Loved the tour, the tour guide was very informative. Butik & Pewter factory and fun. Loved the exercise of walking up so many stairs and looking at the monkeys.

Arrived there in middle of the Hindu Festival. Great if you can make it up the steps. However for the not very fit I suggest you check out the steps first, about 300, very steep incline in hot weather.

Very interesting tour, we went just before February, so it was busy with preparations for the Chinese New Year's festival.

This was a very good way to explore the area just outside of Kuala Lumpur. Definitely worth doing.

We had a very good guide with a lot of knowledge about all different subjects about Malaysia, not only about the Batu Caves. I look forward with another tour with him.

Guide was very passionate and knowledgeable. If you haven't ventured out of Kuala Lumpur's shopping malls, you MUST do a tour like this to see other aspects of the country.

Our tour guide was brilliant! He's really passionate about his country Malaysia. We had a really good time and the Batu Caves is definitely a must in KL. It's good exercise, 272 steps!

This is another must do trip whilst in and around Kuala Lumpur. It is only for the fit, though, as the climb is quite severe and there are more steps within the cave. Do it.

The Caves and the Royal Selangor factory was great. But the Batik silk cottage was a waste of time. They were just trying to sell us their wares.

The guide was very good all through the suburbs tour. I would have liked someone to tell us more information about the cave itself, or to distribute a leaflet with information for instance. Next time I travel to Malaysia, I will probably go on another tour with you. Thank you.

Definitely worth a visit. Viewing it on the internet doesn't do this trip justice. Our guide was excellent and very friendly.

Just 4 people including me on the tour. It was very small group, so there was van type of vehicle, though with A/C. Driver was not trained to give commentary so well. But it was good trip!

A must do if only for the exercise!

This was a nice tour, taking in the Pewter Factory and the Batik store. The gold statue is amazing, as was the climb up the 272 steps. In the humidity, I was drenched by the time we finished, but it was worth it. The caves were interesting and we got to have photos with some of the cheeky monkeys along the way. Whilst not totally fascinating, I would say it is a must see on a trip to Kuala Lumpur, as it's only fifteen kilometers out of town.
