 Dear Readers, 

Let Us Together Explore The Adventurous Yet Fun Side Of Negeri Sembilan Over The Weekend

Today sharing will be a little bit lengthy but I promise you that it will be a fun yet enjoyable one! It is all about my recent weekend trip to explore the fun part of Negeri Sembilan that I never discover before. It is more than just a JJCM trip. Are you ready? 

"Let's get started!"

I was thrilled when I received an invitation from Tourism Malaysia Central for the "Program Lawatan Produk Pelancongan Di Negeri Sembilan Bersama Social Media Influencers" and my first reaction without hesitation was "YES, I DO". This trip happened on the 29th October 2021 - 31st October 2021. After two weeks of waiting and preparation, finally the day I have been waiting for has arrived. 

Malaysia Tourism Centre (MaTiC), Kuala Lumpur

Our first day started with the gathering of all the participants at Malaysia Tourism Centre (MaTiC), Kuala Lumpur. As we are traveling in the new normal, the first thing first before the group departure is to perform the COVID-19 Ag Saliva Self Test.

COVID-19 Ag Saliva Self Test

Oh yes, everyone in the team is "NEGATIVE" and we are ready to go! Sharp at 9.00 A.M., we departed from MaTiC heading to our first destination, X Park Bandar Sri Sendayan, Seremban. In the middle, we make a quick stop for breakfast at Hentian Sebelah Serdang Arah Selatan. The journey was a smooth one without much traffic and we reached our destination around 11.00 A.M. 

 

Day 1 First Stop: X Park Bandar Sri Sendayan, Seremban

X Park Sendayan is known as the largest entertainment venue in Negeri Sembilan that boasting over 34-acres of exciting attractions and event spaces. Here at X Park Sendayan, you can try out 18 recreational activities that are suitable for the whole family, especially their extreme sports. On top of that, there are also well-maintained facilities for badminton, fishing, golf and many more.

This park is strategically located in the uprising township of Bandar Sri Sendayan that is easily accessible with great connectivity by the Seremban - Port Dickson Highway, North - South Expressway (PLUS) and Senawang - KLIA Expressway (Proposed Highway). 

 

Upon our arrival, we proceed to the ticket counter and make all necessary arrangement. Similar to all other places, you are required to check-in our MySejahtera, perform body temperature check and sign the consent form before embark on the track.

Perform All Necessary SOPs And Sign The Consent Form

The first activity here will be the Go-Kart ride. As safety is everyone's priority, it is required for you to wear the hand-glove and safety helmet. The glove is available to be purchased here if you did not bring one with you.

Hand Glove And Helmet On - I'm Ready For The Ride

I was a bit worry while walking into the track as this was my first time trying the Go-Kart ride. We will be on the track for the next 10-minutes to enjoy the ride. Nah, it is just a fun-ride and no pressure at all. 

On My Favourite And Lucky Number Kart (Number 8) - 10 Minutes Ride

Next, we go for the All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) ride and it is suitable for the beginner as the terrain is just a flat route with zero difficulty, for me lah! The ATV is pretty simple to operate as we just to press the fuel to move and break to stop the vehicle. This is a great training before we going for the next level of ATV ride in the afternoon. 

After ATV Ride - The Field Behind Is Part Of Our ATV Route

After the ride, we had the archery shooting followed with the paintball target shooting. In the package we purchased, we will have 12 arrows and 25 pellets respectively for each activities. It was pretty fun as it has been years that I didn't shoot an arrow, i think last was during my secondary school back in the early 2000s. 

Archery Shooting Session (12 Arrows Provided)

As for the paintball target shooting, just be extra careful for the bounced back pellet. It can be hurt when it hit on you, ya! The best is just let the shooter on the ground while other just stand outside of the area. 

Paintball Target Shooting - 25 pellets

Okay, I have completed the first activity for Day 1.

 

You must be wondering how much the entire 4 games going to be cost, right? Trust me, it is so affordably cheap ya! All 4-games for only RM 80.00. Yes, this is because X Park Sendayan do have combos that are cheaper compare to individual game. For more information about the pricing, you can refer to the picture below.

