Our guide, Jacob, arrived to pick us up at our hotel early. Beautifully clean car. He provided excellent service and was very attentive responding to every request to make us happy guests. Batu caves is a wonderful site but be prepared to climb about 15 stories worth of steps. After touring the caves and surrounding temples there are a couple of other stops including the magnificent national mosque and Thean Temple. We also stopped for a quick Indian lunch by Indian Brickfields. All in all, a great half day tour
Well Worth the Half Day

We liked visiting the key cultural-religious sites in the KL area. Each one was different and unique based on the background. Our guide, Sathesh, was informative and very accommodating to our interests. He was able to adjust the schedule on the fly. In our case, we visited a Malaysian hand crafts center instead of Chinatown since we had visited there the day prior. You won’t get a deep appreciation for Malaysian cultural development during this tour, but it’s good for seeing several key sites in the area.
