City Orientation

Take in its main landmarks from the ultra-modern Petronas Twin Towers to the opulent Jamek Mosque and the majestic Lake Gardens. Guided by your driver and local expert you are sure to discover the true beauty of the city.


Marvel at the immense scale of the Petronas Twin Towers. For six years after its construction this mega-structure held the record for the world’s tallest building and is a must see for any visitor to Kuala Lumpur. Dominating the skyline of the business district, it is a symbol of Malaysia’s economic growth and offers visitors the perfect photo opportunity.


Visit one of Malaysia’s most significant landmarks. Merdeka Square (literally Independence square) is still the scene of great national pride and the spot where the Malaysian flag was first raised following its separation from the British Empire. Soak up more of this country’s rich history and heritage at the national museum and witness the extravagance of the Royal Palace. Continue this jam-packed tour with a stop at the intricate Jamek Mosque, which combines both Moorish and Mughal architecture to striking effect. Make a stop at a renowned jewelry designer to admire the skill and craftsmanship of this traditional industry and relax in the idyllic Lake Gardens as you reflect on all that Kuala Lumpur has to offer.
Enchanting Fireflies


Amongst the hustle and bustle of Kuala Lumpur it is easy to forget that Malaysia is home to some of the most beautiful scenery and diverse wildlife on the planet. Discover this other side to the country on this trip to Kuala Selangor, a small village well known for the biodiversity of its mangrove forest. Dine in a local restaurant by the river front before boating upstream to watch the breathtaking spectacle of thousands of fireflies sparkling in the thick mangrove along both sides of the river banks.


Explore kilometers of unspoiled jungle, teeming with wildlife and come face to face with some of Malaysia’s most famous animal inhabitants. Your expert local guide will take you through the jungle trail in search of the silver leaf monkeys who patrol the tree tops, herons and egrets in the sky and lakes and the lizards, crabs and mudskippers that move through the mangrove.


It is not just the wildlife that attracts visitors to Kuala Selangor. Held in high importance by centuries of rulers, it has been the scene of many battles and the remnants of “Fort Altingsburg”, built to defend the town from sea bound invaders provide a fascinating insight into past colonial conflicts. Further stops the British-built lighthouse and the royal mausoleum are not to be missed.


After a day of jungle exploring, relax with a delicious dinner in a top local restaurant on the river front before boating upstream for a truly unforgettable experience to witness Kuala Selangor´s famous fireflies illuminating the dusk sky.
