Maran took us to several places and explained the history of those places including Malaysia history. He is very thorough and courteous and knowledgeable. We booked another tour with him. We highly recommend him as our tour guide and had a great time. Thank you, Maran.

Vicky was my guide/driver. He is very knowledgeable and answered my many questions regarding the culture, religions, and social systems of Malaysia. He was very helpful to get me to all the places on the itinerary and have plenty of time to see things. This is a great tour to see the highlights of Kuala Lumpur. I highly recommend this and I hope you get Vicky as your guide.

It was an incredible day. From the Batu Caves to visiting and touring the most important sites in town. The twin towers were also really interesting and great. I enjoyed every moment of this tour. I highly recommend this tour as a must for the person who’s coming for the first time to the city.

We did a main sights tour of Kuala Lumpur with Maran and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was very informative and knowledgeable, and did a great job gauging traffic so we arrived at the Petronas Towers on time without ever feeling rushed. He found a fantastic spot for lunch with proper, typical Malaysian cuisine, and was very attentive throughout the day. He was also happy to adjust the itinerary to suit our pace and interests, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and personal.

We had a fantastic full day tour with Nantha. He picked us up at the Port Klang Cruise terminal when our ship arrived. He had waters ready for us in the car and was very flexible with our itinerary. He made some suggestions and was willing to modify them based on our preferences. He had a great suggestion to go to the top of the KL tower in the morning and see the sights of KL, and then hit the Batu Caves on the way back when all the cruise buses had already completed the Batu caves in the morning and were spending time in Kuala Lumpur in the afternoon. This worked out great as the Batu caves were not very crowded when we went in the afternoon. We got to see all the sites, including the Central market Chinatown, the KL Tower, and the River of Life and Nantha gave us a wealth of information and history along the way. In addition, Nantha knew the perfect spot to take a family picture in front of the Petronas Towers! He was incredibly knowledgeable and his English was outstanding!!! Thank you for a great tour and a wonderful first visit to KL. We will surely be back!

Not really the experience I was expecting from the tour’s description on Viator. The “tour guide,” though courteous, was really just a private driver who dropped me off at each stop and told how long I had to look around. Gave no informational guide unless I asked. He actually never left the car at all. I asked if we could stop for lunch somewhere and he said no. The 8 hr tour took 5 hours. Felt a bit rushed. A big disappointing, to say the least. Not to mention he asked me to complete a review before getting out of the car during hotel drop off on the hotel’s front drive. A bit uncomfortable.

Nantha, our wonderful driver and tour guide picked us up from Port Klang Cruise Terminal and safely got us back to our ship on time. We appreciated his knowledge about Malaysia and its cultural diversity. Nantha made us feel at ease before climbing up the many stairs walking past the macaque monkeys at the Batu Caves. We saw the River of Life. Nantha suggested Malay food that we ate at the Central Market and went shopping. Took photos at the Thean Hou Chinese Temple with the Chinese Zodiac Sign figures and up to the 86th floor of the Petronas Twin Towers. Nantha went out of his way buying Acar (mixed pickles), pandan flavouring, and Ros Sirup and took us to a Batik Material Shop, my interests. Special memories of my Malaysian Chinese parents. Thank you Nantha for a fantastic day! Cerlin and Allan Canada
