What is a Monitor Tour?

• Accommodation for 5 Nights

• Public Transportation Fee, and 

• Overseas Travel Insurance

All other expenses such as F&B, mobile roaming, activity and attraction admission fees, shopping, etc. shall be borne by the participants.

What do selected participants need to do for the Monitor Tours?

1) Each Monitor Tour requires two to travel, the selected participant and a friend or family member.

2) Participants should plan an itinerary tailored to their preferences by themselves. Throughout the process, feedback and potential adjustments from JNTO Kuala Lumpur office should be expected to ensure an enjoyable experience.

3) Participants are responsible for making and managing all travel arrangements, with the exception of flight and travel insurance arrangements, which will be handled by the project secretariat, Clozette Malaysia Sdn. Bhd.

4) Participants are required to take photos/videos of themselves while planning and enjoying the tour. These photos/videos should be shared on participants’ social media accounts as well as JNTO’s platforms, and the original files should be submitted to JNTO after the tour. JNTO reserves the right to feature, edit, and reassemble the submitted photos and video footage, including those that feature participants, for promotional, marketing, and other purposes as deemed necessary.
