    Good day

    dougsterquinn, Mar 2026
    A+++ had a good day from start to finish, our driver was friendly and helpful.. Wuld gladly use again

    A great day day!

    Our brilliant guide Nishan collected us right in time and gave us some I formation about KL on our way to Batu Caves. When we arrived he took photos of us and gave us plenty of time to climb the steps and see the temple. Then on to Genting Highlands. Nishant gave us lots of info and then we had lots of time again to enjoy our visit. The Batu Caves are worth doing, very interesting! And the steps aren’t so bad. Genting Highlands is a revelation- the cable car affords fab views even through mist. The Chinese Temple is a must. At the top we skipped the Casino and theme park, then came down and had food and did a little shopping. A great day out and good value. Thank you Nishant!

    Great tour!

    Great time spent with Vishnu, our driver and the tour guide. The tour gives adequate time in each stop to enjoy with family. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Kuala Lumpur for the first time.

    A day trip

    GavinTorinno_H, Feb 2026
    Mr. Akmal being so friendly, he took me and family for a day trip and giving explanation too in Batu Caves and Genting highland.

    Must do when in KL

    AFRAH_A, Feb 2026
    Pickup wasn’t on time because of KL horrible traffic jam in morning but we could manage visiting both places . The driver Mr. John , was very professional & clear about the delay so it went well at the end of the day. If it’s your first time in KL I would suggest to do Batu Cave on another day since both places requires time.

    A day well spent.

    Suraj_N, Jan 2026
    Very nice trip. Very friendly and knowledgeable driver (Rudran). Scenic drive on the way. A day well spent.

    Beautiful day

    Dolores_M, Jan 2026
    This was such a wonderful experience because this was a private tour and our driver was so good, nice and informative.

    Indescribable day out!!!!

    Andrew_M, Jan 2026
    Firstly, thank you to our driver Illyas who was patient with us all day, even when we were late. Batu caves are worth the climb up the 272 steps, just to appreciate the whole place. Then into the cable car to Gentling heights. We got there around 12:30pm and only waited about 5 mins. The views are out of this world. The journey takes approximately 15 mins, and is over before you know it. The resort itself is mind blowing. The fact that your 6000ft up and there’s designer outlets, indoor theme park and numerous places to eat, just doesn’t compute. The value for money of this trip was well worth it. If you wanted to do it yourself you could probably save a few pounds. However door to door service, a local driver who was more than happy to answer all our questions and the comfort of an air con 4x4. No brainer. Thanks.

    Ever smiling driver/tour guide

    sam_w, Jan 2026
    We really enjoyed the trip, the ever smiling driver/tour guide was all time ready to help us, had arrived little late but he made sure we were on time and he actually somehow gave us even more time to view and take pictures. We made it successfully to all stops and my wife and I were happy. He went out of his way as I requested him that I needed to do a little shopping. Thank you Mr Ramana.

    Batu Caves and Genting tour

    Ramnath_K, Jan 2026
    Both Batu caves and Genting are worth visiting. Be it the temple within a natural cave or the cable car and resort high up in the mountains, it mesmerizes. The temple is serene, peaceful inside with many f&b options outside. The cable car is a must try for the excellent view and scenic surroundings. The facility is fantastic with excellent service. It is an engineering marvel. On top is the Skywards Resort, which was a surprise and a definite place to visit. We used Skyline Holidays who sent Visnu to take us on our tour. He was very polite, knowledgeable and patient with us when we took our time exploring. His instructions were clear and suggestions excellent. For example, he suggested we visit the Chinese temple first before going to resort on the Genting cable car, as the temple can get crowded very fast. Excellent service!!

    Great experience

    amrutha_k, Dec 2025
    We had a wonderful experience with Raj. He went the extra mile by explaining the rich history and culture of Malaysia, as well as pointing out important places along the way. He was thoughtful and patient, even stopping at McDonald’s for a kids’ break and running over time without hesitation. Raj’s professionalism, kindness, and dedication made our trip truly memorable. Highly recommend him as the best driver!

    Me and my husband have just spent an amazing day out. Our driver ILIYAS was well spoken told us a lot about the history and took us to the fabulous monuments . He was adaptable and we appreciated the time he took with us today. We couldn’t recommend anyone any better. We will be back for more adventures but we will bring more of our family to enjoy too.

    Isaac_W, Oct 2025
    Ramana was a fantastic driver! Note that this is not a guided tour but the ideal way to explore Batu Caves and Genting at your own leisure with a driver that takes you to both locations. This is the best way to see Batu Caves & Genting as your driver leaves you to explore/shop etc on your own without a big group of people. Perfect!

    This was worth every penny and more. We had a private car with a very good driver. We enjoyed all the locations we visited. If we had a way to give more than 5 stars, we would do that.

    Batu Caves and Genting Highlands visit

    Daisy_P, Oct 2025
    An adventure of being in clouds with the cable car. The service is efficient however be prepared for long queues over weekends and holidays for the Genting Highlands cable car. I spent about 30 minutes following the queue on a Saturday. I was worth the wait. The Chinese temple is magnificent with amazing views of Genting town. There is also the outlet mall that’s a shoppers paradise for you to enjoy. The visit to Batu Caves requires some levels of fitness to climb the steep 272 stairs to the cave to visit the temple. There are many resting spots to pause as you climb if needed. It truly is worth a visit. The main temple has a further 40 to 50 small steps inside of the cave. The energy and vibration is compelling, I loved it. Wear comfy walking shoes and comfortable clothes for the trip. I can also recommend to do Batu Caves early in the morning to avoid the extreme heat and humidity. 🥳🥳🥳

    Batu Caves & Genting Highlands

    Malti_L, Sep 2025
    Our guide helpful, we enjoyed our day. At the top of the skyway, we had a nice lunch in the Plaza. Just be weary at the Batu Caves that the monkeys don't hop onto your backpack when walking up the steps.

    Christina_B, Sep 2025
    The pictures show a glass bottom cable car, but that is not what you are going to get a ticket for. The chin swee temple was nice. The shopping center was cool. Overall I would recommend just getting a taxi and save yourself some money.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Thanks for effort to leave review to us madam, There will be much complicated to do by the taxi services because they don't guide and they wont stop at the other attraction , they price will be higher if want to stop at other attraction if use taxi. We have posted the normal cable car picture if want to have the glass can request we can arrange it.

    Caves and highlands

    Ali_G, Aug 2025
    Nice tour. Ilyas helped us with some picture taking at the caves. If you have kids you want to take a full day tour of the highlands since there is much to do up there. This was not a guided tour which was ok for us--just setting expectations.
