We really enjoyed the day tour with our great driver Salman. You could freely decide whether to skip individual activities. Salman could tell us something about everything and was very informative. A highlight was definitely his restaurant recommendation Vine, where you could taste authentic Malaysian specialties at a good price at a buffet. Only locals, no tours far and wide. We can only recommend Salman to anyone who wants to explore Kuala Lumpur in one day!
It was a great experience, pretty imformative, private and with enough time to explore every site. The driver was friendly and polite
This trip is brilliant, and i highly recommend it. Our flight from the UK was cancelled and , they helped us out so much with this tour I cannot thank them enough for everything and making our time in KL so great . The communication from the organiser was excellent. Raj our driver for the day, was brilliant and did a great job again couldn’t be more helpful . All I can say is that if I could leave 10 stars I would . If you are in KL please use this tour everything and everyone is so great Thanks Matt
It was a wonderful expierence. Moving from the King's palace to the Temples, climbing the 272 steps into the Caves, Enjoying chilly chocolates of the chocolates factory and the twin Towers. Just Amazing.
Thank you for supporting us . really appreciate it . We will keep on give our best .
Raj was excellent. Very professional and went beyond what was expected to show us this beautiful city.
What a great trip! Shoutout to our driver Sadiq! I highly recommend him! Not only does he speak fluent english but he also has so much knowledge to share and stories to tell! He went above and beyond to provide us a great first impression of Kuala Lumpur! Thanks again for all the nice pictures and additional information! With him it was also possible to adjust our tour! We stayed longer at some places and skipped stops we were not interested! Try getting a rather early tour (7 or 8 o'clock) as it will get really hot in the afternoon! And yes the tour is definitely worth it! We saw so much more of Kuala Lumpur and learned about its history and facts than what we would have seen when we went by ourself!
Nothing fascinating in this tour since all places are not that attractive Tickets to Petronas towers are not available Batu caves are good to visit
Hi Sir, Thank you for your feedback. It is very surprising that you mentioned nothing is interesting in Kuala Lumpur as all our guests enjoyed this tour. For Petronas Tickets, you need to contact the tour operator in advance, in order for us to prepare from us.
Started at 7am is a plus, avoiding traffic jam and back to hotel for a nap at 3pm. Loved the Royal Selangor visit and presentation, Batik Fatory and Indian little town. I learned so many places, probably 16-20 new places. SADIQ was perfect and knowledgable.
Overall this trip is packed with 20+ sights of Kuala Lumpur. It's great to be able to see so many places briefly and maximize your time. However Viator sends these/partners up with a third party local tour agent, so its 50/50 if you get the right match up. We got paired up with a 'driver' to take us around, he spoke English and was kind. He did not introduce himself. We had to engage in asking. Unfortunately he was a horrible tour guide that only spoke when we asked questions...he did not tell us which places we were driving to in advance, a days outline/itinerary would have been nice. We had to reference back to viator's tour link to get the list of places. There was minimal conversation to nothing. Driver rarely pointed out places throughout the drive with no historical site information, no stories or important facts about these places. I don't recommend you just get a driver, then this tour is a waste of money!! We collected photos, zero guidance on having an actual tour guide. Make sure when booking you ask for what you want and keep in mind Viator is slow at replying and their answers are so generic. Look for a direct tour company, communicate via whatsapp. and enjoy your trip!! Kuala Lumpur is a beautiful place!!
Hi, thank for your feedback. Your claim saying this is a 3th party tours is a false claim. Please do not mislead others customers and you should have clarified this with us as tour operator. Also this tour already mention there is no licensed tour guide however our drivers will explain briefly on the places that you have brought it. Drivers has done the best for you.
Our driver was amazing. He took us round all the best sites and shared some history of each site with us. We didn't feel rushed and were able to take our time when we wanted and move on when we wanted. The driver was not a tour guide but did take the time to share with us interesting information at different sites. We were exhausted by the end of it but it was well worth the money! We booked a second tour with this company to visit the fireflies! The company itself is fab and communicate well and could not do enough for us! Thank you for our wonderful experience in Malaysia
Thank for your feedback and support. It was our pleasure to have you and your partner as our guest.
