Among the first things you will notice upon arriving in Malacca, are the many one-way roads when going into and around the Malacca town. Tourists and outsiders might find it mind-boggling to rummage their way around Malacca and get to their near-yet-so-far destination.
One wrong turn and you might find yourself in Semabok, a town near to Bandar Hilir, the city centre of Malacca. But if you are here for leisure, you might even find the 'tour' around town a great way to see new places in Malacca, and even enjoy it ...:-)
So if you are planning to come to Malacca, so get your maps ready and ask the hotel reception for detailed directions to the places you are planning to go. Otherwise you might end up paying more for the cabs which mostly do not use meters. Surprisingly, non-metered taxis were reported to be more expensive rather than metered!
So gear up, be prepared and enjoy Malacca in its rustic and beautiful way, as it has always been...:-)
