⭐️ 214 ToursByLocals tours conducted. ⭐️ 156 reviews with average 4.9/5.0. ⭐️ Average 3 hours message response time. I provide ONE-DAY or MULTIPLE-DAY tours in Penang, Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, Cameron Highlands, Ipoh, and Langkawi. My guests include passengers from cruise ships such as Norwegian, Silversea, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Millennium, Azamara, Oceania, Seabourn, Holland America, Princess, Cunard, and Azamara and free independent travellers arriving by flights. I offer TOUR GUIDING SERVICES + TRANSPORTATION in Penang, Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur etc. With a vehicle, it is more convenient and enjoyable to experience the cities in the shortest time. Many places of interest such as Penang Hill, Kek Lok Si Temple, Batu Caves, and Putrajaya are outside the cities.

Lumpur MULTI-DAY CROSS-CITY TOUR ========================== • Penang, Ipoh, Cameron Highlands, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Selangor & Malacca. • Kindly contact me for other destinations. # All tours above include tour guiding services + transportation. ADVANTAGES OF A PRIVATE TOUR: ========================== PRIVACY - The Tour Guide is all yours (vs. 40 tourists asking questions in a coach). VALUE FOR MONEY - A private tour is usually cheaper than signing up with the cruiseliner if you have 3 or more people. FLEXIBILITY - Customized itinerary to suit your interest. Let me know where you want to go. TIME-SAVING - No time-wasting waiting for strangers (imagine you follow a coach with 40 strangers). DISABLED & ELDERLY - Special arrangements for people in wheelchairs or scooters. No long-distance walking. No climbing.
