Nice one day full of activities

Published on Dec, 2023

It was a day full of various nice things to do. My driver Aris was great. It is well worth the money but the coffe seller was a bit passive agressive.

Great one day KL tour

Published on Dec, 2023

I had this tour unplanned but really liked it. If you have a few days only in KL, this is a great starter tour. My driver Aris was wonderful. He went above and beyond.

Flying visit to Kuala Lumpur

Published on Nov, 2023

If you have a short period of time in Kuala Lumpur this is the trip to see the highlights, but be warned it is a long day. Our driver Aris was very informative and pleasant allowing us plenty of time at each location. The Batu Caves with the monkeys was great even if you do have to climb some steep steps. And to see fire flies in their natural habitat was amazing. The tour was very well organised and the communication was great

Fun, fun, fun

Published on Oct, 2023

Khairy, Our driver/guide was amazing. Very personable and entertained us throughout. He really made the trip and our day. Steps of Batucave, really beautiful. Silver haired monkey were fun.

Most wonderful experience of life!

Published on Sep, 2023
