinggi this coming march. It it the best place to go compare to Genting or Cameron Highland.

what interesting at Bukit Tinggi...???

Hi there. If you're going for total relaxation, then Bukit Tinggi is a good place to unwind. But don't expect the place is like Genting...it is not as cold as Genting and the night activities are lesser in comparison to Genting.

Things to do there...you can explore their Japanese Village, their botanical garden, horse riding, rabbit park. They do have some other activities at the resort but you must check their timetable and shuttle to all these places are provided for in-house guest.

Nothing to do much at night, but they do have pool/snooker table and big screen at the open area which play movies until midnight...however their BBQ dinner is superb...makan2 will be at the resort...I don't see any mamak stall or warung nearby. Totally controlled by the resort...but the food is okay and tasty.

I would say it's a place for those who loves nature or those who loves photography, it's a good place to get great shot. Not advisable to stay more than 2 nights...

Hey peeps! I'm organizing a class trip that has about 15 of us that are going over to Colmar Tropicale for one night stay. Is there any way that I can save up on the room rates? Can we book one or two family rooms and squeeze everyone inside? I heard that the resort is really strict and they do not allow customers to do that. Is it true?

Bukit Tinggi Klang?

Someone reply me please ;(

If budget is a main concern, I suggest you don't visit Colmar as the place is designed to squeeze every Ringgit from the visitors. Food is expensive, activities is expensive and it is located so isolated for a reason. You have NO choice. For a one night trip, I suggest Frasier's Hill. More relaxing and cooler there too. You can organise hiking treks and this don't need extra money. Food is much cheaper there.

Yes very true! Everything is expensive.
In my opinion Bukit Tinggi don't need to stay over.. just go for a day trip will be sufficient

Is room crashing allowed?

i've been there for 3-4 times already..

my opinion...boring...unless u just want to relax...
if u plan to have kind of journey...this is not the place..

1st time i've been there...i arrived at night..i quite suprised with the french wannabe village...but when the next morning...the beatiful scene last night dissapeared...the building is totally weathered...n the maintenance seem doesn't fit..

just my experiance...

Hi there, I would like to know if there is any bus service taking passengers from KL to Bukit tinggi, just like KL to genting.
Please help
