I'm staying in K.L. for 2 1/2 weeks at the end of August. I was thinking of doing 3-4 days in George Town as I'm into colonial history and architecture.

Does anyone have recommendations for transport? I'm open to driving but Malaysia seems to have a good train system. If it makes a difference, I have Hertz President's Circle status.

By the way, I'm flying into Singapore. I was going to take a low-cost carrier from SIN-KUL but I suppose I could drive from Singapore. Is that practical?

I also thought about taking off for 2-3 days and easier doing Burma or Cambodia. Has anyone else done this?
