The cave is one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside India, and is dedicated to Lord Murugan. It is the focal point of the Hindu festival of Thaipusam in Malaysia. Batu Caves in short also referred as 10th Caves or Hill for Lord Murugan as there are six important holy shrines in India and four more in Malaysia.

Amazing tour and guide spending a wonderful day in Malaysia

We had a wonderful guide Rajan D. who was very knowledgeable in the historical and current Malaysia, We saw Batu caves, waterfalls and toured the tin factory - Royal Selangor and beautiful hand painted silk factory. We also had a great local lunch and stopped at the Twin Towers, a beautiful Chinese temple and the Kings mosque. We were lucky to have Rajan on this private tour and which we highly recommend.

5* Malaysian day out with Indran

What a fantastic day we had with Indran! Docking at Port Kelang Indran picked us up directly from the terminal and in a very busy day we stopped off at the Petronas Towers, visited the Selangor Pewter museum, Batu Caves, waterfalls and even manged to squeeze in an amazing lunch. All the stops were well worth it! A great day out, enjoyed by all and highly recommended. Thank you Indran - Richard, Sacha, Brian and Sue!

Very enjoyable day in Kuala Lumpur surrounds

Bat caves is interesting, culturally and socially. It can get crowded as you drive in, but amazingly it accommodates all the Taurus and worshipers. Note that you do not have to buy a scarf at the bottom… You can see in the temple without going in. There are some shops at the top for souvenirs. The waterfalls are amazing. There are six levels called ARA’s one through six. Each one is a a waterfall and a pool so it accommodates all level levels of climbers.

Excellent day out.

Excellent service, loved the trip to the Batu caves and the waterfalls, unfortunately the hot springs wasn’t available, but our driver whose name I have lost, was brilliant and took us to the Grand Palace. He would have taken us elsewhere, but we had a lovely day and was ready to return to our ship.

Fantastic personalized private tour through Penang with lots of pictures!

Joe Tan was a phenomenal tour guide for our day-long private tour in Penang. He was extremely knowledgeable about the country’s history, religious temples, and all the different sights. He accompanied us in all locations, taking us efficiently through everything there was to see, while showing us all the best photo spots. Joe even took over 100 photos of our group and sent them to us digitally on WhatsApp. We never felt rushed and appreciated Joe’s enthusiasm in sharing detailed information on what made a particular sight special. From the top of Penang Hill to Kek Lok Si temple, to the Batik factory to street art in George Town, we got to experience it all with Joe’s expert guidance. Highly recommend this very personalized tour!

Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kuala Lumpur.

How much does Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls cost?

+

Prices start at $177 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 Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls take?

+

Plan for about 6 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 Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 12 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 Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls?

+

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 Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls?

+

Around 4 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Port Klang Shore Excursion: Batu Caves, Crafts & Kanching Falls 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.
