TK made the tour awesome! - What a memorable experience with TK! He took such wonderful care of our family particularly my mom, and showed us many of the top sites in the central market area, educating us along the way. TK was such a gracious host; friendly, enthusiastic, and entertaining! He adjusted the itinerary based on our needs and even helped us bargain with shopkeepers. Thanks TK for a great tour!

A perfect tour with a wonderful guide - This tour was awesome to get a perfect overview of the city. Manjeet answered every question and showed us every community, hidden corners and many temples she explained to us inside. Due to the hot weather, we walked leisurely through the streets and listened to their stories. We would have loved to have them with us for the whole holiday, really recommended!

Kuala Lumpur Private Walking Tour - My husband and I had fantastic time with our guide Paul. He showed us around the city, provided us a lot of information and took us to places that we would have never visited on our own. We enjoyed it very much. We highly recommend this tour, you will not be dissappointed.

Highlights of KL - Manjeet was a fantastic guide. She shared tons of information and made certain I tasted some Malay food. She gave me plenty of facts and historical background for every place we visited. Manjeet really tailored the tour to my preferences. She went out of her way to show me Kampong Bharu. Her English is excellent. I would definitely take another tour with such a pleasant and knowledgeable guide. A really enjoyable time.

This local guide is the true hidden gem - Manjeet is the true hidden gem. Our family booked Manjeet for a walking tour of KL that we hoped was something beyond the average tourist traps. We’re a family of four full time travelers who have been to Europe, Southeast Asia, Central America, North America, and other points around the globe. We’re not typically the type of family who immediately head to the nearest tourist super hotspot. We look instead for those off the beaten path destinations. The spots where the hidden meaning and the connection to the culture is hard to find but worth the effort. Manjeet surpassed our expectations. We walked away from our day with this lovely lady having been given a window into a few worlds we very likely would never have seen without her help. She has a wonderful and comfortable wisdom that she readily shared with her guests. I often say it’s a shame to have the experience but to miss the meaning. Manjeet gave the entire day meaning. We could not recommend her more strongly.

Brendon: Unique guide! - We had the pleasure of having Brendon as our guide in Malaysia. His witty nature made the tour an unforgettable experience. Brendon not only knows the best food spots, but also caters to all requests. His extensive knowledge and friendly personality make him an outstanding companion. If you are visiting Malaysia, Brendon is definitely the best choice!

Tour guide never showed up - Tour guide never showed up. We got to the meet up location 10 minutes ahead of schedule and stayed there for more than 30 minutes. There was no answer when trying to communicate with the guide. Ruined the day’s plan. Viator is supposed to be getting us a refund.
