Trip Details

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Kuala Lumpur and then drive to Malacca, one of Malaysia's most historic cities.

After a 2-hour drive, we'll arrive at the old town, where we'll take a guided tour of the historic center of Malacca. We'll start by visiting St. Peter's Church, the oldest Roman Catholic church in Malaysia. Afterwards, we'll learn more about the Portuguese legacy in this former colony at the Santiago Gate, the only remaining vestige of the fortress of A Famosa.

The next point we'll visit will be the Malacca Museum and the Red Square, one of the most beautiful squares in the city. Amongst the different crimson-colored monuments, the Christ Church particularly stands out. The perfect place to discover more about Malacca's passionate history!

We'll then recharge our batteries with a traditional Malaysian lunch at a local restaurant. After eating, we'll then drive to Jonker Street, Malacca's shopping street, and pass by the Cheng Hoon Teng Temple, the oldest Buddhist shrine in Malaysia.

We'll end the tour with a walk along the river, from where we'll return to Kuala Lumpur. Arrival at your hotel is scheduled for 10 hours after pickup.

Tour without Lunch

If you prefer to eat on your own in Malacca, you can select the option without lunch. In this case, we'll give you an hour of free time to eat while the rest of the group is at the designated restaurant.
