WHAT TO EXPECT

1. {
Begin with an early morning pickup at your Singapore hotel. Our trained driver will meet you at the hotel driveway to check your documents before escorting you through immigration via the Malaysia drive-through border (no standing-in-line). After clearing immigration, your English-speaking guide will settle you into the comfortable seats of your private, air-conditioned minivan to enjoy the 4-hour chauffeured drive to Malaysia's capital - Kuala Lumpur.
2. {
Upon arrival in Kuala Lumpur, your first stop will be Batu Caves. The limestone forming Batu Caves is said to be around 400 million years old. Batu Caves was founded by K. Thamboosamy Pillai, an Indian trader in 1891, as a Hindu Temple dedicated to Lord Murugan. A 42.7-metre high gold-painted statue of Lord Murugan was unveiled in January 2006, having taken 3 years to construct. It is the tallest Lord Murugan statue in the world.
3. {
Located near Batu Caves is the Sri Durgai Amman Temple, dedicated to Goddess Durga, often regarded as the most powerful female Hindu deity - often depicted with 8 or 10 hands. As a symbol of the triumph of good over evil, Goddess Durga is portrayed in mythology as a warrior who vanquishes the demonic powers that threaten the social order, economic well-being, and dharma. In this temple, Goddess Durga is represented as a stunning woman riding a lion, her numerous hands armed with weapons to vanquish evil spirits. In essence, Goddess Durga's multiplicity of arms embodies her role as an all-powerful and fiercely protective goddess.
4. {
30 minutes drive from Batu Caves is the Istana Negara (National Palace). It is the official residence of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, the monarch of Malaysia. The palace complex has an area of 97.65 hectares, 22 domes, and is split into three main portions: the Formal Component, Royal Component and Administration Component.

Next stop after the National Palace is the famous National Monument, locally known as Tugu Negara. It is a historic bronze sculpture that pays tribute to those who died in combat during Malaysia’s battle for freedom against the Japanese occupation during World War II and the Malayan Emergency from 1948 till 1960. It serves as a remembrance of the bravery, courage and unity of the fighters who laid down their lives for Malaysia’s independence. The statue has earned its place in the book of records as the tallest freestanding group of bronze sculptures at 15-meter high.

When completed in end 2023/early 2024, it will be the world's second-tallest structure, surpassing the Tokyo Skytree at 634 meters.
10. {
From the Independence Square, you will have a vantage view of the Sultan Abdul Samad building, which is among Kuala Lumpur’s earliest Moorish-style buildings. It was built in 1897 and was named after the reigning sultan of Selangor at the time. The distinguished landmark originally served as the offices for the colonial British administration and the superior courts of Malaysia.
11. {
From the Independence Square, you will have a vantage view of the Royal Selangor Club. The club was founded in 1884 and originally served as a meeting place for high ranked and educated members of the British colonial society. Selangor is the name of the state in which the capital - Kuala Lumpur is located.
12. {
Next, your guide will bring you to KLCC Park, where you can take iconic ground photos of the world-famous Petronas Twin Towers.
13. {
After visiting KLCC Park, your guide will bring to the exterior of the Dewan Filharmonik Petronas for a photostop of the famous Mercedes-AMG F1 car replicas.
14. {
Next, your English-speaking guide will bring you to Menara Kuala Lumpur (KL Tower) to head up together to the observation deck to marvel at the many iconic landmarks of Kuala Lumpur.

Just finished a tour with Elmo yesterday- it was fabulous. he was knowledgeable and accommodating of our slower pace, but we still were able to see everything on our list! He knew all the “secret” places to get the best pictures! The company was very professional and we did not have any issues at all at the border.
Our driver, Sir G. Was also outstanding. On the way home, it felt like we were driving through a monsoon- very scary but he was an excellent driver- felt safe the whole time!
I would highly recommend this tour- Elmo was the best!!

It was an incredible experience! Our tour guide was very nice and friendly. He gave us a lot of historical information and took us to see the most important visiting points in 3 cities.

The view from the restaurant is simply incredible. We would definitely recommend this tour to our friends and family.

I had the most wonderful time doing a day trip from Singapore to KL. Pick up was right on time, whole ride was enjoyable despite the traffic on way back but most of all, Putri my guide made the experience really awesome. Putri was knowledgeable - took a ton of pictures, and moved at my pace the whole time. There was a lot to see and do, and we covered it all in the one day.

I couldn’t recommend Putri and this tour company enough.

Our guide - Putri and our driver - Wei were both pretty amazing at coordinating between them, time keeping, keeping us informed at every moment. They were approachable people, very down to earth and welcoming. Putri really walked the extra mile for us, helping with absolutely everything, checking in on us, making the experience as personalised as possible, getting to know us and being an incredible tour guide. Without both Putri and Wei we would not have had such an incredible time in Malaysia, they really made the trip for us. They made sure it ran so smoothly and really looked after us and were excellent company. We really appreciated their efforts they put in to make the trip most memorable. Putri even went on a hunt to buy my daughter something she’d been looking for and came back to surprise her with it after we watched the light show at the twin towers. We had so much fun with both the team. Thank you so much Putri and Wei (aka Nick). Lots of best wishes from us.

This was a long day that started at 5am, but I was so excited for the adventure. The tour had the right amount of tourist sites and my guide Putri was awesome. Plenty of updates of what the itinerary include information about the sites and a places of interest along the way. I appreciated her great banter with me as we walked about some of the sites, even a decent downpour on the day didn't dampen our tour. Putri was an excellent guide making sure I got the best photos (knowing all the places to take them) and ensured I didn't need to do any selfies at all during the day. I returned safe back to Singapore in the early evening.

Terrific day trip to Malaysia! My guide, Elmo, and our driver were fantastic! Loved visiting the UNESCO city of Melaka and learning its history. The government city of Putrajaya and Kuala Lumpur were so interesting. Elmo and our driver made the whole day run smoothly. The van was extremely comfortable which allowed me to rest and relax at the end of a busy and interesting day! The Batu Caves and the Hindu temple (along with the monkeys!) made for a very memorable day! Even though it is a long and full day, you get to sleep back at your hotel in Singapore at the end of the day. Highly recommend this tour!

We loved our time with Putri on our tour of Kuala Lumpur! She was so knowledgeable and we left the day feeling like we had made a new friend. This is THE BEST WAY to see KL in a day and even better if you’re lucky enough to do it with Putri as your guide
