I came back to Kuala Lumpur in 8 hours and 30 minutes, even though the estimated travel time was 12 hours. It is certainly 8 hours and 45 minutes when the detailed schedule is added up, For some reason, the Mini Malaysia & ASEAN Cultural Park along the way and the Studdyce Museum of History and Ethnology have been cancelled. I told them along the way that this was not what I planned, but they didn't take it in, and the company asked me to write good things in the excuses and word of mouth. If you would like to make a reservation, please note that I told you that I would like you to at least correct the 12-hour song, but it is still 12 hours a year later.

Nantha has given us a lot of information about Malacca and along the way also about Malaysia and its inhabitants, customs, religions etc. It was a very fascinating day with many impressions and Nantha guided us very well. In addition, he is very nice to deal with, has humor and is present at the agreed time and speaks very good English. In short: highly recommended!

This was the second tour we had with Nantha as we loved the first one so much!! The 2hour car drive goes by easily with Nantha’s good mood and historical information (also with time for sleeping as we left early). In Malacca the weather was super hot and Nantha made it possible to walk around with his easygoing trip with lots of important details such as pauses for refreshing drinks and letting the A/C from the car on. He had special attention regarding the Portuguese details in Malacca because of our nationality. We could not reccommend more this trip and Nantha!

My family visited Malacca a few days ago, and with the help of Mr. Nantha, made this day trip very memorable. It started with a clear communication, and a punctual tour operator who was already waiting for us at the hotel lobby. This is a big plus! The drive in itself was an educational experience with Mr. Nantha explaining a little history of Kuala Lumpur, from its time with the Dutch, Portuguese, British, and Japanese. Of course, he did get into Malacca's history once we got closer to the city. Once in Malacca, Mr. Nantha guided us to its historical sights, again, explaining some of its history. He was very patient, knowledgeable, and caring. His love for his profession and his love for Malaysia was truly evident in the tour. The tour itself allowed us to explore on our own, and with a 12-year-old, was very important and necessary. The city was beautiful. And the tour was enough as an initial layer of information. I'm sure that if you're a historical buff, you can conduct your own research about Malacca. I encourage you do your own research. But I would definitely recommend Mr. Nantha for his expertise and his services. (Family of 3 from Long Beach. CA, USA)
