Tours of the City Walking Tours Although it is possible to walk around specific areas of Kuala Lumpur quite easily, such as China Town or Masjid Little India, the busy main roads that crisscross the city can make any attempt at a comprehensive walking tour daunting, so this is not recommended. It is much safer to use one of the many available public transport options to travel between sights. Tour East (tel: (04) 227 4522; fax: (04) 227 4755; website: www.toureast.net) offers a three-hour evening stroll and dinner tour, costing RM220 (including dinner). Running daily from January to March, the tours commence with a walk around the Central Market, culminating with a trip to the Kuala Lumpur Tower for a dinner at the revolving restaurant. Pick up and drop off at city hotels is included. Bus Tours Reliance Travel (tel: (03) 2711 1000; Fax: (03) 2710 8366; website: www.reliancetravel.com) offers Kuala Lumpur City Tours, with free pick-ups from numerous hotels throughout Kuala Lumpur. These three-hour tours cost RM30. Stops include a handicraft centre, the Golden Triangle, the National Museum, Kuala Lumpur Railway Station, Masjid Jamek, the Sultan Abdul Samad Building and the National Mosque. Reliance can also arrange airport transport and onward travel. Many hotels hold details of other city tours, as does the tourist information office (see Tourist Information). |
