Kuala Lumpur Tour Guide

Kuala Lumpur Full Day Walking Tour 2014/ 2015.

Hai ! I am Rezz, a local Malay (male), 26 years old and graduated from a local university major in tourism management.
I am doing this activity as a hobby/part time job. I love to make friends with people from all around the world and show them the uniqueness of Malaysian culture, food and heritages.

Lets join my Local KL Full Day Tour ! Unlike any other !

Price : Only RM 180 PER GROUP.. yes per group.. regardless of how many participants..

Durations : 9AM-6PM (9 hours)

Area : Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya (administrative capital), Shah Alam (Selangor's capital city) and surrounding areas.

Including : Tour guide fee. (No tips required..generally, Malaysian do not practice tipping..)

Exluding :

  • Food and beverage.. I will guide you to various off track & authentic local restaurants/ food stalls.. mostly unknown to average tourist.. and the price are much more cheaper than non local eateries, for example, the ultra-touristy Jalan Alor in Bukit Bintang. 
  • Entrance fee (if any).. but most of tourist attractions such as Masjid Jamek, Merdeka Square, National Mosque, Putrajaya 'Pink' Mosque, Batu Caves Hindu temple etc..are free of charge. 
  • Transportation for participants and for tour guide. Generally, this is a walking tour.. But some areas such as Batu Caves, Shah Alam and Putrajaya, require us to use public transport (train, subway, bus & monorail) with minimum fee.. should be around RM 5 to RM 15 per person for return journey.
