Malaysia's charm lies in its rich, multicultural roots - and on this tour, you'll step back in time to follow the journey of the Chinese community as they first arrived and built their lives here. Stroll through heritage streets and discover how different Chinese dialect groups shaped the trades, businesses, and food culture that are still part of everyday life.
Along the way, you'll hear the stories behind traditional businesses, try out a carbide lamp once used in the mining industry, and watch the skillful art of glass cutting. You'll also step into a century-old watch shop, learn the history of the famous Bak Kut Teh with its unique blend of herbs and spices, and - when available - see how the much-loved chicken rice ball is made. To top it off, you'll get to taste authentic traditional food (tasting fees not included).
What might look like an ordinary old store to the eye will come alive with stories of resilience, hardship, and heritage, making this tour much more than a simple walk - it's a window into the struggles and triumphs of our ancestors. This tour is available daily, so contact us to check the time slots and be part of the story.
