Here, guests pass the Melaka Museum complex and see Stadthuys and Christ Church (closed on Mondays).

The tour concludes with a 90-minute walk along the Malacca River, a historic trade route during the 15th-century Malacca Sultanate. After the river stroll, the tour returns to Kuala Lumpur for drop-off at the original pickup locations around 6 PM, depending on traffic.
