“Mr Jeff, our guide and Mr Sri, our driver were awesome people. Even though our trip to Batu cave coincided with the celebration of Hindu’s festival, our guide was able to feed us more infromation about the history and significance of the Hindu shrine and the golden statue of Lord Murugan. We were able to visit also different places as scheduled despite of not so good weather during the day. Kudos to these 2 gentlemen for doing great job!”

“Nice trip, but rushed. Probably because we were waiting for some tourists. We had to wait for one guy to buy Croissant and Coffee for 20 minutes, because "he can't start a day without them". Definitely not enough time in Batu caves (30 minutes more would do). We really liked Tin factory - we didn't expect it to be this interesting.”

Based on his knowledge in culture and history he gave a very exiting briefing while driving to the first attraction. Some others followed with an intermediate stop at a batik store. As the final highlight we were at the Twin Towers which are very spectacular. This tour guided by Mr. Jacop is a must have to get introduced to KL.”
