We had a great tour. It was an excellent way to see KL and try food in different neighborhoods. We tried street-style food in Little India, Chinatown, and the Muslim Indian areas. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about KL and the different cuisines. Recommend for food enthusiasts up for trying very local foods in unpretentious locations.
