OohHaa! Salam! I’m Lisa, a passionate Kuala Lumpur local who believes every alley has a story, and every old building has a soul. I love taking curious travellers off the typical tourist path to discover KL’s hidden gems, street art, and forgotten prime crimes stories. My guiding style is friendly, engaging, and storytelling-focused. If you enjoy urban exploration, photography, and true stories that bring places to life, you’ll feel right at home on my tours! Small Group. Big Heart. ❤️ I believe in quality over quantity. That’s why my tours are limited to just 1–10 adults. Small enough for everyone to feel connected, ask questions, and get an intimate glimpse into the daily lives and traditions! 🚩Tour 1: When you’re ready to slow down from the city, you can also join my Kampung Baru Village Culture & Food Tour, where you’ll meet locals, visit traditional Malay wooden houses, and taste foods while learning about KL’s living heritage. Join my 2nd tour if you are ready for more mysteries and adventures! 🚩Tour 2: What’s exciting about this heritage & mysteries tour: Most tours show you buildings. This one shows you the stories behind them. You’ll explore hidden temples, colourful graffiti alleys, and streets where shocking crimes, gangster feuds, and spiritual legends unfolded. From vibrant street art capturing the city’s struggles and humour to untold scandals and temple legends, this tour connects you to KL’s layered soul, beyond what guidebooks show. It’s not just sightseeing. it’s feeling KL’s heartbeat while you walk. You’ll leave with beautiful photos, fascinating stories, and a deeper understanding of Kuala Lumpur’s past and present. ✅ A Few Friendly Reminders: 1️⃣ If you wish to cancel, please let us know at least 3 hours in advance. Our guide travels a long way to meet you, and early notice is greatly appreciated. 2️⃣ In case of heavy rain, we may postpone the start time by 30 minutes to 1 hour for your comfort and safety. Let’s make your time in Kuala Lumpur unforgettable!
