Itinerary
Facing the scenic Putrajaya Lake, the Putra Mosque is arguably Putrajaya's most distinctive landmark and one of the most modern mosques in the world. A showcase of how mosque designs have evolved in Malaysia, Putra Mosque's Islamic-architecture artistically blends traditional designs, local craftsmanship and the use of indigenous materials. The mosque is modeled after Persian Islamic architecture of the Safavid period with elements derived from other Muslim cultures. Incorporating Malaysian, Persian and Arab-Islamic architectural designs, the main entrance to the mosque is fashioned in the likeness of public building gates in Muslim Persia.
Jonker Street – the center street of Chinatown that has clothing and crafts outlets as well as restaurants. The best part of Jonker Street is the night market on Fridays and Saturdays that sells everything from tasty treats to cheap keepsakes.
Christ Church built by the Dutch when they took possession of Malacca from the Portuguese, it's one of Malacca’s most defining structures. Situated along Jalan Gereja (also known as Church Street) it is an instantly recognizable brick-red building with a huge white cross at the top. Sitting opposite the Stadhuys, Christ Church was built in 1753 to celebrate a century of Dutch occupation. The interior of the cathedral has 20-year-old handmade pews, decorative fanlights and plaques that honor Dutch soldiers and locals.
The ruins of St. Paul’s Church are at the summit of St. Paul's Hill. Built on the site of the last Malaccan sultan’s Istana (palace), it was constructed by Portuguese fidalgo (nobleman) captain, Duarte Coelho, in gratitude to the Virgin Mary for saving his life during a storm at sea. Roofless and covered in ferns, it was originally called the Nossa Senhora da Annunciada (Our Lady of the Annunciation). Though it has been in ruins for more than 150 years, it is a beautiful, breezy sanctuary (reached after a steep flight of stairs) set near the remains of A’ Famosa Fort.
Walking along Melaka River is a great way to see the sights of Melaka at a leisurely pace, in comfort and without breaking the bank. The Melaka River is where the town began and it has played a key role in Melaka's colorful history.
The Malacca Straits Mosque is one of the most beautiful mosques in Malaysia. It is also known as Masjid Selat Melaka as it is located on the busiest and longest straits. It is built on a man-made island, Pulau Melaka. When the tide is high, the mosque looks like it is floating in the ocean. The opening ceremony was done by Yang di-Pertuan Agong Syed Sirajuddin Syed Putra Jamalullail on 24 November 2006. The driveway scenery was breathtaking as you get to see the full coast of Malacca city.
Visit the famous Cheng Hoon Teng Temple, take some great photos and learn about the significance of the temple.

I had such a great holiday thanks to Mugilan. He was a wonderful guide who made so much effort to take good pictures in such a hot weather. I got so many good pics that I bombarded my Instagram story instantly with pics taken in Melaka. He was also very knowledgeable on KL culture and history, all the info he told me were very interesting and hleped me understand Malaysian culture. It was a long ride to Melaka, so we started the tour earlier than planned, and that was the best choice👌 I got to go to Putrajaya Mosque first and then to Melaka. Did not experience that much traffic jam when going there. However, there was huge traffic jam when returning to KL. Mugilan let me turn on the songs I preferred while driving, so it was not a boring ride. Talking and listening to the music.. it was such a comfortable ride back. I strongly recommend you to ask for Mugilan if you don't want to miss the culture and also great pics in Melaka.

It’s great to hear that you enjoyed learning about Kuala Lumpur’s culture and history, and that the adjusted schedule helped you make the most of your day with visits to Putrajaya and Melaka. We’re also glad that even the long journey felt comfortable and enjoyable with music and good conversation along the way. Your recommendation truly means a lot to us, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to Mugilan. We hope to welcome you again for another unforgettable adventure soon! 😊

We went on this tour today as a family of three and really enjoyed our time exploring Malacca. Janice was a great guide who shared lots of interesting cultural information at just the right moments, patiently answered all of our questions, and gave us some useful suggestions on places to visit while staying in Putrajaya. We would definitely recommend this tour—just don’t forget to wear really comfortable shoes, as there’s a lot of walking!

Would highly recommend ForeverVacation and the Malacca Instagram Tour. We took the private tour for just the two of us as it provide a more intimate experience. Our driver and guide, Chen, was fantastic, very polite, attentive, and informative, as well as a safe driver. Our air-conditioned car was clean, tidy, modern and very comfortable for the journey. All-in-all a great day. Thanks Chen and the ForeverVacation team.

My second day with the lovely Janice! Malacca is beautiful, and filled with history and for sure worth a visit , but,.. it’s a long drive from KL where I booked my trip from. While I dozed off in the car, I almost felt bad for Janice who had to drive that whole way ,.. but once again and she took the most beautiful pictures and explained me about the different sites we were visiting. Even though it was very hot walking around! I definitely recommend Malacca but keep in mind the drive back and forth is long. But Janice Thank You! 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re so happy to hear that your second day with Janice was just as wonderful as the first. 💕 She’ll be thrilled to know you appreciated her storytelling, photography skills, and positive energy—especially on such a long and sunny day in Malacca! You're absolutely right—Malacca is a beautiful and historic gem, but it does come with a longer drive from KL. We really appreciate you mentioning that for future travelers, and we're glad the journey was still worth it in the end. Thank you again for your kind words and for choosing ForeverVacation. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon—maybe one a little closer to the city next time! 😊
Our Melaka Instagram Tour was a highlight for our stay in Kuala Lumpur. It was both an architecturally and culturally educational experience of the early Malaysian heritage. We would highly recommend Janice, our personal tour guide, who was exceptional due to her knowledge, humour, photographical skills and kindness which added to our overall time in Kuala Lumpur. They may cost a little more than other tour companies, however, their attention to detail and the services provided, you will understand why. ForeverVaction Team and Janice - Thank you and hope to see you on our return in the future. 😁

Her knowledge, humor, photography skills, and kindness truly make her exceptional, and we’re so glad she made your time with us extra special. We’re also grateful for your kind words about the level of service and attention to detail — it really means a lot to our whole team. We would be honored to welcome you back on your next adventure!
