Fabulous trip! We hadn't realised we'd booked on a festival day and we're fearing the worst in terms of the news reports of traffic congestion and crowds, but our driver easily got us to near the entrance of the caves. The caves themselves were amazing, and lots of atmosphere with it being festival time. The pewter factory tour wasn't high on my to-do list but was actually really very interesting and well laid out, the batik workshop was less interactive but worth a look. All in all a great day and highly recommended. Our driver was excellent and lots of communication beforehand to confirm pick up time etc.

Rajah was very nice and very knowledgeable about the caves as well as Kuala Lumpur. He was funny and made conversation the entire time. He definitely has the right personality for the job. The car was air-conditioned and very clean. He was a very safe driver. I loved the Batu Caves, even if the monkeys were a bit scary at times. The Batik factory was the highlight if the tour. I purchased one kaftan but wished I had gotten more. I just wish the demonstration was longer. The pewter factory was interesting. The duty-free watch store could have been taken out if the tour, in my opinion.
Booked the group tour but due to vanishing tourists it was just me, so private tour in the end. I enjoyed it, but puffed out after caves climb. Pewter factory very interesting. No countryside though as caves on edge of city.
