Batu Caves is a limestone hill that has a series of caves and cave temples in Gombak, Selangor. The limestone forming Batu Caves is said to be around 400 million years old. Some of the cave entrances were used as shelters by the indigenous Temuan people (a tribe of Orang Asli). The cave is one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside India, and is dedicated to Lord Murugan. It is the focal point of the Hindu festival of Thaipusam in Malaysia. Batu Caves in short also referred as 10th Caves or Hill for Lord Muruga as there are six important holy shrines in India and four more in Malaysia. The three others in Malaysia are Kallumalai Temple in Ipoh, Tanneermalai Temple in Penang and Sannasimalai Temple in Malacca. Note: Keeping your eyes open to be aware of the monkeys. Don’t feed them! Hold cameras close and use a neck strap if you have one. Please don’t carry any plastic bags, monkeys will aggressive on this.

We will bring you to Batik Chong for a guided tour on how Batik is made. Take this opportunity to bring back a piece of Malaysia Hand-Made Batik as a souvenir.

Your next stop is Selayang Hot Spring, where you can soak your tired feet in the healing mineral waters. According to the locals, this place has been in existence for the past four decades and is a popular spot among the locals. They believed that this spring water is able to cure them of skin diseases and other ailments. Hence it is not surprising that you see many elderly and young people coming here to take bath especially during the weekends.
The Gombak District is an administrative district located in the state of Selangor. Before 1974, Gombak was a town before it became a district. Gombak was home to the settlements of the first Minangkabau immigrants in the 1800s and was established soon after. Old mosques in the Gombak area such as the Masjid Lama Batu 6 Gombak are still standing to this day.

Great service, very friendly driver. Ontime, goid communication and respectful. Unfortunately the springs are being renovated, but the guide added another half hour in to the caves. Waterfall- 1 hours 30 minutes Batu caves - 1 hour 30mins, Batik - 30 minutes Lunch - 1 hour Pewter factory- 1 hour Travelling time 1 hour. You need walking shoes for the waterfall, steps lead up to 4th level, then difficult ttrack. Wont get much higher in the tine, so stay there. Also arrive in swimwear if you intend to swim.

Thank you as well for sharing helpful tips about the itinerary, especially regarding the waterfall and preparation—this will certainly benefit future travelers.

Tour was nice except for pulling up to the hot springs (which we were REALLY looking forward to) and seeing that it was shut down. Was informed by viator that there would be NO consideration for partial refund for not being able to experience that portion of our trip. Very disappointed in that, so buyer beware. Other than that, trip was nice.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour overall and found the trip pleasant. However, we sincerely apologise for the disappointment caused by the closure of the Hot Springs. We understand how much you were looking forward to this part of the itinerary. Please be assured that the operation of these sites is entirely under the management of the local authorities. If a location is closed, it is strictly due to their own internal rules and, most importantly, for visitor safety, which is always the top priority. Because these closures are outside of our control and determined by the site management, we are unfortunately unable to offer partial refunds for those specific portions of the trip. We appreciate your understanding regarding these safety protocols. We value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you on another one of our tours in the future. Best regards,
A lovely day prompt pickup from hotel didn't feel rushed plenty of time A lovely lunch to finish Thank you

It was our pleasure to host you, and we truly appreciate your kind words. We hope to welcome you again on another tour soon! Thanks & Regards ,,,,
There were elements about this tour that were very good and some not. First of all we were told on booking that we would need to go to a meeting point but infact our driver picked us up outside our hotel (he was early and we were in the process of getting a taxi). Our driver was helpful and polite. We were only ones in the car. The first stop was a natural hotspring which was very interesting and very laid back with mostly locals enjoying the water and doing their washing. The visit felt about the right amount of time. The waterfalls were also lovely and well worth the walk to them, but as our stay was only about 30 mins we didn't bother going into the water only for it to be a short time and then have to get dried and dressed again. Perhaps if it was later in the day we would have been hotter and felt more like a dip! The Batu Caves part of the visit was a big disappointment as the stop was only for 20 minutes. This meant you only had time to look at the outside with no time to go in if you wished. We felt a bit cheated that we weren't able to walk up the steps or go in. We did however enjoy interacting with the monkeys wandering around and feeding them our peanuts which they finished off for us. We then had quite a long stay at pewter factory which whilst interesting wasn't what we signed up for. I felt this was an opportunity for you to be sold something and would much rather have spent more time at Batu caves. The lunch was at a small local cafe which didn't impress much on the way in but the food was served on banana leaves, felt very authentic and was delicious, so we left impressed. So all in all not a bad day but there were some disappointments.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed several aspects of the tour, including the natural hot springs, waterfalls, and the authentic local lunch experience. It's great to know that your driver was punctual, polite, and helpful throughout the journey. We sincerely appreciate your honesty regarding the timing at Batu Caves. We understand how important it is to have enough time to fully explore such an iconic site, and we will take your feedback into account as we look at ways to improve our itinerary. Regarding the pewter factory visit, we regret that it wasn’t what you expected, and we will reassess this stop to ensure it aligns better with our guests' interests. Your insights are truly valuable, and we’re glad that overall, you had an enjoyable day. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you on another tour in the future, where we can provide an even better experience!
The tour guide was very good and drove us around safely and was helpful when asked to stop to access a shop. The lunch was in a cafe type establishment but the food was excellent and served very authentically. My only complaint is that we were most interested in the Batu caves but the stop is very short (20 minutes) and meant we had no opportunity to enter any of the caves or climb up to the highest one and at least take in the view. We would like this stop to have been at least 1 hour and we would happily have foregone the pewter factory and Batic stops although they were interesting. Also the waterfall stop was 30 mins which put us off taking a swim as the time it would take to get dry afterwards wasn’t worth it for the time you would get to swim. We had a driver to ourselves which was nice but didn’t feel able to negotiate times of stops as there was a set schedule .
Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad to hear that you had a safe and enjoyable experience with your guide and that you appreciated the authentic lunch. We understand your concerns about the timing at Batu Caves and the waterfall stop—your input is invaluable in helping us improve our itineraries. We’ll definitely take this into consideration for future tours to allow for more flexibility. We appreciate your honesty and hope to welcome you on another trip where we can better meet your expectations! 😊🙏
Lovely day with Roy, seen the hot springs, waterfall and the Batu cave. Great tour guide, full on day away with some delicious food, thanks Roy.
We are glad to hear you had a great experience with us on this tour from Kuala Lumpur. Your feedback could help others decide! Thank you for the recommendation!
The driver Hari was very helpful and very nice. The tour required physical stamina with lots of steps to the waterfalls so would be best to state that in the advert.

Please feel free to share more details or reach out to us directly. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we hope to have the opportunity to make things right."

Great day trip! Was only in KL for a few days but this tour was great way to see the rainforest, waterfalls and Batu Caves. Got plenty of time at each spot, small tour and comfy bus. Great value for money, as included entrance fees everywhere and a nice lunch.
