I’m heading to Malaysia from India in November, and since it’s my first trip outside of India, I’m feeling a bit nervous.
First off, is Malaysia safe for tourists? Are there any common scams I should be aware of, like with shops, guides, or taxi drivers?
Also, I’m vegan, and since Malaysia is an Islamic country, will I be able to find Indian or vegetarian food there?
Since Malaysia is mostly a Muslim country, it is advised to dress modestly. Ensure that your usual vaccinations are up to date, and think about getting extra ones like the hepatitis vaccine.
