GETTING AROUND
|
Tioman is a relatively undeveloped island - getting around is done mostly by trekking or by sea taxi. JapaMala Resort has its own boat which is available for hire on an hourly or per day basis.
There is a rough road between Tekek and Juara - on the East side of the Island - local operators will drive you there for approx RM35 one way. |
| |
| FLIGHTS |
Regular daily flights to Tioman from Kuala Lumpur and Singapore are available all year round. We would recommend these during the Monsoon season due to the possibility of rough seas.
For those wishing to extend their stay or proceed to other destinations within Malaysia - optional mainland tours and holiday packages can also be arranged on your behalf. Please check with our front office. |
| |
| We strongly advise you to fly in because the ferry/speedboat services from Mersing are deemed unreliable. At anytime should there be cancellation of trips hence causing a situation of being stranded at point of departure to Tioman, and this applies to both air and sea transportation, Japamala Resort shall not be held responsible for such predicament therefore will not refund any payment made earlier for booking of rooms. |

| FERRIES |
Ferries don’t stop at JapaMala, so you’re to alight at the nearest village called Genting. We will provide transfer at a fee of RM30 per person (including child 5 years old and above), please make your booking in advance
Resort boat transfers are not obligatory, there are local boat taxis available at the airport, as they may not have licences and insurance coverage the resort those not assume any responsibility if guests wish to use this mode of transfer |
