Little India, Brickfields alone was worth the trip, but combined with KLCC Park & Petronas Towers fountain show this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.

Kuala Lumpur is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Merdeka Square. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.

Booked this as a family of 4 trip and it was well paced. Merdeka Square in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.
