I had a great time being part of this walking tour. I didn't have much free time as I was on a business trip but I feel that I managed to see the most important parts of the city through this tour. My guide was friendly, insightful and funny. I highly recommend this tour!

Alvin is a great host and it made for a fun experience. Great way to get an introduction to Kuala Lumpur and it's short history

This was a fantastic tour. The tour guide, Alvin, was extremely knowledgable in the history of Malaysia and all the cultures that it is composed of. In each temple he was able to explain the religion, history, and even name all the gods and godesses. Alvin also went beyond the tour and helped us find a restaurant and transportation after the end if the tour. I would highly reccomend this tour and Alvin.⁸

Fabulous walking tour with Alvin today. Alvin greeted me with a bottle of water and some treats that were most welcome. Alvin is extremely knowledgeable about the history and origins of KL, the buildings, the cultures, and customs. I was the only one booked in today, so had a great 1:1 experience. We stopped off at a bar to get a drink and wait out the rain shower, and he introduced me to his friends as if I was a friend! I would highly recommend Alvin and this tour. A great way to acclimatise and orientate myself to KL. Thank you Alvin!

A great day out , we did the morning tour today and had a fantastic time. We saw a lot of things which we definitely would not have without the tour and learnt a lot about the city from a locals perspective. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting KL, we were taken on the tour in a small group making it much easier to interact and ask questions along the way. Also super friendly and entertaining too , thank you.

I had a day where I was the only one who booked the tour and I had a great time with the guide. He had lots of interesting information and knowledge about the city and history. Definitely worth the money!

Great tour. Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He had a good sense of humour. We learned a lot about KL and saw places that we hadn’t visited before. We covered a lot of ground on a hot sticky day. You need to be relatively fit to do this your. It is all on flat ground, but over 10 km so not for the extremely elderly. We had a really nice day and I would book this tour if you’d like to learn more about KL all in a day!

So knowledgeable and just what I was hoping for. A tour around areas that I hadn't visited with lots of information and discussion along the way. Highly recommend!

To be recommended as the first thing you do when arriving in Kuala Lumpur. Walking tours really help you get to know a place. Alvin clearly enjoys what he does and is an excellent guide. He is enthusiastic and knowledgeable, having made an effort to learn about the historical and cultural background of KUL. He is equally passionate about history in general which means there are also many exchanges on various topics, should you wish to, as you make your way around an interesting selection of locations in a 3.5 hour walking tour. Money well spent. Thank you Alvin. Robert

Our experience was super great! Alvin provided us with great explanations, about the history and context of the different parts of Kuala Lumpur we visited. He was very friendly and funny and always willing to answer our questions. We strongly recommend the tour with him! Thank you so much Alvin for your time and your knowledge! Your friends from Barcelona! :)

A very interesting walking tour around Chinatown, the “colonial” area and Little India. Alvin was a great tour guide and was able to provide insights that would not have been possible if we’d visited these places on our own. Recommended.

We had a really good (if *hot* -- not his fault!) walking tour with Alvin from Chinatown to the Indian Brickfields neighborhood, a goodly ~5 mile walk. Alvin pointed out architectural details and history, and notable food (the mochi lady!) along the way. We saw Petaling street, Central Market, Merdeka Square, Sri Maha Mariamman Hindu temple, National Mosque (from the outside,) the Botanical Garden, train station (air con!). Alvin gave us a "goodie bag" of snacks and water that we definitely made use of during the 3.5 hours. He is smart, funny, curious and well traveled -- a great guide.

Alvin was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. Walked around 12 km, as he told us, but it was slow paced so wasn't hard at all, for a couch potato. Saw a lot, learnt a lot. Only downside was that the canopy walk was closed, but not a deal breaker. Possibly because of new year dates. Also they have started charging entry for this as it was previously free, so something that could be done separately if you wanted. Recommend this tour and Alvin.

Whenever I visit a new place, I like to experience the sights, sounds and smells by doing a walking tour. Our guide, Alvin has lived in KL for about 20 years and really shares a lot of knowledge about the history and culture of the city. Some of the places we visited included Chinatown, Central Market, Little India the National Mosque and the Botanical Gardens. If you are visiting KL for the first time or you have visited before this tour is a good introduction to the city and its people.
