About the operator
- Sangeeta S00Great TourGuide/Tour driver was very helpful, understanding and knowledgeable. This tour covered the most important attractions of the city.
- 302jonesl00ExcellentTour was excellent. We were brought to many interesting places. Batu Caves and KLCC was the main highlight. Driver gave a lot of flexibility and skips the places which we intended not to go.
- malemos00They take you places but without explanationsThe tour is good in the way that they take you to different places and the guide was nice and on time; however, it was more like a taxi service than a tour. we went to different places and in one of those the car driver explained superficially what it was and in others literally he took me a photo (in order to prove that he left me there) and I was walking alone. I think that the tour could be shorter if they didn´t include a lot of commercial things that I didn´t want to visit. At night I decided to take another tour and in four hours I learned more about KL than in this tour.
- Curiosity3272823262000A full tour of Kuala Lumpur, with Batu Caves, Petronas Towers, the King's Palace, etc all at your own paceThis was a full day which appeared to capture all the sights of Kuala Lumpur. The highlight for me was the Batu caves. There are a few attempts to sell you stuff; pewter, chocolate, tea/coffee and silk, but it was mostly accompanied by interesting tours. I hadn't expected an individual tour, I'd assumed a minibus of fellow travellers, but we had our own driver, Daniel. He was very good and flexible, tailoring the timing to what we wanted. I'd have appreciated a map and a bit more commentary/ explanation, but I'd definitely recommend this tour. Great value for money.
- Travel4913941075300Excellent Way To Go Around the CityThe day was well planned by the driver/guide. They will recommend how long you can spend in each place but flexible on your plans as well. If you want to visit either the Petronas Tower or Kuala Lumpur Tower, you can contact the tour operator before to make the arrangement for the ticket. Overall satisfied with this tour.
- thepwood00Perfect tourIt’s always a better idea to get a guided tour, you see more and definitely learn more than if you go on your own. ILias with skyline tours was a great guide, fun to talk to and the car was very beautiful. I would totally recommend this tour
- drmegamente00Nice but it’s only a private driver, no infoThe places visited were nice, but it’s not a tour on itself, it’s a driver hired for the day. The driver, Amin, spoke very little English, and offered no information whatsoever. I mean, he was nice and polite, he was prompt, but we were dropped off at locations with hardly any data to go. If you are only around for the pictures, give it a go. But if you like to learn about places, look for a real tour.
- toddshulman70700A FULL Day, Plan What You Want to SeeHighlight of this tour is the Batu Caves; it is like 16 flights of stairs to get to the main cave, but there is also a side cave/temple that is easy to get to for those who don't/can't climb. Once you get to the main cave there are a few stalls selling ice water and snacks. You need to tell the guide how long you want to spend at each stop; he follows a set format of stops, but will adjust based on your needs. Be aware there are shopping stops at a batik clothing place and at a chocolate store, both could be skipped (you just have to tell the guide). The chocolate store was underwhelming, especially after having been to a better version in Penang. NOTE: make sure to pre-purchase your Petronas Tower tickets at least 24-hours ahead of time, otherwise you will have to do what we did: go first thing in the AM with the guide to buy tickets for later in the afternoon (if they're not sold out).
- Sherpa1873670227200Very helpful guideThe tour was wonderful. My guide was friendly, helpful and gave me just the right amount of information. Many places visited. The Batu Caves the highlight, but very tiring climbing 272 steps. Thank you for an enjoyable day.
- paulhL6203QI00Not a tour, just a driver.This wasn’t a tour it was just a driver. The traffic in KL can be pretty bad, especially on a Friday, so we spent a lot of time in traffic jams. Sites visited: Palace, Batu Caves, Batik maker/shop, Royal Selangor, Central Market (lunch), Petronas Tower (for pic), Menara Kuala Lumpur (viewing platform), Merdeka Square, National Mosque, a Chinese Temple. Recommend you get a Grab and take a guidebook. For two people this was not good value.
- janethT8638QX00GreatExcellent all round. Courteous and respectful guide who went above and beyond. Pick up an drop off punctual.
- felix_infy00AwesomeA very flexible tour guide. He took us to a place of our interest which was outside the iternary. He even accommodated last minute changes. He took us to a restaurant of our choice even though it was off his route.
- 267doreenl00Best Way To See Kuala Lumpur!The driver was on time and very knowledgeable about everything! He was great about asking us if we wanted him to take our pictures at each sight. He was so good at knowing where we were at all times. Highly recommend this tour.
- Miffyspike00Safe and comfortable way to see Kuala LumpurDue to unforeseen circumstances I ended up traveling solo. I felt very safe with Vishnu and had fun!
- V2056ZWwesleyb00KL in a day!Iliyas was my guide for the day. He was very accommodating and with good insights. Thank you very much

Although Ipoh was a city 2 hours away from Kuala Lumpur, we did enjoy the tour. We booked on a weekend but the operator advised if possible to book on a weekday as the traffic will be bad since we had no.of booking with this company. Hence we went on a working day where the traffic was clear. Overall satisfied.
