Exciting, eye opening and mouth watering journey! - Mr Chua is truly experienced and amazing tourist guide with passionate and patience. He is also a good storyteller to learn about the local culture, history, especially places to find fabulous foods and best spot for photo taking. We like his delivery styles like long time old friends.

Ben is a wealth of knowledge and will provide a superb tour - whether a few hours or several days. - For 9 days in March 2025 we had the privilege of touring Malaysia with Chua Eng Han, aka, Ben. Ben and his driver picked us and our daughter-in-law's parents up at their home in Shah Alam. The 6 of us traveled to Ipoh then on to Penang where we spent 3 days. From Penang we traveled to Sekinchan then to Kuala Lumpur where we spent several days. From KL we journeyed to Putrajaya then spent our last 2 days in Malacca. Ben delivered us to KLIA and stayed there until he was sure we were checked in on our flights back to the USA. Ben commands a vast knowledge of Malaysian towns and cities, the country's historical sites and landmarks, local customs, food and cultures. He is a great conversationalist, never tiring of our questions. He has a wonderful sense of humor. I especially enjoyed learning from him about the local flowers, plants and trees.

An amazing and incredible history of Kuala Lupur and Putrajaya - An amazing experience with a very informative guide He took a lot of care to explain things to me both with religious and cultural differences.He was extremely solicitous of me as I am 78 years old checking with me if I was comfortable with the walking and the heat. I particularly appreciated it when he took us to typical restaurants and recommended typical dishes.

100% recommend! - This walking tour is a must-do while in KL. Ben is a fantastic guide and extremely knowledgeable of the diverse cultures of Malaysia. When he found out I was a foodie, he tailored the tour to include more information about local foods, where to eat, what to order, and we even sampled snacks and drinks along the way. He is also a great photographer, knowing exactly where to capture the best photos along the tour. Thanks so much, Ben!
