You deserve more views because your work on the video was excellent...i'll always support you on every video you make...keep it up the good work... can't wait for the next one...

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi Heri, thanks so much for your kind comments. Thank you for your support!

[@connieg7692]

Wow, awesome video, I'm learning about so many places in Malaysia from your videos. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to more videos 🙂

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi Connie, so glad to hear that you are finding our videos helpful! Malaysia is an awesome country and we were determined on this trip to discover parts of the country that aren't as commonly visited but are just as wonderful!

[@BreakawayBites]

Tioman Island..Now that's place I haven;t been for the last 10 years.....Yes , Berjaya is the most luxurious among all the resort but my usual go-to would be Salang & ABC ...Seems like the ferry services have already taken a notch-up... Massive improvement based on my observation.... compared to the last time I was there..... Thanks again for putting up the hardwork... ( Yes, the trials and tribulations of being a content creator ) ... Keep grinding... Take care on the road and stay safe.... Cheers mates!!

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hey JT! It would have been good to visit more parts of the island like Salang and ABC to compare. We were looking at going to Juara beach on the other side of the island but didn't get round to it. Thanks for watching!

[@firstnamesecondname4888]

I will visit Tioman Island this summer Thanks for the video .

[@BucketListTravellers]

You're welcome! It is a really lovely island and there is much more to explore than what we did. Have a great trip!

[@nirfan2020]

Very nice indeed ❤👍

[@BucketListTravellers]

Thanks for watching!

[@SahifulTajuddin]

Whenever i meet foreign tourists after this, i tell them to watch your vlogs of your extensive travels in Peninsular Malaysia. They will get much clearer and more interesting info of where to visit and what to do there. TQVM for making very nice and extensive vlogs that are really beneficial to promote Malaysia beautiful nature to tourists worldwide.

[@BucketListTravellers]

Awww, thank you so much for your support SahifulTajuddin! That is so nice of you to do that. We love Malaysia dearly, it is a wonderful country with wonderful people like yourself! -Jon🙏🙏

[@brothersman524]

Ok I've just posted your Redang vlog and now you have been to Tioman Island as well. I have also been there as well. Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and Philippines have some of the best and most stunning tropical paradise islands

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi Brother SMan, thanks for watching! We have been to Perhentian islands as well and our video on this is our next video to share. You re right, South East Asia have the most amazing tropical islands. I'm surprised that the Malaysian islands aren't more popular, they are stunning!

[@Andy-zr3mp]

So beautiful place

[@BucketListTravellers]

Perhentian Islands were wonderful!🤩

[@CallunaTrip]

interesting video - cheers from poland

Thanks for watching Aga and Wrzos!

[@hairanirodzi3109]

Thank you guys for suggesting and promoting this Island. Most Aussies have no idea about places or islands in Malaysia to visit. If ask Aussie, most have been in Phuket Thailand , Bali. Where there are heaps of beautiful islands in Malaysia like Penang, Langkawi, Pangkor, Tioman , Perhentian Island and many more

[@BucketListTravellers]

😂😂 You are spot on Hairani! Funnily enough, we must be the only Aussies who haven't been to Bali!

Wow really nice 🤩Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 next time you may visit to other island such as Pulau rendang,Pulau perhentian ,Pulau Rawa .Langkawi also not bad ✌🏻

[@acerazak4087]

Oh u guys really went to Mersing n Pulau Tioman, bagus 👍 Tioman island is underrated it got many corals n fish, beautiful spots for snorkeling n scuba diving..My favorite place in Tioman is Sanglang beach where there are coral reefs right in front of the beach, no need to book a boat to go snorkeling or scuba diving

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi Ace, we completely agree with you! It was a great experience and yes we should have mentioned that you can snorkel straight onto the reef in some areas. Thanks for watching!

Nice breakfast

[@BucketListTravellers]

The selection was really good and we enjoyed it a lot!

[@rembautimes8808]

Loved this video and joined as a sub - how was the experience going on the stopping bus between Kluang and Mersing? Its an old straight road that goes from the west to the east.

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi @rembautimes8808, welcome to our channel!!🤗 Our experience with the bus between Kluang and Mersing was good. Whilst the bus was old, had poor suspension and had no air con, it was reminiscent of our bus rides through Nicaragua, which we loved. We don't need much more than windows and good airflow. It was also very cost effective!

[@user-pu8hl7zc8f]

If next time you go Tioman island stay Cheers chalet. I stay there for more then 20 trip ++. Clean and green + CCTV camera. Best month to go is end March - end October for divers

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi N, thanks for the recommendation!

[@ardentblue7493]

There is a direct flight to Tioman from KL's Subang Airport operated by SKS Airways

[@BucketListTravellers]

Thanks for letting us know. We saw that there were flights pre covid, but couldn't confirm whether they were running again.

