About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Curious645824866110 contributionsJewish in MalaysiaWe were very surprised by the nice and clean airport in Terenganu. What a pleasant place until people found out that we were Jewish. They started to be even nicer and wanted us to know we were welcomed. Everything is even cheaper than in Thailand we were coming from. The airport shuttle was a specious and clean minivan. The driver named Kabu was a kind young man from Terenganu. Making stops anytime we needed on the way to Basut. Our first experience in Malaysia.Written 1 February 2025
- Fearless3091570 contributionsThank you RonnieWe had a great time on our Penang tour with Ronnie! He knows so much about the island and made everything super interesting. What was awesome was how he matched our energy—really friendly, fun, and easy to talk to. Ronnie took us to some cool spots we definitely wouldn’t have found on our own. Highly recommend him if you’re visiting Penang!Written 16 January 2025
- 927nataliea0 contributionsGood way to get your bearings on your first day in KL.Went early on a Saturday morning. Traffic was light for KL made driving around to the different sights very easy. Highlights were Chinese temple and Petronas Towers. Our driver Hery was very friendly and informative and a safe driver.Written 13 January 2025
- Michael D0 contributionsWonderful driver but unable to do the full tour that I bookedMy driver Rajan was wonderful and very friendly. He made the trip very enjoyable. Unfortunately, the booking does not indicate that stages 3 and 4 of the cave tour require 5 people minimum. When I arrived after booking stage 4 I was only able to do the short stage 2 tour.Written 9 January 2025
- Oisín Ó0 contributionsGreat tripExcellent. Wasn’t 100% sure what to expect, but it was like watching little LED lights popping in the bushes from a boat. Seeing the temple and the monkeys on the way there was a bonus. I’m not sure the restaurant fully understood my food allergy though.Written 9 January 2025
- Jesse A0 contributionsOnce in a lifetime experienceThis is definitely one of the most difficult hikes that we have ever been on but it was well worth it to see the rafflesia flower. The guides were wonderful and did their best to make sure that we were safe the entire time and made us feel very welcome.Written 25 November 2024

- 399levinias0 contributionsBest Tour Guide!Ronnie Ranjit was my tour guide and he was amazing. Knowledagble historically and culturally. I wanted to see a lot of the street art so he adapted my tour to allow for enough time to get to the streets and some obscure side streets to see murals. It was a great introduction to Penang and I am glad I choose this tour.Written 4 November 2024
- levinias20240 contributions5 hrs well spentHighly recommend this tour. Great historical and cultural intro to George Town. My guide Ronnie Ranjit was the best. Knowledgable, and accommodating. When I said I wanted to see street murals he made sure I got to see more than just a couple that might have been standard for the tour. Let me wander the temples on my own time. I never felt rushed to get to the next location.Written 2 November 2024

- NatalieA21380 contributionsLights in the cityOur tour guide Rajan picked us up on time. As we had already seen a few of the places he suggested we go to, our first stop was River of Life. We had been there in the daytime bit not at night & it looked spectacular. Our next stop was KLCC lights & that was cool as well as seeing the Petrona Towers lit up. We then visited the mall & had something to eat before Rajan dropped us back at our hotel. Rajan was very knowledgeable and a good tour guide. We would recommend him to any first time travellers to KL.Written 3 April 2024

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour, Fauzi our guide was very knowledgeable, spoke great English and gave us the time we wanted at each stop, at no time did we feel rushed. The Batu caves were really interesting to see, busy but not too much so. We then went on to the batik and pewter centres, again both were very interesting, with absolutely no pressure to buy anything (something we've encountered a lot in other countries). Lunch was at a local restaurant and was very tasty and plentiful, we couldn't eat it all. Fauzi checked we were happy with everything and if we needed any more.
After lunch we visited the hot springs, unfortunately they were way too hot for us, but interesting all the same. The final stop was the waterfalls, much cooler to paddle our feet in. Again they were busy, but this added to our enjoyment of the trip, especially a monkey stealing someones bag of crisps!
The whole trip lasted approx 7 hours and we were well looked aftwr throughout.

Mr. Raja was a wonderful guide and driver. He looked out for us and always made sure we had everything we needed.
The locations were incredibly interesting and we had a great time at each stop. The Batik Chong was severely underrated and I highly recommend spending more time there. The Batu Caves were incredible and unique.

