The KL Walkabout Tour enables you to experience the rich diversity of typical Malaysian lifestyles in the cosmopolitan city of Kuala Lumpur, through a 7-hour journey on train, van and foot with lunch included. Kuala Lumpur is the capital city of Malaysia, which was built by Chinese miners that made the confluence of the Gombak and Klang River into a settlement in 1860.
The morning starts with a journey to a wet market to see the colourful and traditional way of shopping for household goods among locals. After that, you’ll proceed to the Petronas Twin Towers, or KLCC, one of the tallest structures in the world. From KLCC, you head on to Masjid Jamek by an LRT train to explore Little India in Masjid India Street.
Later, we proceed towards Jalan Tun Perak to see the Jamek Mosque, the city’s oldest place of worship for Muslims since 1909. You’ll also be show the confluence point between the Klang And Gombak Rivers before breaking for lunch in an authentic Indian banana leaf restaurant.
After lunch, it’s onwards to the Sultan Abdul Samad building, an important landmark in Kuala Lumpur which used to house the old railway station and high court. This heritage building has a 41-m clock tower dubbed as the ‘Big Ben of Malaysia’. Just opposite is the Dataran Merdeka or Independence Square, where Malaya proclaimed her official independence on 31 August 1957 by hoisting the National Flag.
From this point on, it’s a short walk to the Central Market, which showcases Malaysian handicrafts and artistic products; souvenirs you can purchase to take home. We close with a trip to ‘Sze Ya’ Temple,
