no idea
We were delayed for 37 hours, which I explained to the tour person, what our plain were delayed for two hours, so we had no chance to join Kuala Lumpur plain, then we had stayed in Abu Dhabi for 37 hours, they contacted me by saying we can organise tomorrow 9 am, I'm sure they haven't read my message properly. Asked them to organise that trip on Monday Tuesday Wednesday next week, no response since then. So it's my fault for not being on time, but at least they could pretend they are care about. Money gone, no trip. Thank you
Response from the operator: We are so sorry this all happened to you. We will forward your feedback to our team to look into.

A great trip with a great chauffeur and guide.
We had an amazing time in the Genting highlands and all along the way where our guide and chauffeur Joe enthralling us with his interesting conversation. His knowledge regarding the Genting highlands and several other aspects of Kuala Lumpur was amazing. A guide in true sense. The day went very well in the theme park. The rides were all fabulous and especially my 10 yrs old daughter Kairavi enjoyed immensely.
Response from the operator: Thank You very much for giving us this wonderful review

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kuala Lumpur.
How much does One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car cost?
+
Prices start at $92 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kuala Lumpur usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kuala Lumpur is not rushed.
Is One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kuala Lumpur, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kuala Lumpur can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kuala Lumpur and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does One Day Genting Highland Tour from Kuala Lumpur with Cable Car start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kuala Lumpur within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kuala Lumpur?
+
On Outty we rank every Kuala Lumpur experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sambal Streets Kuala Lumpur Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Genting Highland & Batu Cave Guided Day Tour (SIC/Shared Tour), Private Half-Day Batu Caves and Cutural Tour in Kuala Lumpur. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kuala Lumpur?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kuala Lumpur?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
