Just remember one thing, we are night crawlers. We do not normally roaming around in the hot tropical sun. We do indoor during the day and outdoor at night, especially this time around where the temperature is scorching hot. Careful with heat stroke and do not let urself be part of the statistic. Stay cool and get plenty of water

I had a feeling you two would enjoy KL. We really enjoy that city. We have already been there for a total of three months this year. You are pretty spot on with everything you have said. We have been in Southeast Asia for a while now and have gotten pretty used to the heat. However, the great thing about Bukit Bintang is the elevated air conditioned walkways you mentioned. There are also underground air conditioned walkways that connect the malls and other places. We could literally go grocery shopping, hang out at the mall, dining, go to the movies, go to doctors appointments, etc. and barely break a sweat. I agree the sidewalks there are great compared to many other places in Southeast Asia and it's also great that many of them are covered to provide shelter from the sun and rain. The last place we stayed in Bukit Bintang had a lot of trees and we loved it. As far as transportation is concerned, Grabs are great there and the train works a charm as well. Looks like you stayed away from Jalan Alor street. You didn't miss much. Better local food and experiences can be had elsewhere. Thanks for sharing your experience of KL. Safe travels on your way to Singapore.

Bukit = hill Bintang = star Jalan = street/road Menara = tower Negara = national (can also means country) Nasi = rice Mee = noodles Ayam = chicken Terima = take/accept Kasih = love, care Terima kasih = thank you

KL is such a beautiful city! We love visiting it and find new things each time we have a look around! Enjoy your time there guys! Make sure to check out some of the other places like the National Monument! If you're into your noodles, try out Soong Kee's beef ball noodles, you won't be disappointed! Great vid guys!❤🇲🇾

Welcome to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia ❤️🇲🇾

Malaysia is so beautiful and super diverse. Try going penang, melaka, langakwi and putrajaya. Each has its charm.

Welcome to Kuala Lumpur, The different between KL vs Bangkok or Ho Chin Min City is that the Majority of Malaysian you meet in KL can speak !😊

Such a good video guys! You convinced us to go back to Malaysia. Nice new kicks btw 👟

Our life in KL for 8 months- living in a constant state of being drenched. Either with sweat, due to the insane humidity- or by the constant rain (like clockwork) every day. 😂 KL is definitely not the most walkable city (unless you're downtown), and the transit isn't the greatest in Asia, but it's an absolutely amazing place. A lot of great food, and has an East meets West vibe. Lots of comforts from home, but still feels very diverse and beautiful. We seriously miss it there! ❤

Awesome video! Malaysia is an amazing place! The food is fantastic. I think Nonya food is a hidden gem that isn't well-known in the US, but some roti canai and a big bowl of laksa are always great. Full massages aren't my thing at all, but a food massage after walking around all day is perfect and they are cheap enough in SE Asia that you can easily get one a day.

Cool video KL is my favourite city and I have been to many of the tourist places there plus it is very green with beautiful parks in the centre. And Bangkok is my 2nd favourite city.

Wow, you stayed in The Robertson, my favorite place to stay in KL. And you say you were there in early May, staying in an apartment on the 43rd floor. Guess what...I was in an apartment with the same view as you at the same time but on the 41st floor! Incredible I never ran into you. I noticed the lack of motorbikes as well compared to other places in Southeast Asia, and how it is much quieter because people rarely honk their horns. KL is really a great city. Thank you for sharing your experiences there!

KL is ideal for seeing outdoor life at night when it's not hot everyone will be outside

Love that you guys mentioned the "clockwork" daily albeit brief storms - KL has some of the craziest lightning and thunder of any capital I've been too (I'm easily amused!). Thank you for the well-researched and practical info (particularly for walking sightseers).

Really, try some roti canai! Simple but really satisfying dish.

🇲🇾welcome ladies and gentlemen, we Malaysians are very pleased and welcome you.🇲🇾

Very interesting city. I still have my eye on the Greek Islands or maybe Madeira or the Algarve, but the cost of living on this side of the world is awfully appealing. But the humidity! : ) Another great video as usual.

