You will see thousands of worshipers and tourist here especially during the annual Hindu festival, Thaipusam. The hike up the tall and lengthy stairs can be tiring (272 steps), but you will be amazed with the stunning skyline of Kuala Lumpur once you reach the top.

Kalai, our Guide was so friendly that she made us feel like a family member. We were all senior citizens but she made us very comfortable with all information about the places we visited. Thanks Viator for the arrangements.
Enjoyable

We had a nice time. The guide the driver was very knowledgeable. He gave us so many information about Malaysia and was willing to answer any question tear-gassing the culture and the history of Malaysia. He was very understanding and patient as we had our infant with us to the trip. We enjoyed and my kids loved it. They learnt many things about Malaysia and its history.
Great afternoon!
