Streetfood meets culture - made easy 4 families.

Matthias S, Jul 2025

We enjoyed an interesting, tasteful and very personal walk through KL. The mixture of authentic streetfood, insights in Chinese and Indian religion and a very modern, heartful and friendly guide made this excursion easy. Even for our two teenagers (16 and 17). We can recommend this tour absolutely.

Kristin – Eat, Pray, Walk, and Love City Tour The dedication of our tour guide, Kristin, was an unforgettable experience for us. She made the Eat, Pray, Walk, and Love city tour truly special. Her commitment and expertise were simply outstanding – she even took extra time for us beyond the scheduled hours. 5 out of 5 stars!
