Would definitely recommend - This was an excellent food tour! We only had One day in KL and this was a perfect way to spend it. The variety of food was great and the guide was very knowledgable teaching us about the history of KL.

Great !! - Uncle Sam took us around this morning… easy meeting place at the main front door of the Central market . Great tour ( tiring in the heat). Sam was great catering to all food requirements. We tried SO MANY things that I could never remember them all. Great explanations about everything.. AND Sam bought my daughter a lovely cake for her birthday… lovely thing to do. Do I recommend??? Oh yes

Left feeling fat & happy - Kiran was an amazing guide, she provided information not only on the food but on the culture and history as well. Her wit and charm enhanced the experience a great deal and her immense love for the cuisine was apparent at every stop along the way. Now, onto the good stuff, THE FOOD. I did not have a single thing I did not enjoy and despite my immense amount of research on KL’s “top foodie spots” she took us to an area I hadn’t even considered going to and WOW was it worth it.

Unique cuisine - This tour offers some of the real deal tastes of Malaysia. The food is truly unique with flavors that are indescribable yet delicious. Walking around Petaling street market to try the different foods is a lot of fun, and the tour ends back at the central market with even more foods & shops to check out. My guide was Sam and he was super down to earth as well as knowledgeable and friendly.
