Balik Kampung with The Ultimate Raya Santai-dilfitri Road trip Checklist!
28 Mar
A trip back home for Raya isn’t complete without checking off some classic balik kampung moments—how many can you tick off?
It’s that time of the year again—Raya is all about celebrating in good spirits, having santai time with family, and of course, going through the exciting balik kampung journey on the roads. Whether you are cruising down the highway, caught in the festive rush, or making an impromptu R&R stop, keep your eyes peeled and check off some of the most memorable moments that make the ride back home a truly Raya Santai-dilfitri adventure.
As you enjoy the journey, remember that a smooth ride starts with peace of mind. At Liberty General Insurance, we believe every balik kampung trip should be worry-free, so you can focus on creating cherishable & joyous memories with your loved ones this Raya season.
Check Off These Balik Kampung Moments.
Santai at an R&R with some satay or nasi lemak What’s a road trip balik kampung without a visit to an R&R? Some say it’s even tradition to fill the car with rest stop snacks and to refuel with some of your favourite foods.
Blasting Raya songs on the highway Putting Sudirman and Sharifah Aini in the Balik Kampung playlist is a must for setting the mood, with everyone in the car joining in a sing-along at full volume. Bonus points if you have already made a dedicated playlist for the journey!
Getting caught in the legendary festive traffic jam A true test of patience, but going through the Hari Raya traffic is also the perfect time to bond with your family! Stay santai and enjoy the ride with some road trip games like Eye Spy, or have a thorough catch-up session as you go through the congested roads together.
Calling mum to ask, “Nak beli apa lagi?” No matter how thorough the packing list is, there is always a last-minute request. It might range from something simple like raya cookies to extra baju raya, to an electric kettle or rice cooker. Whatever the request may be, how could you say no?
Spotting an overloaded car packed with suitcases, pillows, and snack bags On every Balik Kampung road trip, seeing that fully packed car can be amusing, but it just reminds us of the chaos and joy that Raya brings. And if you don’t spot a car like this on the way, look around—it may be your car that’s overpacked!
Posting a classic ‘On the Way’ Insta story No trip is complete without capturing the moment, especially with a scenic backdrop. Take a selfie with the gang as you embark on the highway, or take a santai video of the road from the side of your window to showcase that you’re on your journey—it’s all part of the balik kampung experience!
A More Santai Raya This Year
This Raya season is all about connection—whether it is through meaningful reunions, shared meals, or simply the joy of the journey. Liberty General Insurance is celebrating the spirit of togetherness with initiatives that support local communities, university students, and customers on their festive travels.
At Bazaar Ramadan Pantai Dalam, Liberty gave back to the community through the Liberty Belanja Iftar initiative by pre-purchasing meals and drinks from a participating stall and offering them to customers. Additional rewards were given to Liberty & Kurnia One Touch App registered users. This initiative not only supported local businesses but also fostered the spirit of sharing during Ramadan.
At Universiti Kuala Lumpur BMI, Liberty’s 365 Challenge brought a fun and interactive Raya experience, testing students’ reflexes to emphasize the importance of precision—whether in games or on the road. This initiative was about engaging students while reinforcing Liberty’s commitment to 365-day protection, promoting safety as a daily priority.

Whether the trip is long or short, every moment adds to the celebration. Stay safe on the road, cherish the journey, and make the most of this special time.
