It is absolutely worth it! - Really a nice experience, I would do it again very gladly. Then our guide Siva was a really friendly, patient and very polite person. Despite speaking little English Siva was very friendly in explaining calmly and several times every detail! Thank you so much!

Day trip to Cameron... - Day trip to Cameron Highlands was excellent! Tour stops were appropriate time at each. The butterfly garden has much more than butterflies which was great! If you are looking for a walking tour of the Boh plantation, you will not be able to do that on this trip due to timing. But you will get to do factory tour and sampling if you would like. Our driver/guide Mr Balan was great! He showed us lots of local spots and food and even got us some durian on the way back! Highly recommend!

Fabulous way to see the Cameron Highlands - We were lucky to be the only two on this tour so we had a great time. Patrick our driver/ guide was very knowledgable and friendly. We learnt lots about daily life etc in Malaysia as we drove along comparing all aspects to life in Britain. The tea plantation was beautiful and we also stopped at a Strawberry farm , butterfly farm and a Buddhist Temple. It is a long day and the windy road up to the Highlands is not for those who suffer motion sickness! There is however , so much to see and this is a great way to see and experience the Cameron Highlands particularly if you get a great driver like Patrick .

Amazing day trip - The tour was really great, especially the tea plantage and the view. In the beginning we stopped at a waterfall which was amazing. If you have a day left and want a great experience, you should definitely book this trip.

Cameron Highlands - The tea plantation was definitely worth visiting, scenery beautiful. However if you are planning a day trip from Kuala Lumpur avoid weekends and public holidays as the road usage is extreme and can add an additional 2 hours to what is already a long day

cameron highlands - Our driver Patrick was excellent very safe on the road good chat great lunch provided and he was very informative, the problem was the tour content, the lavender farm was closed, BOH tea was closed and the butterfly farm was disturbing to say the least, in the poor way the animals were penned. So other than the 13 hours drive and nice scenery its not worth the time as really there is no tour content

Worst tour I've ever done - This tour was the worst I’ve ever been on, for two reasons: the tour services and the destination. The Tour: This is advertised as a guided tour through tea plantations and other cute destinations. It is not. It is simply a driver, no tour or other information – and the driver was awful. He didn’t know which destinations we were supposed to go to, we had to tell him multiple times. He kept looking at google maps or checking with his boss that he was in the right place and still got lost several times along the way or wasn’t sure how to access the attractions at our stops. We were starving by the time lunch came around 7 hours after our tour start and he seemed confused and annoyed when we asked if we could have water. He drove so fast and erratically that we got nauseous several times. Additionally, his English was quite poor, so it made it even more difficult to communicate about these confusing aspects. Other reviews seem to mention a nice guide that takes you around. This was not our experience at all, it felt like they didn’t have anyone available, and they got a random driver to fill in and who had no idea what was going on. The destination: Cameron Highlands is advertised as a nice tea planation tour with some nice nature stops. Each stop was misleading or disappointing. The lavender garden is a small flower garden that you have to pay to get into. The butterfly garden is more like a small zoo that clearly doesn’t treat its animals very well. And you have to pay to get into it. The market is small and filled with the same knock off items at any market in the area. The strawberry farm is a mostly dirt patch with hydroponic strawberries that you have to pay to pick yourself. The tea plantation was the most disappointing. There was no tour or information, it is simply a small visitor centre with a lookout point for pictures. The traffic in Cameron Highlands is also unbearable. All stops are located within a few kilometres of each other, and it still took hours to navigate because of the congestion. We knew it would be a long drive from KL to the Highlands, but didn’t expect how bad it would be when we got there. The whole tour took a little over 12 hours and 9 of them were spent sitting in the car. In summary, the tour description and services were misleading and poorly executed, and Cameron Highlands proved to be a massive waste of time and money. Zero stars and a refund if I could.