Great video, we really enjoyed KL as well. We did the Hop on Hop off, It was our first time and we loved it., especially with the heat! The malls are outrageous in a good way, A/C and browsing! Glad to see the stairs are repainted, they were white when we were there. Enjoy!

If you guys have spare time in Malaysia, try cooler (in terms of temperature) places like Genting Highlands, Cameron Highlands (nice retirement place) and Bukit Tinggi French Village. These places are closer in terms ambient temperature and feels to San Diego or San Francisco generally, getaways for locals to feel the cooler weather uphill.

Greta video and info! We´re living in Lisbon now and traveling around Europe but can´t wait to experience Asia and KL is top on our list.

I suggest both of you to visit Putra Jaya if both of you are coming back to Malaysia in the future.. 😊❤

Order Char Kway Teow! If you like: noodles, savory flavor, and shrimp and squid, this is an incredible dish! Also, Sarang Burang and Lamb Rendang

10:17 In case you didn't know, those masseurs are invariably foreign migrant workers usually from Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Indonesia... Malaysia supports a disproportionately high number of foreign migrant workers from other Southeast Asian (other than Singapore) and South Asia countries : at least 7 million of them, equivalent to 22 percent of Malaysia's population and 45 percent of its workforce.

wonderful TV report that makes you want to go and visit this marvellous Kuala Lumpur ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I'll tell you why I particularly this like THIS video, aside from both your lovely personalities. Your production, organization, audio and filming reflect the work you have obviously put in behind the scenes in preparation. Additionally, I love videos that present just enough insight to whet the appetite because I like to discover things for myself, leaving surprises in the bag for when i get to a location. Gee and I will be in South East Asia next February/March, God willing. Kudos for excellent work. Ten out of ten. Roger

Going in September! So excited ❤

Thank u for this wonderful video n for also showing your explorations in KL. Welcome to Malaysia. Very nice vlog.

Great video guys! We loved Kuala Lumpur. At the Batu Caves a monkey tried to steal my wife's water. It was too funny. We should have grabbed your number when we ran into you guys in Kuala Lumpur. We love having lunch/dinner and chatting with other full-time travelers. Maybe we will catch you in another city around the world. We are in Bali now but headed back to Vietnam soon. Will and Jen

Forecasted that the weather is going to be really hot until August in Malaysia. Hotter than normal. Just a reminder.

My husband Ray and I really love you guys! We have watched your grow from your very first video to where you are now. Your videos are top quality! Who does the video production or editing? From your biggest fans 😃

Thank you very much for promoting KL . Happy holidays and pls come back to Malaysia ya ......

Malaysia my fav place. Thanks for bringing back memories!. BTW can you please post a link to the airbnb u guys stayed in would be fun to be staying on the 42nd floor and see the entire world from up above

Enjoy your stay in KL. Syabas.

Welcome to colourful Malaysia 🇲🇾 🌿🎊👍

You guys have an amazing stay there! Blessings

I wish you guys safe journeys always in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia @ the Shopping Mall with other tourists in May of 2023❤❤❤Congratulations to you guys always for your new remarkable videos in 2023❤❤❤

What a beautiful, well develop, and established country. Can you go over the cost of living there? As for the cave, that is ashame not to have an elevator, this prevents a lot of older folks from enjoying. I can’t wait for Japan or Korea.

❤Malaysia 🇲🇾 & Kuala Lumpur/"KL" = Truly Asia❣

Massage parlours are usually operated by Thais They r a bit pushy We Malaysians are not the type to force on others

Hi, welcome 🤗 to Malaysia 🎉❤

Terima Kasih!! Great video sharing our favourite city in Asia. We've resided at both Times Sqaure and also in Bukit Ceylon so it was so nice seeing our local areas again. Glad you enjoyed your stay! Also, make sure you try Chicken Fish in Jalan Alor. Roti Chanai is also a winner. A day trip down to Melaka is worthwhile too.

