Our Private Tours

If you're going to be in Kuala Lumpur for various days and want to discover the most famous and beautiful places in Malaysia, there's no better way than on one of our private tours. The tours last between 4 and 9 hours and include hotel pickup, transport in a private vehicle, and a professional English-speaking guide. 

You can find a description of each tour below:

Batu Caves (4 Hours)

We'll pick you up at the hotel and head to Batu Caves. Along the way, we'll make a short stop at the National Palace, where the royal family of Malaysia resides. 

Once we reach our destination, we'll go on a guided tour of the most important Hindu pilgrimage site in the country. The Hindu god Murugan, the god of war and son of Shiva, is highly revered in Malaysia. In fact, there's a 141-foot (43-meter) tall statue in his honor.

We'll climb up the colorful rainbow stairs that will take us to the cathedral's main cave, where the priests pray. Inside, you'll admire the natural formation of limestone stalagmites and stalactites. At the end of the cave, you'll have a spectacular view of the giant cenote hidden in this site.

Afterward, we'll head to an artisanal Batik center, a traditional art for decorating Malaysia's traditional clothes. You'll see how the wax is drawn and how they hand paint on a silk white cloth. Hand-drawn batiks are unique—you won't find two that are the same!

Finally, we'll pass by the traditional Malaysian town of Kampung Bahru. Founded in 1900 as a farming land, it was later used as residential grounds. This town, located among the city's skyscrapers, is over 295 acres (120 hectares) and the last Malaysian site in the center of the city.  

We'll say goodbye at your hotel 4 hours later.

Schedule: this day trip takes place at 8:30 am, 1 pm, and 5 pm

Malacca (9 Hours)

With this day trip to Malacca, also spelt Melaka, an old Portuguese colony, you'll discover the impressive cultural heritage of the city and all the beauty of its streets and monuments.

Arriving at Malacca, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we'll visit San Pablo Church, the oldest catholic church in this region of the world, in addition to visiting the Portuguese fort, A Famosa, both built at the beginning of the 16th century.

We'll continue our tour at the Red Plaza, also known as the Dutch Square, featuring the famous Stadhuys and the old 1650 Town Hall, both known for their architecture. This spot is reminiscent of the picturesque squares in the city of Hoorn in the Netherlands. Photo time!

Next, we'll stroll down the famous Harmony Street, a unique spot where different religious sites all cohabitate peacefully. If we're lucky and places are open to the public, we'll visit the Chinese temple of Cheng Hoon Teng, the Kampung Kling Mosque, and the Hindu temple of Ganesha. Isn't it amazing that all these buildings are located right next to each other? You'll be astounded!

Afterwards, we'll stop at the well-known Jonker Street, a paradise for shopaholics and foodies. Here, you'll find traditional architecture, antique stores, and delicious street food stands. You'll have some free time on this street to try some Malay delicacies and buy a souvenir if you wish.

Before returning, we'll visit the traditional Malay village of Morten, where we'll learn about everyday life and the typical architecture of the Sultanate of Malacca. This charming place is home to around 200 houses that have been preserved for centuries. A truly enchanting journey into the past that will captivate you!
