Jalan Hemat Kuala Lumpur

Another budget trip for me and my husband, this time to Kuala Lumpur. We have purchased the ticket a year in advance during the Air Asia Rp 0 promo (free seats). Thanks to our friend Yenni Puspo who helped us buying the ticket and also booking Tune hotel in downtown KL. Later on I upgraded the ticket with pre-purchased meals, skybus ticket, so in total the ticket cost IDR 545,196 for two person (incl two way bagage for 15 kg). Yenni recommend Tune hotel for us. At that time I had never stayed in Tune hotel before. But as the hotel were having Rp 0 promo (free rooms) as well, we agree with her recommendation. Our two night stay cost only IDR 423.000 nett. Unbelivable.

About one month I prepared the itinerary. Confused where to go in the short time in KL. First we'd like to go to Melacca, that was the plan a. But we thought that two days in KL will be too short, we go back to the original plan : just vising KL. So here's our itinerary:

Day 1: Go to Petronas tower early in the morning to queue up the tickets, visit the twin tower, shopping and lunch at Suria KLCC, visit Masjid Jamek and Dataran Merdeka, visit Putrajaya.

Day 2: Go to Ikea Damansara, visit Bukit Bintang, go back to KL sentral.

A very short visit indeed, and this time we made our itinerary with the detail budget. It's our first time ever, but we have to stay on track as this year we'll have holiday up to 5 times:)

Ok, we'll update our KL story really soon :)
