Traveler reviews
Excellent Half-Day in KL
This tour was exactly as detailed. Able to see Batu Caves, the National Mosque, and Thean Hou Temple all in one day with no hassles to get from point to point. My guide, Louis, was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable about the city and provided great background information not just about the sites but also some additional spots worth visiting during the rest of my time in the city.
Great little tour!
Nathan was great - very informative and entertaining. We had plenty of time to explore the stops and was always happy to leave earlier than planned if we wanted!
Great tour
Excellent tour with Luis. Punctual - on time. We never felt rushed and we felt very safe. We saw lots and was given lots of information. Would recommend to anyone.
Great Tour. Thank you
It was only a short stay for us in KL so we chose this tour to see as much as possible and it gave us a great insight in the cultures of the city and saw a lot of what KL had to offer. Louis was great. Very calm, relaxed and very informative. Thanks very much!
Fun half day tour
A very good tour. Sathesh was a great tour operator and picked us up from our hotel and dropped us back. The high light was the National Mosque-it was very beautiful and peaceful. Our guide had a lot of great knowledge of the area and was fun to hang out with.
