A great half day city tour
We had a great half day city tour in KL. Our excellent driver and guide for the morning was Joe. We visited all the locations on the itinerary and found the tour extremely interesting and enjoyable.

Terrific tour
Brilliant day with our guide, very informative, respectful and answered all our questions. It was lovely having a guide who was so knowledgeable about KL and Malaysia, thank you so much, Nerina & Rob ❤️

Varied and interesting
Helmi was our knowledgeable guide, he would point out significant buildings as we drove around, talk about the sights and areas. At the various stops he would then give us time to walk around and explore for ourselves - a good blend. Would recommend this tour to see a good variety of things in KL.

Good and comfortable sightseeing
With the private tour, we had an option to alter the timings and stay as long as we wished, it was convenient and smooth. Worth booking if you like to be at your own pace and enjoy the journey

Well worth it ....
Booked this tour without thinking as we'd done the Night Tour taking in the various sights and this tour was more or less the same on realising we asked Rajan if it was possible to change up a few sights which he did we were very grateful. It was a great tour we were impressed by his knowledge of the history of the various sights. We didn't feel rushed he just let us go at our own pace throughout. Would highly recommend and hope to do other tours with him soon!
