Tour description

Want to have an overview of Kuala Lumpur and visit some of the ‘must-go’ places in one morning? Then this is the tour for you! Join me in an intimate group of up to 5 pax in a tour that takes us from the older part of the city to the modern business district in about 3 hours.

We begin the tour from the historical Dataran Merdeka or Independence Square. From here, we shall explore the original downtown of Kuala Lumpur for the first 2 hours of the tour. You get to sample some local drinks and snacks, check out a few murals, and also pop into temples. You will learn how the city started out, and life on the streets back in the days when it was a vibrant trading and shopping hub. We then take the metro to our final destination, the iconic Petronas Twin Towers.

Some tips...
* Do have a hat or umbrella because it can be hot☀️🥵
* Ladies, wear something that covers your shoulders👚and knees👖for the temple visit
* Come with an appetite and lots of enthusiasm😉
