Highly recommend this walking tour to get acquainted with the city. - Alvin was a very good guide, knowledgable and introduced the different parts of the city center and some historical background of the places. I was the only customer and he still held the tour for me, I really appreciate it. I’d recommend his tour to people who enjoy walking and getting to know KL.

I really enjoyed this walking tour in KL - I had a great time being part of this walking tour. I didn't have much free time as I was on a business trip but I feel that I managed to see the most important parts of the city through this tour. My guide was friendly, insightful and funny. I highly recommend this tour!

extremely enjoyable and informational. - This was a fantastic tour. The tour guide, Alvin, was extremely knowledgable in the history of Malaysia and all the cultures that it is composed of. In each temple he was able to explain the religion, history, and even name all the gods and godesses. Alvin also went beyond the tour and helped us find a restaurant and transportation after the end if the tour. I would highly reccomend this tour and Alvin.⁸

Walking Tour with Alvin! - Fabulous walking tour with Alvin today. Alvin greeted me with a bottle of water and some treats that were most welcome. Alvin is extremely knowledgeable about the history and origins of KL, the buildings, the cultures, and customs. I was the only one booked in today, so had a great 1:1 experience. We stopped off at a bar to get a drink and wait out the rain shower, and he introduced me to his friends as if I was a friend! I would highly recommend Alvin and this tour. A great way to acclimatise and orientate myself to KL. Thank you Alvin!

A must do in KL - A great day out , we did the morning tour today and had a fantastic time. We saw a lot of things which we definitely would not have without the tour and learnt a lot about the city from a locals perspective. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting KL, we were taken on the tour in a small group making it much easier to interact and ask questions along the way. Also super friendly and entertaining too , thank you.

Could be better - Guide was friendly but I think a few things could have been improved... The "snacks" were a couple rice crackers in a bag they gave us at the start. Considering how far we walked, past multiple food markets/stalls, etc, I think they could have easily and cheaply worked in a hot, local snack that was better than the few rice crackers, and incorporated it into the tour. The guide knew a LOT, but also I felt got distracted a lot, so I didn't learn all that much about Malaysia/KL, or I guess as I was hoping to. The tour also walks FAR. I'm in good shape and I don't mind walking, but it felt like we could have at least stopped 1-2 places for a quick sit down break and chat (get more info from the guide about the specific location, like the River of Life for example, orayne elsewhere if it's a larger group and seating is needed... we just kind of walked through it fast and didn't stop. Overall not the best walking tour I've been on, but I appreciated the guide's overall knowledge and he was friendly.
