Experience the best of Malaysia in one amazing day with this Batu Caves, Genting Highlands & Kuala Lumpur City Tour. Explore sacred temples, enjoy cool mountain air, shop at world-class outlets, and capture Kuala Lumpur’s most famous landmarks — all in one unforgettable journey from the city.


Your adventure begins with a morning hotel pickup in Kuala Lumpur between 7:15 AM and 7:45 AM. Meet your friendly English-speaking driver-guide and relax in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle as you travel to your first stop — Batu Caves, Malaysia’s most iconic Hindu temple complex. Be greeted by the magnificent 140-foot golden statue of Lord Murugan, then climb the 272 colorful steps into the limestone cave temple. Admire ancient formations, vibrant shrines, and sweeping views of the city below. Take time for memorable photos and light souvenir shopping before continuing the journey.


Next, head to the cool hills of Genting Highlands, about an hour’s drive from Kuala Lumpur. En route, stop at the Awana Skyway Cable Car Station and glide over lush tropical rainforest on a spectacular 10-minute cable-car ride. Enjoy panoramic mountain views and, midway, visit the serene Chin Swee Caves Temple, famous for its intricate Chinese architecture and tranquil surroundings.


Note: In the event of an Awana Skyway maintenance period, the cable-car ride and Chin Swee Temple visit will be skipped. The tour will proceed directly by road to Genting Highlands.


At the summit, explore the excitement of Genting Highlands, Malaysia’s premier mountain resort. Wander through the vibrant SkyAvenue Mall, filled with restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment venues. Enjoy outlet shopping at Genting Premium Outlets, or try your luck at Casino de Genting, Malaysia’s only legal casino. Families and thrill-seekers can add fun at the Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park (optional, ticket not included). Enjoy leisure time for shopping, dining, or sightseeing before regrouping for your return trip to Kuala Lumpur.


In the afternoon, enjoy a panoramic Kuala Lumpur city tour highlighting the capital’s most iconic attractions. See the grand King’s Palace (Istana Negara), the heroic National Monument, and the historic Merdeka Square surrounded by colonial architecture. Admire the beautiful Sultan Abdul Samad Building and end your journey with a photo stop at the world-famous Petronas Twin Towers, an unmissable symbol of modern Malaysia.


Return to your hotel around 6:30 PM – 7:00 PM, completing a full day of discovery through Malaysia’s cultural heritage, natural beauty, and vibrant cityscape.
