What you'll do

Far beyond the skyscrapers and buzzing nightlife of Malaysia’s capital city, you’ll get an accelerated introduction to Kuala Lumpur, from its tranquil inner-city parks to its incredible street food. Learn about KL’s history with a look at her grand colonial buildings or visit the city’s temples and mosques, crammed shoulder to shoulder in Chinatown. Get food recommendations from your local host along the way as you pass off-the-beaten-track neighborhoods and market stalls, like Brickfields, known locally as the ‘little India’. The aromas of Kuala Lumpur’s mix of Malay, Chinese and Indian influenced food will make it easy to understand why eating is a favorite pastime in Malaysia.

Where you’ll go

With your host at the helm, you’ll get to grips with Kuala Lumpur – specifically the central city areas famed for fantastic food and shopping. There’s nowhere better to start than the Central Market and we’d recommend heading out on foot to avoid the traffic jams, characteristic of KL. The 452m-high Petronas Towers are impossible to resist and are just nearby. The Iranian-tiled façade of the Islamic Arts Museum is beautiful and certainly worth a quick snap. From there, you can visit Chinatown if you’d like to see some of KL’s colorful domes, mosques and temples. The National Mosque of Malaysia, Merdeka Square and the Sultan Abdul Samad Building – three of KL’s best known landmarks are easily combined if you have them on your must-see list.
