Begin with an early morning pickup at your Singapore hotel.
Our trained driver will meet you at the hotel driveway to check your documents before escorting you through immigration via the Malaysia drive-through border (no standing-in-line).
After clearing immigration, your English-speaking guide will settle you into the comfortable seats of your private, air-conditioned minivan to enjoy the 4-hour chauffeured drive to Malaysia's capital - Kuala Lumpur.
Along the way to Kuala Lumpur, your driver will make 2 stopovers.
The 1st stopover will be at a Starbucks/Costa Coffee near Malacca, where western-style toilets are available (toilet paper available upon request).
The 2nd stopover will be at a 5-star Marriott/Hilton Hotel, where guests can enjoy a premium western breakfast (or traditional Malay food upon request).
IMPORTANT: Guests who booked the "Malacca side trip" option will be provided an extra UNESCO Melaka highlights tour (Dutch Square, A Famosa Fort, St. Paul's Hill & Church, Middelburg Bastion, UNESCO Wall Art, St. Francis Xavier Church, Jonker Street, 15-minute Trishaw Ride), before proceeding to Kuala Lumpur.
Upon arrival in Kuala Lumpur, one of the first stops will be Batu Caves. The limestone forming Batu Caves is said to be around 400 million years old. Batu Caves was founded by K. Thamboosamy Pillai, an Indian trader in 1891, as a Hindu Temple dedicated to Lord Murugan. A 42.7-metre high gold-painted statue of Lord Murugan was unveiled in January 2006, having taken 3 years to construct. It is the tallest Lord Murugan statue in the world.
IMPORTANT: The order of sightseeing stops may be rearranged depending on actual Kuala Lumpur city traffic, crowd management, and weather conditions to optimize time usage.
Located near Batu Caves is the Sri Durgai Amman Temple, dedicated to Goddess Durga, often regarded as the most powerful female Hindu deity - often depicted with 8 or 10 hands.
As a symbol of the triumph of good over evil, Goddess Durga is portrayed in mythology as a warrior who vanquishes the demonic powers that threaten the social order, economic well-being, and dharma.
In this temple, Goddess Durga is represented as a stunning woman riding a lion, her numerous hands armed with weapons to vanquish evil spirits.
In essence, Goddess Durga's multiplicity of arms embodies her role as an all-powerful and fiercely protective goddess.
30 minutes drive from Batu Caves is the famous National Monument, locally known as Tugu Negara. It is a historic bronze sculpture that pays tribute to those who died in combat during Malaysia’s battle for freedom against the Japanese occupation during World War II and the Malayan Emergency from 1948 till 1960. It serves as a remembrance of the bravery, courage and unity of the fighters who laid down their lives for Malaysia’s independence. The statue has earned its place in the book of records as the tallest freestanding group of bronze sculptures at 15-meter high.
10 minutes drive from the National Monument is the Central Market. The market was originally founded in 1888, refurbished into its current Art Deco style in 1937.
Located near the Central Market is Thean Hou Temple, which was completed in 1987. It is a six-tiered temple of the Goddess of the Sea (Mazu). You can also find the Goddess of Mercy (Guanyin) and Protector of the Sea (Shui Wei Niang Niang) here.
Next stop is the iconic the Putra Mosque. Famed for its pink-granite domes, the mosque was completed in 1999 and named after the first Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tungku Abdul Rahman Putra.
Note: Guests who wish to enter the mosque may do so with mosque-issued modesty robes, provided it is not closed to the public (ie: outside Friday prayer times). Otherwise, guests may be respectfully requested to only take photos from the outside.
Located near Putra Mosque is the Malaysia Prime Minister's Office. It is located on a 50-metre high hill overlooking the city. The building is finished in natural stone with a green dome.
Located near Putra Mosque is the Palace of Justice, which houses the Federal Courts and Courts of Appeal. Relocated from Sultan Abdul Samad Building in 2003, the Palace Of Justice is also built with classical Islamic architecture.
40 minutes drive from Putra Mosque is the Istana Negara (National Palace). It is the official residence of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, the monarch of Malaysia. The palace complex has an area of 97.65 hectares, 22 domes, and is split into three main portions: the Formal Component, Royal Component and Administration Component.
10 minutes drive from the National Palace is the Dataran Merdeka (Independence Square). This is the historical place where the Union flag was lowered and the national flag was raised for the very first time at the struck of midnight of 31st August 1957.
From the Independence Square, you will have a vantage view of the Sultan Abdul Samad building, which is among Kuala Lumpur’s earliest Moorish-style buildings. It was built in 1897 and was named after the reigning sultan of Selangor at the time. The distinguished landmark originally served as the offices for the colonial British administration and the superior courts of Malaysia.
From the Independence Square, you will have a vantage view of the Royal Selangor Club. The club was founded in 1884 and originally served as a meeting place for high ranked and educated members of the British colonial society. Selangor is the name of the state in which the capital - Kuala Lumpur is located.
10 minutes drive from the Independence Square is South East Asia's highest revolving restaurant. Enjoy a sky dining buffet featuring traditional local Malay food and desserts with 360° views (4pm table reservation).
From the revolving restaurant, you will have a vantage view of the Merdeka 118 (Independence Tower). Topped with a massive 160-meter spire, the tower is still under construction.
When completed in end 2026, it will be the world's second-tallest structure, surpassing the Tokyo Skytree at 634 meters.
Next stop is the KL (Television) Tower. Observation deck tickets are INCLUDED for you to admire the stunning skyline of Kuala Lumpur, at a height of over 900 feet.
Next stop is the base of Petronas Twin Towers, where you can take photos of the famous Petronas Mercedes-AMG F1 car replica at the gift shop.
