after many, many suggestions + a few casual warnings, we decided we would make the short, 1hr journey from our apartment in Kuala Lumpur - up to the Genting Highlands.

In this video we show you the cheapest and easy way to get up to the Genting Highlands, our honest opinions and first impressions and find out what there even is to do up there?

We also accidentally booked to stay in the WORLDS LARGEST HOTEL, - Genting First Worlds Hotel - that was rumoured to be haunted.

  • Biggest theme park and casino resort in the entire Southeast Asia region, I was told. I was truly impressed how they built all that up a mountain!

    Being a Malaysian who have been to Genting First World Hotel numerous times, this is the first time I get to see such clear view through hotel's window BTW fyi the place is indeed haunted for a few floors but it is inaccessible through the normal elevators or stairs as they are closed to the public. BTW It is good to knock before going in the hotel as it is a form of saying hi to "them" that you're actually stepping into "their" home.
  • @ms.andrea945
    actually you're right about the hauntedness of first world, I've been to Genting from young and thr was always this general belief that first world was one of the more haunted hotels compared to the others around Genting, especially with the corner rooms. There was also rumours that dead bodies was stored under some of the beds as temporary storage due to some financial issue of disposing it. Anyway I love that you bothered to knock the door before you entering because we would do that too (the chinese would knock 3 times), open the door (and if we feel a gust of wind, it'll mean that smt was in thr and it had just left, if thr was nth then we'll assume that the room was empty but well its all old superstitions too haha) and check the beds and cabinets to make sure that there was nth is there 😂 For the theme parks, shoes wasn't really a issue back then, we could just take them off if we were wearing slippers or slip ons

    Genting Skyworld also have mega coaster which is the orange track (SFX Coaster by Dynamic Attraction) this project was delayed due to financial problem and it set to be open in 2026 formerly it's going to be Aliens vs Predator theme but after Disney bought 20th fox studios some of IP franchise need to removed, this is one of the most edge coaster ever after the first at Abu Dhabi (Mission Ferrari) this is second in Malaysia
  • Thanks guys for sharing this nice & interesting vlog in Genting Highland Pahang Malaysia 🇲🇾 🌺🌺.
  • Such a cool theme park and resort! It's on our list of places to visit! 😁
  • @raymondng18
    Road to Genting is considered good and wide compared to the roads heading to Cameron Highlands or Frasers Hill in which is more windy and narrow 😅
  • @nickloong
    Never judge a book by its cover, by the way, its also the World's largest hotel with over 7 thousand rooms. Lol!😂
  • Welcome to Malaysia ❤😀 I often went Genting Highlands for staycation too ❤
  • i laughed, the way you chase away spirit in your room is so cute & funny, and hope you enjoyed your Genting trip!
  • @echxudn

  • @Yasin_Affandi
    Thanks for this wonderful video n for showing your explorations in Genting Highlands.
  • The old apartment block I was told is haunted. There are 2 blocks called ria apartment and the other one I forgot the name.. But never heard anything regarding the hotels, so you are safe.
  • @goodguyaus
    😂😇love how 'spirit'ually aware Hocking is (froyo fan too!); I remember the heebie jeebies we got as kids when our parents buggered off to the casino and left us up in the room with a bunch of snacks. Every howl of wind, every creak of the building would make our hairs stand up. Luckily there was a free theatre downstairs and arcades in the lobby. More importantly, there was the company of LIVING people.
