Looking for a break from the city buzz and a chance to experience something truly local? Join this guided tour to Bagan Sungai Besar, a charming fishing village about two hours from Kuala Lumpur. Often described as one of the most picturesque fishing villages in Malaysia, it's the perfect spot to slow down and enjoy life by the sea.
Depending on the tide, your day may start with a leisurely morning walk around the village or with "lala" (clam) hunting on the shore. When the tide is low, the seabed reveals hidden treasures, and the guide will bring you to the best spots, share tips, and make clamming a fun, hands-on experience.
As you explore, you'll get a closer look at the lifestyle of the fishing community, discover their traditions, and, if you're lucky, witness fishermen unloading and processing their fresh catch right by the jetty. Along the way, you'll stop at local favourites to taste homemade snacks made in the village. The tour ends with a hearty seafood lunch, fresh from the ocean and full of flavour.
This experience blends nature, culture, and food into one unforgettable day. Come and explore the hidden gems of Selangor's largest Chinese fishing village - you'll leave with full stomachs, great memories, and maybe even a few new stories to tell.
Available daily at 8:00 AM (GMT+8), subject to guide availability. Special arrangements can be made for other time slots.
