Delicious and plentiful local food! - I decided to do this tour after have a great experience on their other food tour, the tastes of Sambal. This tour around Chinatown did not disappoint! Kiran was an excellent guide who provided a lot of information about the area and the food. This tour was a great mix of local sight seeing and tasting the local food. There was a lot of food provided, I recommend you don't eat anything before this tour. This tour is definitely enough for breakfast and lunch, and for me personally it was also enough for dinner! Very enjoyable and delicious tour. Thanks Kiran!

Great experience! - Sam was a great guide and very well informed. My wife and I greatly enjoyed ourselves trying food from stalls we wouldn't have noticed otherwise. The laksa was the highlight!

Amazing streetfood with a fantastic guide - We had an amazing day out with Kiran. She was very knowledgeable about the food and history and kept us engaged throughout the day. The street food was all so delicious. We tried many things that we would never have known about if wasn't for the perfectly organised tour. 100% would recommend.

The Best - Had the best time tasting local food and going to places that as a tourist you would usually pass by. Siddoz and his team were great and made us feel very welcome and safe. We would highly recommend this food tour.

Amazing introduction to Malaysia's cuisines - We had such a lovely time with our guide Sam and the tour was such a good introduction of what Malaysian food is about and the kind of melting pot, KL literally is. We at - soooo much! And it was very interesting to compare different type of baos and laksa. It was not just yummy but also very good to get an insight into the history of the cuisines and how they developed over time. Sam was so nice and very knowledgable and no, you will never finish this tour hungry.

A great day of eating! - Amazing tour. Our guide had so much knowledge and great stories for each vendor. He curates the tour to showcase local small businesses that make Chinatown such a special experience. We were struggling to find Laksa on our own and he managed to blow our minds with both a curry Laksa and the Asam Laksa. I highly recommend this tour, great value, great food, great guide. Thank you

Great experience! - Very nice tour, I recommend it 100%! Our guide, Stephen, was great. He kept us interested and active at every moment of the tour, he gave us context for every food we ate and everything was incredibly delicious!! Of course we didn't go hungry with everything they offer to eat, lots of variety! It was a unique experience that we would have liked to do at the beginning of the trip, instead of at the end of it, since we would have taken advantage of what we learned and savored much more, but we are happy we did it! :) Can’t wait to try in other asian countries! Thanks Malysia for the great flavours and Stephen for the knowledge shared.

A food tour to recommend - The food was really good. Malaysian cuisine is very varied due to the many cultures. Sam our guide gave us a very good insight into Malaysian cuisine, which is very diverse. He also explained a lot about the history of Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia.
