IPOH. Private tour

Day with private tour to IPOH from Kuala lumpur. Pick up at the hotel convenient, the day before arrives the confirmation via whatsapp. We stayed with Sathesh, very kind, punctual, nice and very prepared! It also took us to the waterfalls and a beautiful temple inside a quarry that were not marked on the schedule! We also had lunch at a local place in IPOH where we ate very well and drank the famous White coffee! Highly recommended for a day out from KL