Before we took off on the flying fox heading to the ATV check-point, we have a round of safety briefing especially on what to expect from this activity. Hey, do pay attention to this briefing because different flying fox service providers will have different operating procedure. So, do take note on this, okay?

For the preparation to take off, he make sure that we are fully prepared and 100% ready before he "Set Us Free" from the take-off platform. This flying fox ride is just a short one that will be completed in less than a minute. For me, "Shout, Shout, Eh Sampai".

Preparation Before Take-Off For The Flying Fox

Once everyone gathered at the landing point, we are now ready for the real All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) ride. We were briefed on how to operate and given an idea ahead on what to expect especially we will be exploring the hilly terrain here with ATV. We are semi-pro now since we have learned how to drove the ATV at X Park Sendayan earlier.

After the ATV ride before we heading back to the Registration Counter, we had a quick tour to explore Kg Jkin Resort. There are several type of accommodations available here and the one that really caught my attention was the Hobbit style room, tree house and few others options.

Day 2 Second Stop: Jeti Nelayan Teluk Pelanduk

After visiting PD London Bus Retro Village, we had our quick lunch just right in front of the entrance to this retro village at Ayam Bakar Pasu Terlangkup. The concept of dining here is Self-Service where you will need to order and pick-up your own foods and drinks at the stall, then make the payment. 

 

Most of us having the Nasi Ayam since this is the quickest and iced lemon to quenches our thirst. While having our lunch, we decided to visit a nearby jetty that kind of well-known to the local, but not to few of us from Kuala Lumpur as this gonna be our first time visiting. It is just approximately around 10 minutes from Ayam Bakar Pasu Terlangkup.

This is definitely a perfect spot for you to take the sunset scenery and some even mentioned about milky way since it is quite undisturbed and open space. Maybe I can come and revisit this place again to hunt for the sunset view and also take some night scenery shots here in the near future. Agree? 

While we were visiting during the bright sunny day, here are some of the shots that I can share with you.

Thanks Tourism Malaysia For The Umbrella

There is a restaurant at the entrance so you can order foods and enjoy the scenery that Jeti Nelayan Teluk Pelanduk has to offer with your family and friends here. But during our visit, the restaurant is still out from operation, maybe too early at 2.00 P.M.

 

Day 2 Third Stop: Cape Rachoda Lighthouse, Tanjung Tuan

Our next stop on Day 2 will be Cape Rachado Lighthouse! Now, you must be wondering actually Tanjung Tuan is located at Melaka or Negeri Sembilan, right? Let me shed some lights on this based on my reading.

 

This lighthouse is located in the Alor Gajah District which is exclave of Melaka adjacent to Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan. It is believed to be one of the oldest lighthouse here in our country, dating back to the time when Portuguese rules Melaka during the 16th century. The main function of this construction was to guide the Portuguese ships through the narrow Straits of Melaka.

Cape Rachado (Tanjung Tuan) Lighthouse

However, the present lighthouse was constructed in the 1863 when Melaka status as a British-ruled Straits Settlement. An additional concrete tower was built by to the original lighthouse to house a MEASAT radar with the function to monitor ship traffic in the Strait of Melaka and to aid in communication. 

 

The lighthouse is not open to the public, hence we are not allow to explore the lighthouse structure. So, we just walk around and took some magnificent view scenery overseeing the Straits of Melaka. 

The Strait Of Melaka View From Cape Rachado Lighthouse

After we took few pictures here, we decided to make our move to the next destination. But not long after that, we met a group of visitors and they shared with us some of the pictures they took at Pulau Intan. Hey, we were amazed by the view at the beach, okay! Without hesitation, we started our journey and hike down the trail to discover the beach! Oh yes, it took approximately 10 - 20 minutes for us to put our first footprint here by the beach.

Trekking Down The Trail - Proper Staircase Like This Until You Reach The Beach

Look what I found during my trekking session, a mushroom that look alike to the Mushroom of Immortality aka Lingzhi Mushroom.

