What You’ll Experience

1

Little India Brickfields

Treat your feet and your taste buds to a 3.5-hour interactive walking (If drive for Private tour) tour takes you on a tasting tour through the alleys and narrow ways of Kuala Lumpur and its suburbs by foot/drive. The history of Malaysia is alive and can be experienced on a plate. Check out the Brickfields neighborhood area where there is strong Indian influence in the architecture, the music, and the food. Sample a delicious serving from a banana leaf where the food is the king without the tourist glitz. Seek out the sweet vendors where you can enjoy a fresh banana fritter, sticky sweet gulab jamu, or the local favorite: cendol (which is made of shaved ice, plum sugar, kidney beans, and coconut milk jelly!)
1 hourAdmission Ticket Free

Chinatown

Hop onto the local transport system to be swept from India to China (if by car option will be transfer by car). Bustle your way through Chinatown for a totally different vibe. Tuck in some wonderfully tasty noodles and sample some refreshing lime juice whilst taking in the action all around.
