Overview

This shared tour lasts about 10 hours and begins with pickup from selected hotels or residences in Kuala Lumpur's Golden Triangle area, requiring a minimum of two adults per booking. The first stop is a ride on the Awana Skyway cable car, the fastest and longest cable car in Asia, which travels over an ancient rainforest. The cable car ride includes a free stop at Chin Swee Station to visit the Chin Swee Temple, where the black-faced Chin Swee altar is located inside a rocky chamber. If the Awana Skyway is under maintenance or closed, the cable car will be replaced by the Genting Skyway, and the Chin Swee Temple stop will be omitted. The cable car ticket is a standard two-way gondola ticket included in the tour. After the cable car ride, the tour continues to Genting Highlands, also known as Resort World Genting, where guests have about four hours to explore the casino resort complex. Visitors can try casino games such as blackjack and roulette; however, persons under 21 years old are not allowed in the casino. The resort also features indoor and outdoor theme parks with attractions including Asia's only skydiving simulator and several rollercoasters. Guests may also shop at over 80 boutique stores. The final stop is Batu Caves, where visitors climb 272 steps guarded by a large golden statue of Murugan to reach several Hindu shrines. The climb offers panoramic views of the surrounding area. Visitors must wear appropriate clothing - no shorts or sleeveless shirts - and remove their shoes before entering the temple. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended for the climb. The tour includes an English-speaking guide and air-conditioned transportation. Theme park tickets, glass-floor gondola rides, meals, beverages, and Wi-Fi are not included. The itinerary may change during cable car maintenance periods, with the Genting Skyway replacing the Awana Skyway and the Chin Swee Temple visit skipped. Guests should bring a jacket or outerwear as the weather can be cold, especially in the evening. This is a shared (SIC) tour and may include other guests. Pickup details and times will be provided by email one day before the tour. Participants are advised to arrive at the hotel lobby at least 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time.
