Malaysia · BATU CAVES TOURS
The 272 steps are free to climb; what you are paying for is the transport, the timing and someone to explain what the shrines mean. These 15 differ on whether the caves stand alone or come bundled with the city, Genting or a batik studio, and on how early they leave.
Visit Batu Caves, climb 272 steps, see Hindu shrines, and watch Malaysian batik being made on this affordable Kuala Lumpur half-day tour.

“We enjoyed our trip. Smooth pick-up and drop-off (driver agreed to drop us off at a slightly different place, which was good for us). Plenty of time at the caves. Driver was friendly local and shared her knowledge of local life, this was very interesting. If you'd like to save time, you could probably skip the factory visits, those were not as fascinating (and ended with an option to purchase goods).”
