You slide into a padded van as the city recedes: highways hum, oil-palm rows drift past like green shutters, and the driver—your local guide—points out a roadside kopitiam where lunch waits. The rhythm of the road sets the day: three hours to Segamat for a village-style meal, two more toward the forested river gorge at Sungai Pandan Waterfall, then the final hour down to Kuantan or Cherating.
