Great stuff, Genting.

Begin your adventure with a convenient pickup from Kuala Lumpur, heading straight to the iconic Batu Caves. Here, you'll be greeted by Lord Murugan's towering 140-foot golden statue, a sight to behold. Climb the 272 colorful steps to reach the Temple Cave, where you’ll find Hindu shrines and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding area. Before you leave, stop by a local shop for unique souvenirs and traditional Malaysian snacks.

Next, head up to the cool heights of Genting Highlands via the SkyWay cable car from Awana SkyCentral station. As you glide over the lush rainforest, the views are breathtaking. Once you reach the top, explore the vibrant attractions of Genting Highlands, from the thrilling rides of Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park to the extensive shopping and dining options at SkyAvenue.

If you’re feeling lucky, try the Casino de Genting, featuring over 3000 slot machines and 500 gaming tables. Take the cable car back down and enjoy a comfortable ride back to Kuala Lumpur, arriving around 6:30 PM.
