Additional Information

Malacca, years ago, was a highly coveted tourist spot in Malaysia. Prior to Kuala Lumpur’s transformation from a mosquito-ridden jungle to a sleek city of skyscrapers, Malacca held a reputation as one of Southeast Asia’s leading trade harbors. Over the years, it transitioned from a bustling port to a serene backwater city, consequently losing its appeal…

Great day trip - Matha picked us up in a great air conditioned car which was most welcome. Matha kindly made a comfort stop on our way to Malacca and provided us with bottles of water during the day. Matha then dropped us at various points of interest which was great however, we originally thought he would accompany us to the temples, forts etc. We stopped off in Jonker Street for lunch which was okay but would not eat there again. Matha was extremely helpful, courteous and very polite the whole day. Chris and Jude Moss UK

Malacca 1 day trip from KL - Malacca is spectacular, with many tourist attractions of great historical value. You should consider at least 2-3 days, as the 1-day tour only gives a vague idea of the city. However, our guide was very attentive and managed to give us a good idea with detailed explanations of the places we passed. Being Portuguese, we had high expectations of seeing what remains of Portugal's presence in Malacca. Unfortunately, it's down to a door in the old fort (A Famosa) and a neighbourhood outside the city where you'll find several restaurants serving dishes with a few (very few) Portuguese flavours. Overall, it was very nice to spend the day at Malacca!

Malucca private tour - Great information, good driving, all the bases covered. Excellent lunch, and nothing was hurried. Since the mosque was closed, our driver/guide took us to the Portuguese settlement.

A day in Malacca - A fabulous day seeing Melacca with plenty of time to explore. We wandered around Red Square and viewed the buildings from the outside as many outside as many are closed on a Monday. A visit to the Islamic museum was interesting. Visit the small supermarket and wander in the shops. Cool down in Hard Rock Cafe. Lunch was traditional Indian plan leaf and the visit to the floating mosque completed our day. Loved travelling in style snd the countryside views give a good overview,

Lovely visit - Interesting historical place well worth a visit and a must is the Cendol from Kampung Hulu slightly off the beaten track but my the river. The 30 minutes boat trip was also very good.

We would recommend this tour. - Malacca was removed as a port of call on our cruise so we chose this day trip from Kuala Lumpur before embarkation. It was an interesting and enjoyable tour. I had been there over 60 years ago so I wanted my wife to share the experience. We think the itinerary needn't be so detailed. We chose to cut out one or two in order to spend longer in the places that were of most interest to us.

Truly interesting, historic destination - We had a private tour which is a great way to travel. You can vary the itinerary, slightly , if you more interested in some places than others. Mr Shah, our guide was knowlagable and Melacca is a truly interesting and historically fascinating place. Well worth a visit

Average destination, average tour - Its an ok town, with a few things to see. Don’t expect this to be a guided tour, its just a driver taking you from stop to stop, following the itinerary regardless of creating its own logical order. Most of the times we didn’t know where were we going or even what we were going to see, just a hand signal to get out of the car and walk.

Never again ! - We have been booking tours with Viator for a few years and this must have been the most disappointed experience we ever had. We paid for a whole day private tour from Kuala Lumpur to Malacca, clearly it said water, lunch and many attractions entry/admission included. We did not get our welcoming water from the tour guide (Helmisamarudin). He drove us to Malacca and took us to only 2 out of 10 attractions listed on the tour program. He then told us to take a 10 mins river cruise (which we paid for) then walk around on our own, get lunch and meet him back at the car to be taken back to Kuala Lumpur. We had to pay for our own lunch and water! So the $340 AUD we paid for the whole day tour was just for transportation. Could have got to Malacca and back for 1/2 the price. Can not believe Viator contracted this guy.
