Wonderful day of exploration - We have been blessed to have visited many places around the world with a variety of tour guides. I can confidently state that our day with Jai exploring the Cameron Highlands was truly one of the best experiences we've had! His smooth driving along very twisty roads was a blessing that kept any hint of motion sickness far away. As the day went by, Jai added unexpected and delightful quick stops that helped break up the drive while also adding informative and entertaining additions to the agenda. A true highlight was the addition of visiting the Mossy Forest which Jai suggested we do after he heard about our interest in cloud forests! We also loved our lunch, a wonderful South Indian feast that tantalized the taste buds while energizing the body after a busy morning of hiking and learning about the tea harvest process. At the end of the day, we got back to our hotel absolutely thrilled with our experience, a bag full of extra surprises to remember it all, and a new friend who we look forward to seeing whenever our paths cross again! Most highly recommend!!

A perfect day in the Cameron Highlands - It was a wonderful trip to the Cameron Highlands. Our guide Jai organized the day perfectly and showed us the absolute highlights of the area. His explanations during the tour were incredibly interesting and informative and we had the opportunity to taste many different local and authentic dishes both for breakfast and lunch.
In addition to the tea plantations, we also visited a beautiful rose and orchid farm and a waterfall. Jai not only visited the typical and partly crowded "touri spots", but also planned the tour so that we could see as much as possible, but enjoy the day fully.
The tour with Jai I can only recommend to everyone. He is one of the best and most attentive guides I have ever experienced.

Beautiful day with a friendly and generous guide - Jai introduced us to the essentials of Cameron Island in one day by passionately sharing his knowledge of the area, his journey and moving away from crowded places. He knew how to identify our desires and what was less suitable for us, had special attention with us and the local people we met. His driving on these sometimes narrow roads was safe.

Jae is a true professional, a knowledgeable guide (history, current events, geography, botany and politics). His sense of humour was greatly appreciated, in addition to his kind and courteous disposition.
Bravo Jae! A superb day living like a local, with a true gentleman.
Terimah Kasih!! Book with Jae, if you get the chance.
Oh yes, and the food from Tandoor Grill in Ipoh was delicious 🙌🏻💥

Great guide and great day! - My partner and I have just finished the Cameron Highlands tour with Wassu our guide and wow!
Wassu picked us up from Travelodge Ipoh at 8am and it was a quick hour thirty drive past a few temples of the region while he gave some information about each location as well as sharing stories about his life growing up in Ipoh.
We visited 2 tea plantations, BOH and Cameron Valley Tea. Went past Hobbitoon a strawberry farm, butterfly garden, a Buddhist temple and finished off with a trip to a waterfall and local market stalls from people that live in the jungles of the CH. Wassu was kind enough to get us a key chain of king root for good luck.
To top it off we had lunch at an excellent Indian restaurant Yash Banana Leaf. We arrived back at our hotel at 7pm and couldn’t be happier.
Wassu was kind, funny and ensured we were looked after by people who worked at the places we visited. He had water ready for us and plans to make sure the rain didn’t impact our fun! Umbrellas and ponchos at the ready!
Couldn’t recommend this guide enough.
Hey Wasso say hello to your wife for us!

Highly recommended! - We booked a day trip to the Cameron Highlands with Jaies and it was an absolute highlight! Jaies knows an incredible amount, knows every corner, is well connected and really very competent. He is also a very good driver, which is really important on these winding roads! We were picked up at our hotel, visited the tea factory and tea plantations, the Rose and Orchid Garden, he led us to the market and to an incredibly good Banana Leaf Lunch. In the afternoon we visited more tea plantations and tea shops, he guided us through local shops on the roadsides and explained various indigenous medicinal plants. He gave us various snacks to try and could answer all our questions. The tour was really worth the money and I can really only recommend Jaies and his company!

absolute recommendations - from the getgo our guide Wassu greated us with the biggest smile. he fed us with ton of interesting knowledge of ipoh and cameron highlands as well as ton of delicious snacks and indian meal for lunch. the milkcorns were so sweet and juicy both streamed and raw form, absolute must try. also the lady at the produce store was really friendly and let us try lot of different fruits and veggies. the indian meal was so good we left our external battery at the table when we left, maybe subconsciously wanted to go back for a 2nd meal (thanks for going back and retrieving it for us Wassu). also the lempeng pisang was very delicious! coconuty grilled pancake! also the views at both tea plantations and the waterwall also were gobsmackingly beautiful. the weather was switching back and forth between cloudy foggy sunny and rainy. but each weather made it even more memorable and we were so lucky we avoided rain at all the outdoor activities (thankyu for the prayers and weather power Wassu haha). The fogs made the tea valleys even more mystical. and of course Michael Jackson the orang asli, very entertaining fella. Overall the tour was an amazing experience for us and would absolutely recomend the tour with Wassu. (thank you)

A fantastic day trip to Cameron Highlands with lunch. - The Cameron Highlands are listed as one of the 25 things not to miss in Malaysia. Jaie’s well planned tour made it feasible for us to see and get a real feel for the place in one day. It was great that he used the old road going and the new road coming back, avoiding the worst traffic and allowing us to see more! Being tea drinkers we enjoyed the 2 quite different plantations. Jaie was knowledgeable about the cultivation and processing of the tea. We were confident in Jaie’s choice of restaurant for a Banana Leaf Curry. It was great to be able to enjoy some of the local fruit and vegetables from the market stalls in Brinchang. We particularly enjoyed the banana coconut pancake from the stall near the waterfall. Jaie was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and we gained from his well planned itinerary . Would not hesitate to recommend
