This was our itinerary through Asia. Some places will be repeated, as we really liked them. But we did not have time to visit some places due to the number of days. What I would add:
1. Extra day on Koh Lipe
2. An extra day in Singapore with a visit to the rest of the attractions of Sentosa Island and the hanging jungle of Gardens by the Bay
3. In Langkawi, visit the Air Terjun Temurun Waterfall, in February we had a low season for it.
4. Langkawi tour of the northern islands.
5. Extra day in Kuala Lumpur to visit the panorama from the Petronas Towers and the national show.
6. Due to the fact that they did not buy tickets for the Langkawi-Penang ferry in advance. I had to get across the mainland.
