Few things you might want to know before your trip!

1. If you are wondering if you ever going to see the famous Malaysian tiger, you will be disappointed. I'm sorry to give you bad news: most of the tigers have been victims of poaching and unfortunately are animals in danger of extinction. So it’s almost impossible to see a tiger strolling around the jungle.

2. You can definitely have the chance to see deadly and poisonous snakes and spiders, giant ants and scorpions in the jungle of Taman Negara National Park. That would make it up for not seeing the tiger!
