Highlights
  • Kellie’s Castle - Once your driver has collected you, the adventure begins with a 2-hour drive northward in a 6-seater MPV Car / Minivan, leading to the majestic Kellie’s Castle. Nestled next to Sungai Raya in Perak, this grand, incomplete edifice was the brainchild of Scottish planter William Kellie-Smith, who envisioned it as a present for his spouse and to mark the birth of their child. Tragically, Kellie-Smith succumbed to pneumonia at 56, leaving the castle unfinished. Initiated in 1915, the construction halted in 1926.\n\nHis widow returned to Scotland, and now the castle stands as a fascinating destination for visitors, with rumors of it being haunted.\n\nThe structure transports you to a bygone era. It’s where parts of ‘Anna And The King’ (1999) and ‘Skyline Cruisers’ (2000) were shot.\n\nFor those interested in history and design, the castle features a blend of British Indian Mughal-Gothic architecture.\n\nGuests can wander through the expansive interior, including the rooms, wine cellar, elevator shaft, and the six-level tower. Some areas are staged with period furniture, offering a glimpse of its potential grandeur had it been completed.\n\nThe rooftop provides a panoramic view of the estate’s gardens.\n\nFollowing this, your trip proceeds to the Gopeng White River Rafting adventure.\n\nThis is an excellent primer to white water rafting, with manageable yet thrilling rapids set against a backdrop of orchards. The rapids range from Class 1-4.\n\nWhile exhilarating, participants must collaborate to navigate the raft smoothly to avoid collisions with rocks.\n\nThe Kampar River is renowned for its engaging white water rafting experiences.\n\nDuring the journey, you’ll confront 14 rapids, ranging from Class I-III, drift through pristine waters surrounded by rainforest, and pass historic tin mining areas.\n\nPrior to embarking, a safety briefing is conducted, covering paddling commands, skills, capsize procedures, and rescue operations.\n\nAfter a 10-15 minute orientation with our expert guides, you’ll be set for an unforgettable rafting journey.\n\nEngage in body-rafting, spin in the raft, or partake in a playful water fight with your companions. Embrace the wetness and reconnect with the natural world!\n\nAn experience not to be missed in a lifetime!
