Malaysia has become increasingly popular with backpackers in recent years, with hostel dorms cheap and plentiful. Private rooms at mid-range hotels aren’t expensive either but cost more in the capital, Kuala Lumpur. Four- and five-star options are available in the major cities too.

Eating three-course meals at sit-down restaurants will bump up your budget. Alcohol prices are high to discourage drinking, which is frowned upon in Malaysia. And, if you fancy a little luxury or pampering, you’ll also find exclusive resorts and spas on most of the islands.

To divide your travel money up and avoid carrying too much cash, take a look at our Travel Money Card – a prepaid Mastercard that can be used for most payments.