A difficult one this. Our driver Rajan was an excellent guide and quite entertaining. However as a couple our opinion was that the pewter factory was very interesting, the batik factory was not and frankly I wouldn’t recommend any one visit the Batu cafe, at least not the main one containing the temple as over commercialised and too many people.
Perhaps other caves may have been more interesting, but we were only given an hour for the visit.
The hot springs are not in a natural settings and are a waste of time and the waterfall is ok, but again a fairly quick visit of an hour.
The lunch was excellent and there was plenty of delicious food.
Unfortunately overall I would recommend the company , but probably not the tour in its present format.

A great day out. Harry was a terrific tour guide who made us feel very comfortable and relaxed as we drove around.
Batu Caves are busy and it's a hike to get to the top but well worth it. Make sure you bring your bathers for a swim in the waterfall, it's absolutely amazing and a well needed cool off on a hot and humid day.
The Pewter Factory and Batik shop are quick stops but quite interesting.

I had booked a private car to take me to the waterfalls and for tour of Batu caves. The car was 90 minutes late. When it arrived, it was dirty, smelt and there was no Aircon. This was supposed to be a tour but he was a driver and not a tour guide. The car then broke down and I was stuck for 30minutes on the high way not knowing what had happened.
I've since found that for £40 you can hire a car from your hotel to take you to the Batu caves and wait for you for 3 hours. I had paid £98 for this disaster and have had to argue about getting a refund.

Dear Jennifer,
We sincerely apologize for the unfortunate experience you had with the service provided for your visit to the waterfalls and Batu Caves. We understand the distress and inconvenience caused by the late arrival of the car, its unsatisfactory condition, the lack of air conditioning, and the unexpected breakdown on the highway.

We want to inform you that the refund process has been completed, and you should receive the funds according to your bank's processing times. We deeply regret that the service did not meet your expectations or our standards, and we appreciate your feedback as it is crucial for us to address these issues promptly.
Please rest assured that we are taking immediate steps to review and enhance our service protocols and partner evaluations to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future. Our goal is to ensure that all our clients receive the quality, reliability, and enjoyment they expect and deserve.
Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns, or if there is anything else we can do for you, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Absolutely wonderful day. Well paced and good variety of places. Our guide INDRAN arrived right on time and was excellent throughout and let us go at our own pace and take our time. He varied the itinerary by starting with the springs, waterfall and then caves, followed by a scrumptious Indian lunch before heading to the batik, watch and pewter factories. This flowed very well and helped us avoid the hottest time of the day. Would thoroughly recommend this to any visitor to KL. Just remember to take water, although you can buy at the waterfall as well as the caves, and watch out for the monkeys (even at the waterfall we saw one steal someone’s unattended bag.

Helpful guide takes you on a private tour to a 3/4s day adventure.
Hot springs are low key and too hot to swim in, only good for soaking feet.
The falls are gorgeous and quite private. Those who can hike a bit will be rewarded with extra falls.
The Batu caves are simply stunning. Plenty of monkeys and multiple temples to enjoy. Some of the other temples do have additional fees.
The Batik shop is just some store. Cute, and they have a little demonstration and explanation.
The Pewter museum is also a fun little diversion.

Our guide and driver Faizal was excellent, very polite and friendly, picking us up early (9am) to go to Batu Caves, avoiding the rush. We visited the hotel springs and the 7 level waterfalls, really enjoyable, prepare to paddle and swim. We visited a unique hand made silk scarf shop, seeing the crafts people at work and trying the hand colouring technique. The designs are unique and available to buy at v reasonable prices. Lunch was provided at a local Malaysian restaurant, let Faizal know what you like/don't like and he will order accordingly, great food. Onto the Royal Sekangor pewter works, fascinating history and chance to see inside factory where everything is handmade. Faizal kindly dropped us off at KL Station for our onward journey. **** rating for Faizal and VFM of trip, activities we would otherwise not have seen. Be prepared for lots of steps, 260 at Batu Caves, very steep, especially coming down and steep climb at waterfalls.

Albinhar was a great driver/guide! Very friendly and able to provide relevant information for the places we were going. It was also very nice that it was only me and one other person, so it felt more personal. The steps to the temple were quite something but doable and the view and temple are impressive. The same could be said for the waterfalls, which were nice and cool after the hot springs. We took some great photos and I bought a nice shirt at the Batik shop and the Royal Selangor (interesting tour here!).