Welcome to Kuala Lumpur ❤

Looks like a future destination or home to me, the caves remind me of marble mountain in Danang. Truly amazing 🙏🙏

Great video of a beautiful city! I enjoy your videos so very much! I look forward to ‘seeing’ y’all every Saturday. ❤️❤️ Looking forward to seeing what sandals you decide on Brian. 😉 My husband retires Tuesday and we close on our house Tuesday, too. We’ll spend one months in the states saying our goodbyes to everyone. Then we travel to Guadalajara for the first month of our world travel adventures. We are beyond excited! We’ve worked and planned for this for so long and now it’s just a month away! 😁👏🏻

Very nice place , enjoy your time there.

Hai...welcome to Malaysia...i hope you all enjoy in Malaysia

Lovely couple:Welcome to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia today’s in great joy to tours around the capital city this weekend in May of 2023❤❤❤Remarkable video to watch today’s in Southeast Asia in 2023❤❤❤

Guys!!! Durian season is here hahaha

just arrived yesterday and looking forward to our time here. Thanks for your thoughts and recommendations.

Just enjoy your stay 😊 make more reviews as much as you can 🎉 KL is nice city🌇🌆

Bery nice city.

Amazing video

i knew. you stayed at robertson.. my fav place to stay at KL. the reason is .. great location.. and the mamak shop below was delicious. the nasi lemak you tried really good for me as local. roti canai and their tea also good

I'm from Seattle been living in KL for 28 years!

Would love to visit the Batu Caves! I hear a lot of great things about the food and pricing. Look forward to visiting one day!

What an amazing looking city! I am so impressed with everything that you showed! Definitely a must see, at least once! But ugh, it looks like you guys are really struggling with the oppressive humidity. I would be dying! Not sure if you two are familiar with the concept of 'wet-bulb temperature', but extremely humid environments like that inhibit the body's ability to cool itself through evaporative cooling, and so life-threatening heat stroke can happen at much lower temperatures than you would think and can happen in as little as six hours! So definitely play it safe! Great video!!

Like most Australian’s (because it is so close & different to Australia) our family has spent a lot of time in SEAsia and love it all. Our favourite Countries are Cambodia and Laos. No where near as developed as where you have been and maybe that’s a big part of the appeal. I hope you get the chance to go to both these Countries.

Haa..haaa…” i’ve got more wet in dry land compared to while skorkling”…i like that phrase..😂 Hope u two had a good time in KL

Have a safe journey to Singapore. As you said there is a lot to see and do there as I experienced the country for 1 week. Gardens By the Bay ( including Super trees, Cloud forest and flower dome) , Botanical Gardens, Sentosa Island for adventures, Orchard for shopping. There are plenty of places including hawker centres to try local dishes which are fairly priced. Try their MRT trains, they are very good and runs on time and are well connected.

Those motor bike are everywhere in Kuala Lumpur

KL is quieter. I prefer the hustle of Bangkok! But I loved Petaling -Chinatown. I stayed at 4pts Sheraton soooo affordable and a new construction. Pavilion Mall was fancy but they have Five Guys Burgers 🍔 if you need your Western Fix and The Four Seasons has Nobu sushi 🍣 restaurant if you want an upscale experience for a fraction of the price in US. I loved the Free Buses that take you around KL. The Go bus Green line went from Patronas to Bukit Bintang in a circle. Free Air Conditioned bus!!! I loved Malaysia 🇲🇾 My favourite coffee shop is Kaffe in Chinatown! Best desserts 🍮 and coffee! I’m ready to go back I left in April!

Hope you’ve had a great time in Malaysia. Do come back and explore more. Happy travels.

Secret: Malaysia and Portugal are the top retirement destinations for US Citizens outside of Mexico ......

Enjoyed watching the two of you as always. Can’t wait to see your video of Indonesia. Let me buy you beer. Stay safe 🎉

the blue building is the second highest tower in the world

I like this one!

eat at kampung baru area.. better than jalan alor

my wife and I were in KL to see family the same time you were there, I thought I saw you but wasn't sure! We normally stay in the Fairlane Apartments or the Dorsett Apartments, both of which are relatively cheaper than a hotel and have amazing views of the skyline, both being hi-rise blocks in Bukit Bintang ('Star Hil'). The Hotel Royale is also one of our favourites there, good value with great food.

