Great introduction to KL for newcomers
We booked very last minute at night and were able to take part in the tour the very next morning. Our driver and guide Rajan was very nice and was able to provide us with many interesting facts about Kuala Lumpur. The tour was super and absolutely recommended for newcomers. We finished up at the KL Tower and were happy to see all the sights from up high that we had visited before.

That was a very bad impression, for which the first driver Rayhan Raj Naidu can not help, the name of the second drive
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.
Operator response
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.

Poor communication
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
