My son and I had an amazing day with Din! After so long inside because of the lockdown, it was wonderful to get outside and explore! This is our third adventure with Din. He always takes very good care of us. He is knowledgeable and shares personal stories along the way. We would not have been able to do this on our own. He has the entire trip carefully timed and planned. Everything we saw and did this day was a unique and enjoyable experience. The only downside was that we did not get to enjoy the Firefly Park as they were closed. Highly recommend this experience and this host!!

We drove through kampung road before arriving at MHC. But after driving out in the evening, the kampung route wasnt scary no more. We stayed two nights in MIn House Camp. four to a room. Good aircond. Very small toilet and bathroom but adequate hot water shower albeit at low pressure. Parking is not an issue unless there is a big group here for meeting. Yes, they have a small conference room!! We went canoeing in the evening. We had char kueh teow timur-style for dinner with the local specialty teh limau madu. The next morning we had nasi kerabu kambing/daging berasap for breakfast. The dinner and breakfast outlets were just outside the kampung on the main road.. Kak Yah shared with us on composting and aquaponics. We collected lokan or clams in the evening when it was raining. It was an experience wading in the knee-deep mud and using bare hands to feel for the clam shells. After dinner we walked to a nearby bridge to look at fireflies. The fireflies here are of the synchronous kind. The following morning before departure, we had a look at stingless beehouses and sip a small sample of pure honey from the egg-shaped pots. This is a must thing-to-do if one travel to kota bharu. Thank you Kak Yah and family.

Thank you to Din and all of the people at Gahara for a truly amazing experience! Not only did my son and I get to make traditional batik, but we also got to see many museums, experience local food (which is so delicious and can only be had in Kelantan!), and explored local art. Having Din with us was game-changing as he not only served as a translator, but an amazing guide and friend. If we had not been there with him, we would have missed out on so much of the experience. Staying in the former family home of the founder of Gahara was amazing. We were surrounded by beautiful textiles and the energy of this thriving textile house. It was fun to visit other batik houses here, and we even met a very old weaver, working her loom, making a beautiful songket. This was a much needed respite from lockdown in KL, and since I am a textile lover, it was the perfect antidote! AND....I ate the best food here in Kelantan that I have had in Malaysia, thanks to Din and his friends. Highly recommend this tour. It is a life-changer!
