5.00We had a blast with Johnson as our tour guide. Besides his sense of humour and positive attitude, Johnson is truly knowledgeable and willing to share his expertise on the life and culture of Malay people. A must recommend for everyone, it was our genuine pleasure!
Great value, great driver!

5.00Really enjoyed it! Great to get out of the city center, loved the pewter factory tour and batik tour was interesting. Batu caves is not to be missed. Driver (Ramesh) was fabulous; he was very relaxed, open to changing the order of things when we requested, and went above and beyond when he secured us ponchos when we got caught in an unexpected torrential downpour. Very reasonably priced too; great value for the cost!
Wonderful bus tour from KL TO Mallaca

5.00Had an amazing visit to Batu caves— definitely worth it! The experience was made even better thanks to our guide, Darwin, who walked us through the full history in such an engaging way. He also shared tons of helpful tips, not just about the place itself but also on what to do in the evening, where to go out, and how to make the most of the area. Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting
