Why China Town & Historic City Centre?

We chose Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown and City Centre because as the birthplace of Kuala Lumpur they represent the true heart of the city's diverse culinary scene. This area is a melting pot of Malay, Chinese, and Indian influences, where age-old family run hawker stalls sit alongside heritage shophouses and bustling markets, colourful street art filled lanes and so much more. Visit local temples alongside food stalls to understand the religion, history and good culture of the area, the old Central Market as well as bakeries, tea shops and historic cafes. The vibrant streets, rich history, and mouth watering street food make it a must-visit destination for any food lover.

No trip to Chinatown is complete without exploring Petaling Street, famous for its street vendors and hidden food gems. In the City Centre, you'll experience the contrast of historic eateries and modern flavors set against the backdrop of KL’s iconic skyline. During your tour, our expert guides will share fascinating stories about the area’s history, food culture, and local traditions.

By the end of the tour, you’ll have a deep appreciation for Kuala Lumpur’s incredible food scene, a satisfied palate, and plenty of insider tips on where to eat next!

You must book directly on our website. We do not accept cash payments. Our online payment is safe, secured and SSL protected.

WHY DO WE NEED TO PAY A BOOKING FEE?

The booking fee that you have to pay is to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.

FOREIGN TRANSACTION FEES

A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us your bank statement and we will refund as a gesture of good will.
