Lawrence was superb, our favourite guide of the three tours we took in Malaysia. He was very informative, polite, a good driver and very flexible. Ours was a private tour and he made sure that we covered everything on the tour agenda and willingly took us shopping for spices at our request at the end of the day. He made sure we always had drinks for hydration in the heat, very important. We will use him again when we return to Malaysia.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Hope to see you again next year when you visit Malaysia on the sister ship.
