The shop is easy to find. The staff and instructor were very friendly and helpful. This was my first time learning pottery, and the process was so much fun. Especially that moment when you see the shape of your bowl or cup forming - it feels like watching your newborn baby take shape. LOL.
I’ll definitely come back again. The only thing is the class cost is a bit on the high side 😂

staffs were friendly, esp they did brief to us on how to tuft before we start. store was clean and organised as equipments are ready before we were even there. They also provided free phone tripods to use. Love everything about tufting.

Overall, it was a great experience bringing my family there. We originally booked for 1 May, but when we arrived, the shop was closed due to the public holiday. Apparently, there was a technical glitch in the booking system.
That said, the Klook team was very efficient and responsive. They immediately arranged another session for the following day, and the café even offered complimentary pastries for my family, which were delicious.
We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the experience. We’ll definitely be back to try the keyboard-making keychain activity next time. Can’t wait!
I’ve been using Klook for several years now, and they’ve always been reliable and efficient
experience: amazing
safety: very safe
equipment: the brushes might need to be cleaned properly before using

You can reach the mall directly by taking the subway to Surian Station, which is very convenient and protects you from the sun. Its excellent location makes it ideal for visiting in any weather. The park operates on a timed entry system (every half hour), and the crowd control measures help maintain order within the venue. Upon entry, staff will stamp your hand, allowing multiple re-entries throughout the day, which provides great flexibility for your visit.
There are many adorable animals in the park that you can interact with up close. For example, there are two lambs that roam freely. If you stop petting them, they will gently nudge you with their small horns, indicating they want you to continue. However, it's a bit sad that only one capybara remains from what used to be three. Visiting here evokes mixed feelings: on one hand, I really want to get close to the animals, but on the other, I feel sorry for them, as they are brought here by humans to live in an artificial environment without even the chance to bask in the sun.
Overall, I recommend arriving around 10:30 AM. After exploring for a while, you can head downstairs to the mall for lunch. After your meal, you can use your hand stamp to re-enter the park and continue your visit. It's a relaxing and fulfilling half-day outing.

Quick facts about Petaling Jaya
General info
What to know before visiting Petaling Jaya
What to do in Petaling Jaya
Petaling Jaya is best known for family-friendly outings led by Theme parks, Zoos & aquariums and Playgrounds, with Cultural experiences and Outdoor & sports activities filling quieter days. Visitor interest follows a strong annual rhythm: Klook booking data shows several peak months in mid-year and a long quiet spell toward year-end. Use that rhythm to decide whether you want lively crowds for big attractions or calmer days for museums and outdoor play—pick peak-season atmosphere or quieter off-peak afternoons. All figures above reflect Klook booking data and typical booking patterns.
When to visit Petaling Jaya
Mid-year is the busiest time: Klook booking data marks July as a clear peak, with June and April also running high. The quietest month is November, and demand drops sharply into the year-end; those months suit travellers who prefer fewer crowds. Prices move differently: the data’s priciest month is September while the lowest prices occur in June, so crowd levels and price pressure sometimes diverge — June can offer lower typical prices with still-elevated demand. For lower prices and smaller crowds, plan for June or the November–December quieter stretch; for lively atmosphere, pick the April–July peak months.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | Very quiet | PHP 1,011 |
| February | Quieter than usual | PHP 1,070 |
| March | Peak demand | PHP 1,011 |
| April | Peak demand | PHP 1,011 |
| May | Busier than usual | PHP 1,011 |
| June | Peak demand | PHP 951 |
| July | Peak demand | PHP 5,768 |
| August | About average | PHP 5,649 |
| September | Quieter than usual | PHP 6,422 |
| October | Very quiet | PHP 4,163 |
| November | Very quiet | PHP 6,125 |
| December | Very quiet | PHP 6,125 |
Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Tips for travellers from the Philippines
Most travellers book close to travel dates: Klook platform bookings are typically around 1 day ahead, with the earliest planners booking about 2 days out. That short lead time means you can often be flexible and lock in popular experiences a few days before, but during the April–July peak months it's wise to reserve sooner rather than later. Use Klook to compare options and grab confirmed tickets or timeslots a few days ahead so you avoid sold-out sessions while keeping plans flexible.
