Your experience

Hiking at Batu Caves

Experience the ultimate adventure in Malaysia with an English-guided tour to the Batu Caves and a fireflies-watching tour with round-trip hotel transfers from Kuala Lumpur.

Be amazed by the intricate Hindu shrines adorning the limestone caverns and the imposing 140-foot statue of Lord Murugan. Explore the complex of limestone caverns and its entrancing temples, each with dioramas showing mythical scenes. Once you've explored the two large chambers inside, you can venture on a side quest to the Ramayana Cave, which can be reached by crossing a short bridge. Next, you’ll return to Kuala Lumpur to visit the King’s Palace, the official residence of Malaysia’s monarch, followed by a stop at the National Mosque. Capture the striking modern architecture before heading to the historic Kuala Lumpur Railway Station, where you'll admire its unique Moorish design.

Visit Kuala Selangor for firefly watching tour

Sail down Kuala Selangor and witness the idyllic Malay village and savor an authentic seafood dinner before heading to the firefly site. As night falls, be prepared to be mesmerized by the largest colony of fireflies in the world, glistening amidst the mangrove forest's night sky. Marvel at the ability of these amazing lightning bugs to synchronize their light patterns and admire the dazzling display.
