Lovely tour to experience KL highlights if you’re short in time. Our guide Jag was so friendly and looked after us well!
A perfect experience to see the highlights of KL in a day. I landed a 5:50am, managed to check into my hotel and shower then was collected by Ayyanar at 9am to start my tour at the Batu Caves. Best way to start this day as there are over 300 steps to climb to see everything inside. Got done in the am while the legs were fresh and heat hadn’t reached its peak yet. Saw the king’s palace, the national war memorial, national mosque, Chinatown, a Buddhist temple, Independence Square. (Might be missing a sight or two). But the day ended with the Petronas Towers skybridge and observation deck. Was back at my hotel by just after three. I feel completely satisfied feeling I got to see an array of KL’s historical & cultural sites as I am not had the one full day & overnight before flying out again. What made this full day guide tour so special was my driver & guide, Ayyanar. He was the absolute best. First of all he reached out to me the day before my arrival and asked if I would be able to start the tour at 9am instead of the scheduled 10am I had made. Ayyanar suggested this because it was a Sunday and it was going to be extremely busy so the earlier the better. My flight arrived on time so I was able to start at 9am an hour early. Thank you Ayyanar for the suggestion - it means I finished an hour earlier so I could get back for a nap. Ayyanar was very insightful on all his explanations of all the sights. But the very best part about my driver and guide, Ayyanar, was his cheerful & delightful disposition. He was so genuinely happy, positive and upbeat, it was contagious - life was beautiful during my guided tour. So thank you Ayyanar, you blessed me with your presence. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who only has a day in KL and you need the “Cliffs Notes” version of the city sites. Cross your fingers that you receive Ayyanar as your driver/guide

We had a very good experience with Ben, The tour was fun, we got to know more of Malaysia diverse culture. We highly recommend this tour.
Mr Yuva was a very good tour guide. He picked us up as arranged, made the visits desired and was very congenial and helpful. We would highly recommend Mr Yuva
Our guide and driver Ayyanar was waiting for us on time right at the exit of the terminal. Our ride was a very comfortable SUV with clean windows and “just right” air con. First stop was Batu Caves… on the eve of a very special day… We were there at 8:30AM and already the place was packed… over a million people go to the temple to pay respect during Thaipusam festival. Ayyanar tried everything he could but ultimately we could not find parking and go inside the temple but we were able to see the outside and the statue of Lord Murugan. We were able to see multiple sites: Merdeka Square, National Mosque, Central Market, Dataran Merdeka, Istana Negara and finally, the Petronus Towers. Ayyanar had scheduled things perfectly and accounted for traffic, and we had ample time to get to the entrance (there was construction and a few detours), have a quick bite, and then get into the towers… it was a great treat and we enjoyed the architecture and marvel of engineering. On our way down, before meeting our guide, we walked inside the KLCC shopping Mall and headed towards the KLCC park: on the other side of Symphony Lake, there is a small walking bridge beside a few whale + dolphins water features that provide a picture - perfect point to catch the Towers in all their glory ! This was an excellent private tour for a cruise ship port day and Ayyanar was a tremendous and attentive tour guide.
Yuvanesh took us round for the whole day, he was interesting and made it very easy for us too see everything we wanted. He was full of information and we enjoyed his tour. Highly recommend him.
Was great, our guide was very knowledgeable & made the tour great & very interesting. Really enjoyed it & highly recommend
We had an excellent private tour in Kuala Lumpur! Our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and shared a lot of interesting information about the city and culture. He was also punctual and made sure everything went smoothly throughout the tour. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Kuala Lumpur!
Ayyanar was a great guide for our private tour around the city. He was so informative and enthusiastic. He answered our questions and made sure we were safe and knew what to expect at each spot. The caves and towers were fun and seeing all the highlights all in one day was a great way to spend a day. Thanks so much!
