Visit Batu Caves, Thean Hou Temple, and Malaysia’s National Mosque on a four-hour Kuala Lumpur cultural tour for $33.

“We booked the private tour for the morning, which we highly recommend regarding amount of people and temperature. The booking process went really well but be advised to be patient with notification and communication with the tour operator regarding who will be your driver and the details of pick up, like described 24h before the tour. All went well and our driver, Mustafa, was super friendly, super on-time and we enjoyed the conversation and time with him. If you like to be without people and at your pace - that is perfect. 3 cultures and religions in a morning!”

8.Private Penang City Tour with Kek Lok Si Temple

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 24 reviews · 5 hours · from $106

Review of a private five-hour Penang tour covering George Town, two temples, Kek Lok Si, street art, and White Coffee sampling.

“Abbiamo avuto modo di visitare solo il tempio di Kek Lok Si per il tempo limitato di visita ma ne è valsa davvero la pena per il suo fascino e suggestione. Purtroppo la guida non ci ha dato quasi nessuna spiegazione e ci ha lasciato visitare liberamente gli spazi. Più un’autista che una vera guida. Anche il suo inglese non perfetto e pienamente comprensibile.”
