It was a great experience, Mr Rajan our guide explained everything with understandable language. He kept us engaged explaining not only abt the place we visited. He told about the KL history and other stuffs. Overall got to know about KL a lot and also Malayasia
With the first driver we saw the Hutu caves and on the way to the Royal Palace the air conditioning failed and the car could only drive to the Royal Palace. The driver organized replacements, who were also very quickly on site. The second driver went with us to the Chinese temple first, then the driver wanted to go with us, Mike Hüttenrauch and I to the Petronas Towers. But there was no more stopping. The driver explained to us that as a result of the Asia Conference 2025, it was not possible to approach all further program points due to excessive traffic volume (congestion). On another privately run tour, it turned out that the statement of our driver is the truth. The so-called road closures took place minutes wisely.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience. We truly appreciate your detailed feedback, and we’re very sorry that your tour did not run as smoothly as it should have. We are glad the first driver, Rayhan Raj Naidu, was able to assist promptly and arrange a quick replacement when the air conditioning issue occurred. However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused during the second part of your tour. We are currently reviewing this situation with the second driver, as the explanation given to you regarding traffic and road closures during the Asia Conference 2025 does not reflect the level of accuracy and professionalism we expect from our team. Your feedback is extremely valuable and helps us ensure that such misunderstandings do not happen again. We hope you will consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide you with a much better and smoother experience. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.
Great morning touring KL highlights. Our guide Rajan was informative, friendly and knowledgeable to the queries and went out of his way to assist.
I had booked this tour on March 2025 and was staying in Putrajaya . I wasn’t aware that the bus could not pick me up at the hotel . I decided to catch an uber communicating that I’ll meet the tour in KL but I never got the chance to get on this tour so I requested a refund it was approved but up to now I had never got my refund or even a credit for it MC
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we're very sorry to hear about your experience. We understand how frustrating it must have been to miss the tour and not receive the refund or credit you were expecting. Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused. We’d like to look into this matter further and help resolve it as quickly as possible. Kindly reach out to us directly with your booking details so we can investigate the status of your refund and ensure it’s properly processed. Your feedback is important to us, and we appreciate the opportunity to make things right.
Very good driver, speak english well, pick up on time. Recommended tour agency. Visit many places like a King residence, National Mosquee AND More.
I was expecting a small group with explanations , the group was just us 2 friends, with little history . The driver was courteous and safe. Did not know that tickets to twin towers had to b booked several days in ad
Dear Dawn, Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that the experience didn’t fully meet your expectations. We aim to provide clear details about our tours, including group size and ticket requirements, and we apologize if this wasn’t communicated effectively. It’s unfortunate that the Twin Towers tickets were not available, as we understand how important that aspect was for your trip. We’re glad to hear that your driver was courteous and safe, but we’ll review the tour to ensure that more historical context and clarity about ticket bookings are provided in the future. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better next time. Safe travels!
The tour was really interesting. A spécial mention for Batu cave. Our guide, besrial, was very kind and welcoming. He really wanted to show us the best places. It was a really good time ans it was a pleasure to be guided by Besrial.
Great host, knowledgeable, flexible. Would recommend to anyone visiting KL, and also good for family or private event.
Here you get a very nice city tour for small money. Highly recommended if you have little time and want to see a lot! Can we recommend it to others!
I just had my day tour in Kuala Lumpur this morning... Driver/guide was on time picking me up at my hotel. I was alone during the tour but never bored, the driver was well knowledgeable and gives me more information of how Malaysia came to be, unfortunately it was raining hard and we can't get off on some of the open tourists spots but info was given in every place we passedby. Definitely will recommend this tour to those who are first timers and willing to learn the past and present of Malaysia... Two thumbs up to my very patient guide, and thank you for a wonderful day👍👍😊😀
