NO more monkey business. - Our driver Nash was great. He explained lots of things about Malaysia.
Took us to a Batik factory where we spent $$$$. We loved the Central Market and would have spent more $$$$ if we had more time there

Excellent!!! - Excellent tour. We started at the Batu caves, then the batik shop, some other stops and at the end the Chinese town. First, the driver was punctual and keep in touch via WhatsApp, which make everything pretty smooth. I really liked it because is only around 4hrs. And in every stop you have around 20min to explore the area. Profesional service, thanks Steve!!!!

Naresh - Naresh was a ton of fun. Drove us around town. We started the morning off with Batu Caves then drove us to many different sites in KL. It was nice to have a personal driver for half a day. Plus he was entertaining and gave us info while he drove us from place to place .

NOT RECOMMENDED - The driver turned up an hour late due to encountering a traffic jam/accident. The head office was not immediately contactable because they were in a course. These are their explanations.
The Shangri- la hotel staff were of the opinion that the trip was expensive and that the company should have produced another driver immediately.
Both the driver and company were keen to pacify us with extra time, stops etc. Despite making it clear to the driver that we were now time poor and had no interest in chocolate, batik, pewter etc factories and would have to prioritise our interests, the driver still pulled up outside a batik factory.
In about 4 hours we covered about half of the stops listed in the description and dropped one passenger close to our hotel. While the driver would have continued we were over the experience and had other commitments.
Do NOT recommend.