While trekking down, remember to take as many photo you want whenever you discover an interesting spot! Trust me, you will thanks me for that because I will share with you why after this!

Sun-kisses At Pulau Intan, Tanjung Tuan! Seriously Love The View And Environment Here

I feel like I am exploring the private beach as it is so quiet and only us occupying the whole beach ya! The beach is pretty clean except some common area where we can see litters were left behind from the previous visitors. Hey, be a responsible visitors if you are visiting any attractions in near future, do bring the litter with you unless there are trash bins prepared! Don't destroy the beauty of the places with the unethical behaviors.

After spending about half and hour here, it is time for us to hike back up the trail to reach the top! This is the time when you fully understood why the trail was called "Denai Tangga Taubat". Hiking down took us 10 - 20 minutes but going back up, we need double of the time with multiple pit stops ya! Bethol-Bethol Bertaubat Ye, guys! It was a easy hiking but the stony staircase is the real culprit!

Will I Come Back Again In Near Future? Of Course, Yes!

Day 2 Forth Stop: Uncle Wong Happy Farm

Actually we plan to visit Batu Putih but we kinda run out of time since we will need to reach Uncle Wong Happy Farm based on the time slot that was arranged for us. So, maybe we will revisit Tanjung Tuan again, okay? 

Uncle Wong Happy Farm is located at Lukut, Negeri Sembilan. It is just an hour plus journey from Kuala Lumpur depending on the traffic. But since we are already here at Port Dickson, it took us about half and hour to reach the destination. The road is kinda bumpy and rough as we will need to travel through the unpaved road before reaching the entrance of Uncle Wong Happy Farm.

Unpaved Road Heading To Uncle Wong Happy Farm

Hooyah! We have reach the entrance and everything here is so colorful that the environment immediately create a happy vibe the moment we arrived. Here at Uncle Wong Happy Farm, they offer extreme sports like ATV ride, pedal boat ride, kayak ride, fishing and many more. There are a mini petting zoo and several great Instagrammable spots.

Uncle Wong Happy Farm Entrance

Our first activity here will be the ATV ride! By this time, we are already PRO ya guys! This is the third time we have the ATV ride but trust me, although we are riding the ATV again and again, each offers us a different kind of experiences. Here at Uncle Wong Happy Farm, the route that we going to conquer will be a hilly estate! The entire course will be completed within an hour time. 

ATV Ride At Uncle Wong Happy Farm - Signature All-Terrain Vehicle

Similarly to other locations, safety is everyone priority. Before we embark on our ATV journey, we were given the safety helmet and sign the consent form follow by a safety briefing by Uncle Wong. Hey, he is so friendly and nice person.

ATV Ride Safety Briefing

Before the real journey begins, we were given 5 to 10 minutes riding around the entrance for us to familiarize with our own ATV and once everyone is comfortable, the journey begin that led by the staff. The route will explore the estate full with the plantations, ponds and great nature views too!

ATV Ride At Uncle Wong Happy Farm

For me, the best time to visit will be before the dawn as we will have the chance to view the best sunset where you can't get it else where. It has it own charm compare to the sunset at the city or by the beach.

Some Of The Challenging Trail That Will Make You Scream!

That's a wrap for our ATV ride after one hour journey exploring the estate. Next, we have the water ride by the lake. I took the pedal boat ride while my friends opt for the kayak! Each ride is for two person only.

I had so much fun here and before we depart, Uncle Wong invited us for a quick game. It really tested our speed and accuracy tho! The machine has 10 sticks and it will be dropped randomly. I just manage to catch two to three out of ten with my own way! After everyone tried it out, Uncle Wong shared with us a trick on how we can catch more ya and voila, I manage to catch 8 out of 10 okay. Do you wanna know the trick? Let me know, okay.

Finally, we have come to the last day of my weekend trip with Tourism Malaysia Central. It was pretty relaxing because we will have more leisure time as there will be no more outdoor activities. After checking out from the hotel, we visited Muzium Negeri Sembilan.
