Great morning out - I had a fabulous morning out with Praba (Pilot Prabaz). He was funny, chatty and knowledgeable about the area. I was travelling solo and felt very safe and Praha made sure I was happy every step of the way. This is a great way to spend a morning and I would 100% recommend Praba as your pilot.

Don't miss this trip! - The Batu caves were amazing, unique, and I survived the climb! The National Mosque was a tranquil and spiritual experience. I got a real flavour of Kuala Lumpur - I was taken to so many different places. Rin was an interesting and knowledgeable guide and very patient with my deafness!
I thoroughly recommend this tour, especially if you are only only in the city for a short time.

A good half day of highlights. - Satesh our guide was excellent. Sent us reminders and relevant info the night before and let us know in the morning how long until he picked us up. He avoided queues and was a great communicator giving us info on our stops and other activities that we asked about. The car was clean, tidy and importantly air conditioned. Bottle of water also included. Satesh took our photos at each stop.
