A private tour without a guide !!!!

This trip is sold as a private tour and private guide ( see photo) . In fact , you get only a private driver . The wording on Trip Advisor is very misleading . The driver dropped us there and showed us where to buy the tickets , if any and directed us to a restaurant. We have done many private tours which obviously include a private guide . This one was very disappointing. The driver was ok however he drives too fast on the highway and he was in a hurry to get back to KL ( up to 130kmph) ….the rickshaw tour was a ridiculous 10 mins drive … it is the first time I write a bad review … I usually gives the benefit of the doubt and don’t bother . I thought it was important other travelers know about it .

Malacca - UNESCO Heritage Site - Malaysia

A very peaceful and well designed town/ The whole place is very picturesque. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008, Malacca is famous for its unique blend of Malay, Chinese, Portuguese, Dutch, and British colonial history and culture. Some important landmarks to visit: Dutch Square (Red Square): Iconic terracotta-red Stadthuys and Christ Church A Famosa (Porta de Santiago) & St. Paul's Hill: Ruins of a 16th-century Portuguese fortress and church overlooking the city. Jonker Street (Jalan Hang Jebat): A vibrant street filled with antique shops, hip cafes, and a famous weekend night market. The place is quite warm; carry light clothing and luggage, a lot of walking to be done, and wear some comfortable shoes.

Malacca Day Trip

My day trip to Malacca was fantastic thanks to Sathesh. He showed me around the city, explained its history and culture, and made sure I got to see all the highlights. He was great company, and we had a really good time together throughout the day. His friendliness and enthusiasm made the experience memorable.
