Food tours don't get better than this! - My wife and I always take a food tour whenever we visit a new city. So we have done plenty in our time. But we both agreed that this was the best we've ever had.
What made it particularly special was that Karlson took immense time and trouble to make sure that he ordered things we would both like.
Karlson was a great host. The food was immense (and very plentiful...essentially we had 3 full dinners!) and the places he took us to were ones that we could never have found for ourselves.
An outstanding tour and highly recommended.

Hidden Gems - When you think you’ve tried it all, there’s still more to discover. I have been in Malaysia for 2 weeks already and thought I’ve tried the local spots, but this food tour opened my tastebuds. Karlson took us to where the locals actually eat and not the tourist traps. Each location had a nice backstory to it and made the food taste five times better.

A perfect “10” food experience - Karlson was AMAZING! I had one of the best food tasting experiences I have ever had. He took me to incredible places and we tried 14 different dishes over the course of the evening. He was always checking in to make sure he was ordering things that sounded good to me and then ordering some surprises too - everything was a perfect “10”. Karlson is very knowledgeable about food and the history of the places we went. I highly recommend this tour and Karlson.

Wonderful and precious memories of gourmei tour - I'm SEJOON KIM, who signed up for a food tour program on Friday evening, December 27th. I'm writing to compliment my guide, Karlson, who guided us both at that time.
Actually, it rained a lot last Friday evening, so the traffic was very heavy. So I was worried that I wouldn't be able to enjoy it enough because it started a little later than we originally expected. Also, we were the people who usually sleep before 10 o'clock, so we weren't sure about eating a lot until 11 o'clock.
However, Karlson was very reliable and calmly guided us through the tour. As a result, contrary to our initial concerns, we had a very satisfying and impressive time. Of course, contrary to our usual behavior, we ate too much at night.^^
I support Malaysia Food Tour and I will recommend it to other friends in the future.
Sincerely,
Sejoon Kim

Incredible experience! - We had the good fortune of enjoying a private food tour with Charles, and it was an experience to remember! Even in the midst of a crazy storm, Charles took us to all the right spots and introduced us to unforgettable flavors from KL’s Chinese, Indian, and Malay cuisines. His knowledge of the city and its food scene was unmatched, and he truly elevated our culinary adventure. Big thanks to Charles and Malaysia Food Tour for an incredible experience. Highly recommended!

Must do in KL - A must do while staying in KL, ask for Karlson he made the experience fabulous. His contacts and knowledge of where and when to go dine was brilliant, you try Malay, Indian and Chinese cuisine at places you would never find alone. We loved it!

Go hungry, you won’t be disappointed - We had a great evening with Karlson who firstly was very understanding when we arrived late due to bad traffic☺️. It was just us with him so he was able to tailor the experience a bit and we ate Malay, follow by Indian and finished with Chinese food. We wouldn’t have had a clue where to start or what was good to eat on our own, but Karlson knew all the best places at all the best stops. We also got a lot of history and background on the areas we visited.
Just felt like we were out with a mate for the evening.
Never been so full in my life though and definitely didn’t do it all justice!

Great street food tour in KL! - Food tour with Karlson was great. Experienced a variety of food & food places that we would never have tried on our own! Quality & quantity was excellent at every stop. He even dropped us back at our hotel after to save us getting a taxi. Only disappointing thing was that he didn't share the photos he took
