    Queueing for the bus could be better managed. We were informed that the bus is numbered but we cld not see any number on the bus. The tour assistant cld also be more polite when asking passengers to move from their seats as they were not seated in their designated area. The stop at the Palace gate was uneventful, we cld not see anything but the Palace gates only. The views of Petronas twin towers & KL Tower were magnificent. The narration at times was not in synch with the places of interest as the bus passed by. Overall, it was quite fun for first time visitors. Thank you.

    Definitely worth a visit, fun for all ages. All the staff were amazing!! We tried to book in person for a couple of days at the towers but sold out. Only way in was booking tickets via trip.com and the prices were the same!

    The place isn't particularly big, but it's still quite fun. I'd recommend going there; they have themed events during festivals, and the large swimming pool has entertainment at certain times, which is quite enjoyable.

    I stayed in room 401 and it had an amazing view of the Chew Jetties! It’s also in a good location and walkable to many other sightseeing places nearby. There’s also a lot of good restaurants around and at night lots of good street food across the hotel.

    This place was worth visiting and has been a great experience. The conditions may need some upkeep and prices of food can be reduced but overall enjoyed the experience.

    This was a nearly perfect trip. With the insurance premium of 2,260 yuan, we achieved a cost of more than 4,000 yuan. Usually, there are time limits for one-day and half-day tours, but buying a package ticket on Ctrip broke the time limit. The staff member who connected with Ctrip's Sky Mirror was a little sister. She was beautiful and kind, and provided thoughtful service. She helped to provide pick-up and drop-off for our tour guide Akai. He was thoughtful and professional, and was especially good at guiding children. He took us hiking in the mangroves and gave us an in-depth understanding of the mangrove ecology. If the children can communicate in English, they can also discuss and communicate with the English tour guide in the scenic area. When the children were tired, they were like big brothers. We encouraged them, and the time for Sekinchan, the fishing boats in the fishing village, and the wishing tree was perfect. The kids loved eating, so we took them to a special mango meal. Worried about being late for feeding eagles and watching fireflies, we took a detour. He was a very professional driver and guide. The kids wanted to eat roadside squid, and he found it for them regardless of time. The Sky Mirror trip was perfect and a place worth visiting. The photos we took were absolutely beautiful. I'd like to express my special thanks to the attentive and considerate young lady, the professional Akai, and the boat crew who took us on the boat trip. I'm especially grateful to the Sky Mirror photographer, who is truly professional!

    Batu Caves is a breathtaking cultural and natural wonder just outside Kuala Lumpur, and a must-visit for anyone exploring Malaysia! Towering over the entrance is the majestic golden statue of Lord Murugan, standing guard beside the iconic rainbow-colored staircase—272 steps leading to awe-inspiring limestone caves and sacred Hindu temples. The main cave, Cathedral Cave, is massive and filled with natural skylights and spiritual serenity.
