“We booked this tour on fairly short notice, but everything went well. The guide picked us up at our hotel on time, he was polite, spoke very good English and was a safe driver. Unfortunately the entire experience was rather impersonal. The guide never even introduced himself (we did) and the entire time seemed disinterested and bored. We have taken tours all around the world and usually the guides are eager to present their country/culture and are interested in communication with their clients, especially if it is a private tour with just 2 people. The guide seemed more focused on going through the itinerary as quickly as possible (and otherwise…”

Taste 10 Malaysian dishes on a private Kuala Lumpur food walk through Petaling Street, temples, markets, and local eateries.

“While our private tour had its ups and downs, there were notable highlights. Initially, we booked the tour with high expectations, but it turned out to be shorter than anticipated due to the small group size. On the bright side, our guide was incredibly helpful and eager to address any queries we had. The food offerings consisted of authentic street delicacies, although some raised concerns about hygiene. If time constraints aren't an issue, you'll find these delectable treats readily available at most local markets.”

“Raj was absolutely phenomenal! He contacted me the day before to confirm the pickup details which I appreciated. Once I was picked up, he immediately started telling me about his culture and the Mayalsian culture which was so informative. This is definitely not a guided tour - you get driven to each site and you have time to explore. I didn't mind this at all. Raj even took me to a few places that weren't on the itinerary. He is very passionate about Malaysian culture which adds such personality to the tour. The lunch provided was really delicious. Overall fantastic experience”
