Fantastic way to see the sights :) - What a fantastic way to see the sights, our guide Jay was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, we would highly recommend using him/the Company he works for, we went to the hot spring , waterfall (with lots of cute monkeys), then to the Batu caves, allow 3-4 hours for all 3.

A wonder spectacle at the Batu Caves - Stephen was our guide , he was very punctual and very nice and friendly. On the day we went Batu caves it was very busy, Stephan made suggestions which changed the order of the itinerary but in doing so made it much more efficient use of time. Bath caves is a must see , we were lucky enough to witness a festival and Stephan was very patient with us. Selangor factory iscwith a trip and the hot springs is just a nice thing to experience. All in all a livel day with a kind thoughtful and knowledgeable driver/guide. .

Not as described but driver amazing - Our driver, Maran, was so lovely and knowledgeable. This review is for him!
The tour company though initially had us booked as having to pay our own entrance fees (was cleaned up when driver made a call to them), but Viator bookings don’t show what you actually booked or the original ad which makes verifying ourselves very difficult.
Tour ws supposed to include hot springs - it did not. We asked the driver about this when nearly back at city and he said it wasn’t booked as that (was clearly described in booking). He offered to take us out again but was a bit late in the day and too far to head back.
There are lots of steps at waterfalls and Batu caves - got lots of exercise today!! :)
FYI - need cash to use toilets at waterfall (1 MYR plus extra for toilet roll!)

Worth a visit to Batu Caves - Driver was friendly and nice
Took us to the venues detailed on the trip as advertised
We had plenty of time at each site however there was not enough information I felt about what we were to do there
Eg swimming in waterfalls and bathing at hot springs
Apart from that it was good value for money

The worlds worst Tour - This was the worst tour I have ever been on in my life!! An absolute waste of money and total scam. Paid for a very expensive Grab driver, with no conversation or any semblance that we were on a organised excursion.
Please never use this company - run far and fast and do not waste your money or time.