[@maureentan1512]

Ferry tickets get sold out during the peak season, online booking is recommended. Looks like you're at the end of the season. There's much more to do out of Berjaya resort. Diving and snorkeling is by far better than Perhentian and Redang. Biking along the coast to ABC through villages is also a highlight.

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi Maureen, yes we had read that about the Ferryies getting sold out and did exactly what you recommended. Yes, we agree as well that there is a lot to do outside of the resort and regret not doing more. The biking idea sounds exactly what we would have loved to do. Thanks for watching.

[@maureentan1512]

@@BucketListTravellers we have timeshare at Berjaya, but always choose to stay within Tekek village for better, cheaper food choices, market, duty-free alcohol shops, and the beach is just as good.

[@BucketListTravellers]

@@maureentan1512 Thanks for the tips!

[@mariahnawi3683]

I think we can also travel there by plane from Subang Airport. Can check with Berjaya.

[@BucketListTravellers]

Oh really? We saw that there was an airport on the island, but weren't sure whether flights were still operating.

[@oscartangoromeo003]

Sorry sometimes we forgot.. lol.. another island we always forgot to mention is perhentian island..

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Some beaches(must be the empty ones) have beach sand flies, just becareful bring insect repellants

[@BucketListTravellers]

We realised why quickly why we were the only ones on the beach!

[@juanmariavive]

You like my grandma traveling... In a resort so boring and nothing about Tioman

[@BucketListTravellers]

😂😂 Yes, we were travelling like Grandma on this trip to Tioman! We needed an easy resort stay to recharge the batteries. We were a bit more active throughout the rest of our Malaysia trip and videos.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Juara beach is the best

[@BucketListTravellers]

Yes, we had looked at Juara beach and that looked really nice. We decied on Berjaya because it meant less hassle being closer to the port.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

You guys have to buy wireless microphones. The wind muffed the sound.

[@BucketListTravellers]

You're right! We were using our go pro when filming the windy bit. We do have a wireless microphone, but only for our phone and not the go pro.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

There are reef sharks as well.

[@BucketListTravellers]

That would have been cool to see!

[@keangwooichoo6138]

@@BucketListTravellers a vlogger recently showed it. Not far from the beach at juara. Mitchell brennan channel.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

As australians, what do you think about surfing there?

[@BucketListTravellers]

From what we saw at Berjaya resort, the waves weren't big enough to ride on.

[@faizkasim80]

tioman used to be the top10 island in the world.....

[@BucketListTravellers]

Yes we did see this when we researched it. We were surprised though to see that there weren't many vlogs about it. It appears that Perhentian island is much more popular with foreign tourists.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Question : is tioman a tax free island, is liqour expensive there?

[@BucketListTravellers]

We were aware that there was liqour available on the island and we think that Tioman is duty free as well. We don't drink alcohol regularly and didn't have any on the island, so sorry we can't confirm for you.

[@muhammadadlimukhlis4538]

WHICH ONE YOU PREFER REDANG , PERHENTIAN OR TIOMAN ISLAND

[@BucketListTravellers]

Ooooh controversial question! We didn't see too much of Tioman island and just stuck to the resort, so not sure we gave it a fair go. We liked the accommodation the best at Redang island, but the convenience of snorkelling off the beach best at Perhentian.

[@nutzhazel]

​@@BucketListTravellers I rent a motorcycle last time I was there and just drive around the island 😊

[@BucketListTravellers]

@@nutzhazel That sounds like a lot of fun and a great way to explore the island.

[@nickelroof6727]

Don't be fooled, I've just left there and your video is hyping it a bit. It's a very informative video, but I know why nobody's talking aobut it, and I suspect you do too.

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi there @nickelroof6727, what side of the island did you visit? We were too tired to get round to the eastern part, but we hear it is wonderful and better than where we were staying. That said, we would rate this island lower than Perhentian and Redang.

[@nirfan2020]

Was there last month, 3 days two nights hiking and camping on eastern side of the island, Juara Beach where I camped and cooked on a very beautiful public beach. Spent not more than MYR500.00 for the trip...😁👍

[@catinthemoonlight]

I wish they just spend some money and refurbish their rooms a bit. This doesn't look appealing at all even though it is good value. Having to deal with noise, cracks in wall and not always having hot water on holiday 😢😢😢

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi @catinthemoonlight, we agree with you. The accommodation was what we enjoyed the least of our stay at Tuna bay resort. It was ok, but when you have also stayed at Laguna resort in Redang for a similar price, you notice the difference in quality!

I see you've met the local mafia (the rhesus monkeys)
