Good tour for getting to know the rural part of Malaysia and also some landmarks along the way - We participated in this experience with Avalee, he was both our guide and driver and he really did a great job explaining the history of Ipoh town, the different hardships of the Malaysian people during WW1/2 and many more bits of interesting Malay history.

Thanks to Mr. Raja's escorting. - I really enjoy this short trip escorted by Mr. Raja. With Raja's explanation, I know more about Ipoh's past and present. Mr. Raja is more than a driver but a tourist guide, he is so informative and cheerful. I appreciated his polite manner and photo taking skills. He can choose the best position to take good photos for me and my wife. So, I love Ipoh and thanks to Mr. Raja. 這個短旅程使我愛上了怡保,可能是因為Mr. Raja的導遊及接送,他真是一個有禮及善於講解歷史名勝的人,他的攝映技巧也十分了得,往往能找到最佳位置為我拍照,我對他的服務,感到十分滿意。

Joyful tour - We joined this day tour on 15/2/2023, our tour guide and driver is Mr. Raja, he is punctual, patient and caring during the whole tour. We received the pick up confirmation via email the day before, and Mr. Raja picked us up on time and it took 2.5hrs one way. he told us about the flow of the journey clearly, and tried his best to explain the history and origins of each places and spots to us even our english is not fluent. Since only two of us (my husband and I) joined this private tour, Mr.Raja took photos for us in every spots. We had a fun trip, the perak cave temple is magnificent!
