About Tuah Travel & Tours
Your trusted local partner for authentic Malaysian nature adventures
Our Story
Tuah Travel & Tours was born from a simple belief: Malaysia's most beautiful places aren't on typical tourist maps.
Based in Kuala Lipis, Pahang - the historic former capital and gateway to Kenong Rimba Park - we're not just tour operators. We're locals who grew up exploring these jungles, swimming in these rivers, and camping under these rainforest canopies.
Our founder started guiding jungle treks as a teenager, learning from Orang Asli elders and experienced mountaineers. After years of working for larger tour companies, he realized something was missing: authentic, small-group experiences that respect both nature and local culture.
Today, we're a fully licensed travel agency specializing in what we know best: Pahang's hidden nature destinations. From the ancient rainforests of Kenong Rimba to secret waterfalls only locals know about, we take pride in showing you the real Malaysia.
Whether you're an international traveler seeking adventure or a Malaysian looking to rediscover your own backyard, we welcome you to experience nature the way it's meant to be experienced - authentically, respectfully, and unforgettably.
