Nice experience! smooth transaction booking with Klook. Select the ticket, time slots to purchase, then redeem the entrance ticket at the counter. Our kids enjoyed it so much for a weekend escape.

It's a good idea to take a sightseeing bus to go around the city when you go to Kuala Lumpur for the first time. Be careful not to be hit by branches when sitting on the second floor. The seats on the second floor of the bus are old and dirty. You can decide for yourself or sit on the lower floor. 👍🏻
