Gondola ride, though not comparable to what we find in Switzerland was enjoyable as well. The Chinese temple tour was nice. I suggest making this a 9-hr. event to help tourists breathe a bit easier. Else the rush kills some of the fun.”

14.Genting Highland Tour with SkyWorld Theme Park

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 17 reviews · 8 - 9 hours · from $119

Ride the Awana SkyWay, visit Chin Swee Caves Temple, spend time at Genting SkyWorlds, and pass the casino and Premium Outlets on an 8 to 9 hour trip from Kuala Lumpur. English-speaking driver support, hotel pickup, cable cars, and theme park entry are included, but weather and tight timing can affect the day.

“Honestly super disappointed, booked the last “solo-traveller” spot for this tour so thought it’d be a great way to meet new people whilst exploring Genting. Both the temple & cable car was amazing, however SkyWorld theme park is an absolute waste of time and money. I also think it’d be more cost efficient to just get a bus over to Genting rather than this tour itself, but honestly you could just do yourself a favour and skip it completely!”
