When breakfast was over, some of our group members decided to disembark and go into Port Klang to do some Malaysia shopping and try the Malaysian food whereas another group wished to stay on board to rest.
Some of the shore excursions that you could book on the holiday cruise ship include:-
* Chinatown:- Visit Petaling Street, KL Chinatown, which is endowed with a distinct character of its own.
* Asian Melting Pot:- Visit Independence Square, KL Tower, Then Hou Temple and Suria KLCC, Malaysia's premier shopping destination located in Kuala Lumpur's prestigious commercial address and nestled between the Petronas Twin Towers
* Shopping at Mid Valley Megamall:- find the zest of today's fashion mouth-watering flavours of culinary galore, indulgence of pampering services alongside the convenience of everyday shopping.
* Shopping at 1 Utama:- this multi-award winning centre, one of Malaysia's top shopping destinations, has achieved many industry firsts such as a Sky Mall, tropical Rainforest within a shopping centre and the first home to host many international brands entering Malaysia
Holiday Travel Tips:-
However, if you prefer to go on your own, it is easy to catch a taxi from the port and you can save some dollars especially if you are in a small group as each taxi can take a maximum of 4 passengers. A return trip to Aeon Bukit Tinggi costs RM90 (USD29.11) per taxi versus SGD30 (USD22.70) per person if you book direct with Star Cruise.

Lots of taxis available
Besides going to the above places, you can also make a trip to AA Pharmacy in Sri Petaling (which we did) if you wish to purchase pharmaceutical products at very reasonable prices or get some professional advice as to which health supplements you should be taking.
We booked a taxi to take us to AA Pharmacy in Sri Petaling, after which to Aeon Bukit Tinggi for RM240 (USD77.60).
The journey to AA Pharmacy took approximately 40 minutes from Port Klang. After picking up our purchases at AA Pharmacy, we were on our way to Aeon Bukit Tinggi where we did some more shopping at the various specialty outlets as well as the department store cum supermarket Jusco.

At the same time, we had lunch at Penang Nonya which had some pretty great tasting spicy assam laksa (sour and spicy fish based noodle soup) and prawn noodles. We tried the chendol (traditional sweet dessert made from green pea flour shaped like worms) which we felt would have tasted better with a dash more gula melaka (palm sugar).

Making our way back to our holiday cruise ship at Port Klang West End, we took a rest before making our way to Mediterranean Buffet Restaurant for dinner. Again, as with the buffet on board SuperStar Virgo, there was quite a variety of dishes to choose from including the Indian vegetarian food.

After dinner, we settled Mother and part of the group in the Royale Club, a members only casino, on Deck 8 whereas the other members of the group proceeded to the casino on Deck 7 to while away the night.
Once again, another day had passed as we enjoyed each other’s company on board the SuperStar Virgo holiday cruise ship.
