⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautiful and peaceful destination with stunning architecture and well-maintained surroundings. We enjoyed visiting the iconic landmarks and taking in the scenic views around Putrajaya. It was a relaxing experience and a great addition to our Kuala Lumpur trip.

I received an email about the transfer the evening before, but I also contacted Klook myself. Having hotel pickup and drop-off made joining the tour very easy. We were able to see the main sights of KL, so it was excellent value for money. The guide actively offered to take photos for us. I don't understand much English, but as long as I could catch the meeting time, everything was fine.

We opted for the 10 hour tour and our driver Benny picked us up at our hotel right after we had our lunch. Benny was very friendly, patient and helpful. He took many pictures for us, even digitally removing the crowd from the background for some pics. After Batu cave and some other sights, we had yummy seafood dinner. there we caught sight of mudskippers and monitor lizards at lowtide next to the seafood place. We ended the day on a speedboat, watching eagles feeding, then the fireflies and finally enjoying the “blue tears” effect as we stirred the waters with nets

This was a nice private tour around KL. Uncle Adam was our tour guide and driver and he did an amazing job explaining the history of the places we visited. We got to know more about KL and Malaysia as a whole just by listening to his stories. It would have been different if we were just led to the destinations for picture taking so it is nice to have a guide like uncle Adam. The places we went to were all awesome. To end the trip, we went to Jadi Batik for some painting. We took our paintings as souvenir. 5/5

This was a really great tour for our first trip to Kuala Lumpur! Our tour guide Alvin was great! He was punctual, friendly, and the tour was really interesting. We especially loved his tips on where to stand to take the best photos at each site. We also liked how flexible he was with how much time we spent at each site (for example, we didn’t stay that long at Batu Caves because we chose not to climb the steps and it started raining so we chose to leave earlier). He also shared information about Kuala Lumpur and other places in Malaysia which we found really interesting. We felt that the price was an excellent value especially for a private tour with pick up and drop off from our hotel. We also felt that the tour had a great balance of types of stops between photo stops and other stops and also cultural stops like Batik and religious stops like the mosque. We definitely recommend this tour and our tour guide Alvin!

We had the best time during this tour. It was organized, senior-friendly and very informative. The pace from one place to another was just appropriate. We enjoyed every stop and learned a lot about Malaysia. The driver was also kind and accommodating.
