Great trip

John_N, Jun 2023

Johnson the guide was excellent and everything ran like clockwork. A really good day out! We saw everything we wanted!

Efficient way to see Malaka from KL

Mike_D, May 2023

Great guide keeps things moving and provides narrative. It’s 2-3 hours to Malaka so much of the 9 hour day is driving. At Malaka you walk with the guide for awhile then on your own after lunch. We had a small group - only about 13. More time in Malaka would be useful but would make for a long day.

It was fine for transportation

Sarah_H, May 2023

This tour was fine. Having transportation was nice but the guide couldn't really answer questions outside of the stories he already had planned to tell us. You do get free time which is good for shopping. Lunch was mediocre and it was awkward that they split up the solo travelers on purpose. If you can, I would take a day trip on your own and book a separate walking tour.

Very nice tour in Malaca

Cristina_L, May 2023

Our Guide – Johnson – was a great entertainer, very knowledgeable and professional. Top driver as well. One thing to improve could be the lunch service. Food was ok, but a bit in a rush. Probably is the local standard though.

Learned a lot

Philip_S, May 2023

The guide was very informative and helpful It was a pity that because the trip was on a Monday and a lot of things were closed

Great day

NADER_T, May 2023

Very good Tour. Highly recommend to spend a day with them. Communication was thorough and precise. Provided all the required information the day prior to the tour. IVY tour is very organized, they have a really good people. The day tour to Melaka was very good. Lunch was great. Sceneries were fantastic. Learning Melaka’s histories during Portuguese colonization followed by Dutch and British were very informative. Jonson the tour guide was fantastic. Really informative with a lot of great information to share. Recommend this Tour 100% percent.

Beautiful experience

Rhonda_S, May 2023

Great experience. Friendly and informative tour guide and pilot. The tour bus was comfy and clean along with an amazing local lunchtime.

Wonderful world of Malacca

Jacqueline_B, May 2023

Love the scenic view, would recommend this tour to family and friends. Tour guide was friendly and courteous and I am glad to sign up for tours while I am here for the first time

Malaka day trip

Tiffany_G, May 2023

Great tour for the money and Melaka is beautiful. Awesome day trip! Great lunch as well. Well recommend it to others

It was quite good experience

Suru_h, Apr 2023

This tour was quite insightful . Special thanks to our drivers for the safe comfortable and enjoyable trip. Our guide Johnson gave us good overview about history of Malaka but would definitely recommend to stay there at least one night because we went there during holiday and all museums were closed. Also we couldn’t see sunset and beautiful night of the city.

Excellent tour!

petros_p, Apr 2023

It's an amazing city of Malaysia!!it seems like latin America, Europe.it has a very different character than the other cities in Indochina.

A must see!!!

Cynthia_G, Apr 2023

The driver was punctual. Bring a jacket the bus was freezing. They have bottled water. Driver was knowledgeable. A very nice tour loved the town so much to see! If you are into street art turn off Harmony and check the side streets out. Would recommend and return 👌

Fun and Educational

PatrickL, Mar 2023

A worthwhile interesting tour to learn something about the Malacca past with its western colonial history that created it's present cultural diversity. The tour guide did a very good job in providing the city setting and it's historical backgrounds.

relaxing tour

Sam_H, Mar 2023

Great comfortable coach. Steven was a very informative guide and pleasant. Thanks you for a nice relaxing tour.

Excellent tour with knowledgeable guide

Roman_C, Mar 2023

Superb tour. Great guide great lunch and great value for money. Weather was great also and we got to learn something about the fantastic history of Melaka

Nadia is #1 :)

Ivan_R, Mar 2023

Although the weather was not with us (raining the whole day), the trip was worth it. It was well-organized and interesting. The tour guide (Nadia) was strict on time, which I particularly liked. There was enough free time as well as enough / not too much time on the different places where we stopped.

A Great Day in Melaka

Julie_W, Mar 2023

I had a great day with Nadia. First, it is difficult to get tours in Kuala Lumpur when you are solo. Not with this one. It didn’t charge me double which I appreciate. The pick up was seamless and the bus trip down to Melaka was pleasant apart from the AC being too cold or too hot. The time at each site was good. Nadia was efficient when it came to keeping the passengers on time. Great information was given about the history and culture of Malaysia and Melaka. A great day!

Wonderful experience

Jose_P, Feb 2023

The tour was perfect! Clean bus , good driver and safe! Mr Stephen our guide was very knowledgeable and took care of the group . Highly recommended!

Tour to Malacca

Vladimir_B, Feb 2023

Our tour guide Nadya was absolutely amazing, combining deep knowledge of Malaysian history with wonderful organisational skills. I wish we could have her as our tour guide for the rest of our stay in Kuala Lumpur. Vlad and Alex.

Definitely worth experiencing!!!

Cassandra_P, Jan 2023

Nadia was an excellent tour guide. Her knowledge, professionalism, and friendly personality were the perfect combination. Nadia truly cared that the guests on the tour were enjoying themselves. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in history and exploring new areas.

Melaka 2022

Judy_P, Dec 2022

Visiting a UNESCO site was surreal. Beautiful city with lots of history. Our tour guide Amar S. made it more memorable by relating the history was very informative. Will definitely recommend to family and friends for their visits with this tour company. Awesome job.

Go..

Jocelyn_C, Nov 2022

Makpal, our guide, was brilliant. Informative, patient, funny and helpful. He ensured we all had a great day.

Definitely worth seeing Malaka

ADELE_H, Nov 2022

We were in Malaka for 2 days(unplanned) before the tour day, so we joined the tour when they arrived... Melaka is a very nice touristy town, with lots of little nooks to eat and explore... day and night. You can walk to most places. The tour was nice as it highlighted key areas and filled in the rich historical information behind Malaka's origin. Our guide Lucas, was brilliant. The lunch was great too. Between three tours we did in Malaysia, this one was the best.

Great Malaccan Tour

w49grzy2b9, Oct 2022

McPally, our tour guide, was exceptional! The tour was interesting. We enjoyed our local lunch. The bus was comfortable. Highly recommended!

Worthwhile Day Trip from KL

Rokas_D, Jun 2022

In reading the history of Malaysia, the city of Melaka came up multiple times. Given the city’s importance in Malaysian history as a trade port and the capital of the Melaka Sultanate, I had to see it while I was visiting! My tour guide, Mr. Avali, was humorous, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about Melaka and Malaysia as a whole. The city itself isn’t that big, so a day trip is more than enough time to see all the main sites, and Mr. Avali will make sure you see them! Overall, expect to be gone for most of the day, but trust me, it’s worth it! 5/5 stars, definitely a must do if you have a week or more in Malaysia and are a history buff like myself!

Melaka City amazing

Uriel_C, May 2023

Melaka es una locación muy bonita, con mucha historia y mucha cultura. Me gustó el tour. Tiene muchas religiones que conviven entre ellas sin atacarse, la comida del lugar, sobre todo la de Malasia es muy rica y no se diga se sus dulces de coco.

Auch wir wollten auf Empfehlung die älteste Stadt von Malaysia sehen

Olaf_H, Feb 2023

wir sind mit einer grossen Gruppe im Bus gefahren ,der Guide hat unglaublich viel erzählt ,da wir aber nicht soviel Englisch können,haben wir nicht viel verstanden ,wir sind mehrere Punkte angefahren , hatten aber immer nur wenig Zeit und weiter ging es,das Mittagessen war sehr speziell und wohl typisch malayisch,wir konnten dann noch etwas bummeln und shoppen , die Geschäfte waren aber sehr preisintensiv ,diese Tour hat uns nicht überzeugt
