Reviews from Real Guests:

Trip.com User: A perfect place to spend time with family or friends. I would avoid weekends if possible, unless for those who like massive crowds. Also, if one wishes to see\try most of things available a two day ticket would be better. We’re planning to have our last day in Malaysia over there, didn’t have time to try Flying Fox, Bungee jump etc. For Flying Fox minimum weight is 40kg, and maximum is 80kg. And Bungee jump cost around 120RM per person, the height is around 25 m. The Wild Park is quite interesting and educational even for adults, there are many animals, all have their own names, and there is a detailed description about each ones background. All of them are kept in a nice environment, and they are not lonely, most have a partner or a friend who is the same kind. They seem alright and playful.

CreateBeautifulLife.my: Our last visit was on 12/9/2020 This is a real family fun hotspot! It has everything for any age group, from pets zoo, baby wading pool to wave party pool (at 4pm everyday) .... if you have teenagers it will be fantastic! Don't miss out their 5D cinema with your loved one 🥶 Elderly can even just take a sip of coffee or a healthier freshly blend fruits juice to have a relaxing day on the beach. Been missing this place so much !

Reviews from Real Guests:

K-TravelMuse: It was the roof of the world for many years. Of course, although Dubai has taken this attribute from these towers, it is still a very valuable place here. Two high quality skyscrapers with all facilities in one of the best cities in the world. The Petronas Twin Towers can be seen from almost anywhere in the city. Existence of different shops with different global brands has increased the quality of this place more than before. Here we can mention the Malaysian signature. Even small sculptures of these two skyscrapers are sold in different parts of the city. The materials used in these skyscrapers are also very special and different. The interesting thing is that although the skyscrapers are made of metal and glass, they are always clean. It seems that the workers of these skyscrapers is routinely cleaned 24 hours a day. During the twelve years of continuous travel to this city and visiting this great city, whenever I came to these two skyscrapers, I always admired them for these huge structures. amazing.

Trip.com User: Regardless of which city and place you want to go to Malaysia, I suggest that you do not come from the end of September to around December. This time is the rainy season here. It will be better during the summer vacation. I have gone to the Kuala Lumpur Tower. At present, I am going to see the scenery and take pictures. I also use telescope to see Kuala Lumpur adult is 71 horses. Coin, personally feel very worth it, you can also buy tickets online will be cheaper, there are sky box 1, sky box 2 on the elevator, the service staff at the door will give you a number card when you enter, wait for them to broadcast over there, don't cross the number, just, Before taking pictures, they have staff who will take pictures with their camera. It's okay to let him take pictures. He will give the paper and don't care. Because that is a cost, they don't care. After they take pictures, they can ask the staff to take pictures for you with your mobile phone (your own mobile phone) A number has 1 minute and 40 seconds to shoot, and you can't shoot beyond it ～ so take the opportunity.
