Discover the highlands in comfort with a privately guided Land Rover experience, operated by our trusted local partner. Priced at MYR 400 nett per vehicle (accommodating 2–6 guests), this half-day journey of approximately four hours includes visits to the Mossy Forest, Tea Plantation, Strawberry Farm, Kea Farm morning market, and other highlights. Tours typically commence between 8:30am and 10:30am, though alternative morning timings may be arranged upon request.
Private Taxi Arrangement
For guests who prefer flexibility, a private taxi may be arranged at MYR 35 nett per hour (minimum three hours). This option provides transportation between your chosen attractions, with the driver waiting at each stop. Please note this is not a guided tour, and the Mossy Forest is not included in this arrangement. Timing may be scheduled in the morning or afternoon according to your preference.
Kindly note that both experiences are operated by external partners, and payment is to be made directly in cash to the respective driver or guide.
The Jim Thompson Mystery Experience is an immersive guided walk that follows the trail of Jim Thompson’s last known footsteps in the Cameron Highlands. Guests explore scenic forest paths while learning about his life, achievements, and the enduring mystery of his disappearance. It’s an experience that combines history, storytelling, and the Highlands’ natural beauty, offering both intrigue and discovery along the way.
To add this experience to your itinerary, kindly contact our concierge via WhatsApp or reach our Travel Centre by phone or email.
Jim Thompson was an American entrepreneur renowned for revitalising Thailand’s silk industry in the mid-20th century.
