I designed the Kuala Lumpur shore excursions itinerary for cruise passengers with one objective, to give the best productive tour. In addition, the plan is to show tourists the main highlight of Kuala Lumpur city in a relaxing mood. Indeed its provide privacy, comfortable and safety suitable for honeymooner, the elderly and family with Children.
Kuala Lumpur cruise terminal, known as Port Klang situated in Selangor state, about 60km from the city. For tourists to have a fantastic tour experience in a limited time during the cruise berth, passenger ships need to have an efficient mode of transportation. Hired an experienced Taxi driver for Kuala Lumpur cruise excursions is the best option compare to cruise organized tours.

Kuala Lumpur Shore Excursions Itinerary
The itinerary below is a suggestion activity tourists can do during Kuala Lumpur cruise excursions. Cruise passenger has an option to opt-in the recommend itinerary or create own plan ideal to your requirement.
Batu Caves
If tourists opt-in to my itinerary, Batu Caves will be our first stop during Kuala Lumpur shore excursions. Batu Caves is a 400 million years old limestone hills. Initially, the Temuan tribe Aboriginal people used the main caves and few other small caves as shelter when hunting. Then, in 1891, Indian businessman Mr. K. Thamboosamy Pillay decided to establish Murugan Temple in one of the Cathedral Caves. Today Murugan Temple is well known as the most prominent Hindu temple in Malaysia.
PETRONAS Twin Towers
Petronas is Malaysia Oil Company known as Petroliam Nasional Berhad. The most beautiful modern towers in Malaysia. Besides taking a photo, tourist also can do little walk at KLCC Park. I bring my guest to the best place to take a picture. Standing at 452 meters,
Visiting level 86 observation deck and sky bridge require separate entrance ticket. Please book entrance ticket in advance few weeks before the tour. Online ticket booking available using this link https://www.petronastwintowers.com.my/tickets
National Palace
In Malaysia, King is called as Yang di-Pertuan Agong or His Majesty. The uniqueness of the monarchy system in Malaysia is the position of the King based on the rotation system between the nine Sultan and the ruler. Every Sultan or ruler of nine states has the opportunity to become King for five years.
Independent Square
Independent square or Dataran Merdeka is the place where the last Union Jack flag was brought down at 1201am on 31st August 1957. Here tourist can see well-preserved heritage building such as Sultan Abdul Samad, old High Court, former Post Office and also an Anglican church.
Kampung Baru
Established in late 1800 by British, Kampung Baru known initially as Malay Agriculture Settlement. The main reason Kampung Baru exist because British desperately need a place for farming. The population in Kuala Lumpur grew tremendously almost to fivefold in short time due to Tin mining industry. Kampung Baru the best place to try Malays food such Nasi Lemak or Nasi Campur.
Central Market Kuala Lumpur
During Kuala Lumpur shore excursions, we stop at the Central Market or China Town to give an opportunity for cruise passenger relax for a Coffee break or buy some local souvenir. Initially, Central Market is an open market selling the perishable item such Fish and Vegetable. Today Central Market well know as local craft and product market.
Little India Brickfield
The history of Brickfield began when a major fire hit Kuala Lumpur in 1881, which destroyed wood-based buildings. As prevention, the British administration issued a new regulation for all buildings in Kuala Lumpur to be built using bricks. Chinese captain Yap Ah Loy saw a brick-business opportunity. He set up a furnace to make blocks. Brickfield gets its name from ready-to-process brick that has been stacked on the field for the drying process. Due to traffic conditions, we only drive thru the area during Kuala Lumpur shore excursions.

Meeting Point
Boustead cruise center is the main port for cruise ships to dock. Apart from Boustead, the North and West ports are also used as alternative ports during the peak season, starting in October to February each year. When two large cruise ships arrive simultaneously on the same day, one will likely anchor in the North or West ports. Both of these ports are commercial ports not built for cruise ships. Only buses carrying tourists for cruise organized tours are allowed to enter.
If the ship anchor at North or West Port, cruise passengers need to take a free shuttle bus from the ship to the main gate. Your tour guide or driver will wait at the main port gate. Look for your name on the paging board.
