The Pines has a private jetty where
one can jump on the river cruise, as well
as offering bicycle rentals to the guests. I
opted for the river cruise as I was too full
to cycle anywhere. I managed to waddle
my way onto the boat and settled back
for the 45 minute trip. This is a great way

location, offering care, comfort and
convenience. We are here to serve and
to provide a service like no other,” said

a restaurant and cafe at the hotel, and the
buffet breakfast was served at the Oak
foodie heaven and this street, which is
Malacca’s Chinatown, is the place to go
for great food and bargains on clothes
and antiques. After stuffing my face
with the famous chicken rice balls, I
wandered around aimlessly, looking at
all the goods on display and soaking up
the atmosphere.
