The cypress and casuarina-lined driveway leads to two entrances
  • Petronas Twin Towers - PETRONAS Twin Towers are the tallest twin towers in the world, and its status has remained unchallenged since 1996. Take a photo with the height of 451.9 metres 88-storey twin structure is Kuala Lumpur’s crown jewel.

Kuala Lumpur Half day Tour - The most memorable tour I've ever been too. It was well explained, Balan made it fun and articulated it well. We learned a lot about the history of Malaysia Balan even assisted us in taking photos. Highly recommend it to someone who is new in Malaysia. The city is well developed and very clean. I was impressed. Good value for the money. Nice bus. The driver was careful.

A Tour of KL - The tour was very well planned and organized. Our tour guide Balan is very knowledgeable and communicates very well. Expectations were also managed in terms of how long is each stop, what activities can be done per stop, etc. All in all a great experience and would definitely recommend.

Excellent tour - Indran was an excellent guide - he explained the history and drove us round the city efficiently and with enthusiasm. By the end of the tour we felt we had an excellent understanding of the development of the city and its colonial past to the amazing city it is today! We would highly recommend this tour!

Compact and efficient - 대문자 P인간이라 계획 안하고 무작정 놀러와서 진심 뭐할까 고민하다가 싸서 신청했는데 알맹이만 골라서 데려갈데 다 데려가주니까 편하고 좋아요. 지나가면서 여기저기 막 소개하고 역사 알려주는데 그냥 그중에 한군데씩 골라서 다음날 가보기 계획하면 여행계획끝! KL맛보기용으로 컴팩트하고 딱좋아요 오전에 깔끔하게 하고 끝나는거라서 오후에 개인시간도 많이 남고 아저씨가 친절하게 일타강사같은 말투로 설명해주심 분명 영언데 귀에 쏙쏙들어와요. 다같이 버스 한 대 타고 그냥 잠깐씩 내려서 사진찍고 다시 타는데 시간도 충분하고 화장실 어딘지도 깔끔하게 알려주고 알짜배기인듯 아직 계획이 없다? 강추 I haven't planned anything for this trip so I booked this tour to look through entire vibe of kl and I really liked it. Compact and efficient. Price was affordable and we were brought to only important places. Raj explained us about all the fun facts and lil history of each places and his explanation is so on point that you don't need any prior history knowledge or high quality english skill. He was kind and gave us clear instruction on what we will do and when we will do, as well as toilet location info (v impt). We had enough time to get off the bus and take pics and it helped me to plan my next trip. Highly recommended
