3. Itinerary:

Day 1: June 26 (Saturday)

Meal provided: Dinner:

We convoy to Port Dickson where the exclusive Legend International Water Homes are located. This recently-launched property is an extension to the existing Legend Water Chalets resort. Just like the Water Chalets, the Water Villas are built over the sea, which means that you get an amazing all-round sea view.

For complete exclusivity, each Water Villa comes with its own private swimming pool. Every unit has reinforced glass panels on the floor, which allows you to see the fish and crabs scampering for food on the seabed.

As check-in time is 3 pm, we will first visit the Port Dickson Ostrich Farm where you can enjoy some interesting farm experience. You may ride an ostrich if you wish. There is also an ostrich race, pony rides, monkey show, baby crocodile, and ostrich satay to sample. There is a retail shop that sells products made from ostrich skin.

After checking-in at the resort, I think everyone would prefer to remain in their villas to enjoy the exclusive facilities, so it will be free & easy for the rest of the afternoon.

In the evening, we will proceed to a nearby seafood restaurant for dinner. Being a Saturday, there is a Night Market in Port Dickson town. Hawkers sell everything from local fruits, snacks, souvenirs, clothing, toys, etc. As the durian season is still in bloom in June, you will most probably be able to get these fruits at the Night Market.

Day 2: June 27 (Sunday)

Meals provided: Breakfast

After breakfast, it’s free & easy until we check-out at 12.00 noon. From Port Dickson, we’ll drive south to Melaka for shopping and lunch.

The city of Melaka needs no introduction. From a sleepy little town, it has become a bustling, congested shopping and eating haven. For convenience and security, we’ll park our cars at the Equatorial Hotel in Bandar Hilir.

Bandar Hilir is the ‘Orchard Road’ of Melaka. All the modern major shopping malls are there, together with the city’s Nonya restaurants and historical legacies.

Chinatown, where you can get delicious Peranakan cuisine, snacks and cookies, is only 10-15 minutes’ walk from Equatorial Hotel. Trishaws are aplenty and they are a better option than driving around looking for a parking lot.

We’ll spend a few hours in Melaka, after which we’ll continue our journey back home to Singapore. Let me know if you wish to stay one night in Melaka. I will help you with the hotel booking at Equatorial.

We should reach the 2nd Link by early evening.