Welcome to greater KL, truly Asia hub! The Asian metropolis that has 9mil people now.

Welcome to Malaysia hopefully both of you enjoy and feel unforgettable memories experience during visiting Malaysia

Welcome to Malaysia. You are a very sweet couple. Take care of your health.

Thank you for visiting Malaysia.. you are always welcome again..

Actually, honking here is a little rude. I have been driving in KL for 40 years and I really can't remember when was the last time I honked when driving in KL. Enjoy your stay here. Stay safe.

Great information!! Thank you and always enjoy your videos!

Look very clean andwell maintain

Welcome to Malaysia❤

Nice :) Will you visit Borneo? I went to Kuching on my SE-Asia roundtrip in february. Found it very interesting... :)

Hallo hii 🖐️😁, kenikmatan makanan nasi berlauk malaysia terletak di tangan anda, maksudnya kamu makan dengan tangan, Terima kasih datang ke malaysia 😁👍🖐️😁

WELCOME to Malaysia guys..... try the real "Nasi Lemak" (not nasi campur, some confuse with the two), the "Ramly Burger" at jalan Alor, the "Chendol" during warm whether enjoy trips and mix with the locals and apologise us for any short comings....

Brian, you are more brave than I, if you have a fear of heights. I saw those towers and thought no way would I pay to be so high up! Then, one of you said your place was on the 43rd floor 😮! My knees and legs go weak when I'm on like the 7th floor. I just saw on Instagram you are back in WA visiting. Have a good time with family and friends. Kathleen

I'm really glad that you two enjoyed KL. I've been several times, but haven't been able to still get into it fully. I was first there in April 2001 and actually liked it much more back then than now. A best friend and I decided to zip over to S.E. Asia to shop for some interior design items for her new residence. We wanted to buy Jim Thompson items, but the flights were booked solid from LAX to Bangkok. I'd been going to Bangkok, Singapore, and Indonesia, since the late 90s at that point. We ended up buying a ticket on Singapore Air to Singapore instead ($500 round trip from LAX) and flew to Singapore. We did an overnight there and then flew to KL (45 minutes) and checked into the Ritz Carlton ($125 a night, before splitting the cost). Plus, since I had reserved the hotel through AmEX, we got upgraded to a private floor and with around 5, free culinary food experiences a day plus tea time. After KL, we flew back to Singapore. We were in S.E. Asia for only a quick week of shopping and eating and then back to L.A. My friend and I hired a private driver who hung out in front of the Ritz Carlton Hotel, but we saw him on a side street of the nearby Karyaneka Craft Boutique that we were walking to one day. We recognized him from the Ritz Carlton. So, we walked over to his car and negotiated a price with him ($7.00 an hour) instead of going through the hotel and paying ($15. an hour). He took us everywhere for 3 days even out into areas with kampongs, and the gorgeous Blue Mosque-Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Mosque. We were allowed to go inside. Beautiful. I then went back to KL in Jan 2015, I think it was. I didn't even recognize the city. My Malaysian cousins, not by blood, but my former Airbnb hosts in 2015, don't even recognize the city anymore. They live around 45 minutes, by car, in the KL suburbs. We are like family and have been close ever since I rented their Airbnb studio apartment in KL. I've had only great Airbnb experiences. They just e-mailed me a few days ago. We see each other whenever I come to S.E. Asia and on the last trip in 2019/2020, one of them flew to Singapore for one day to see me since I didn't want to go from Penang (my preferred city) to KL and then to Singapore as I had done on the 2018/2019 trip. They usually drive the 3.5 hours to me in Penang to meet up. I was last in KL in Jan 2019 as I wanted to try out the new Four Seasons Hotel there. It had just opened the year prior. The Malaysian cousins picked me up at the airport and drove me to the hotel and then we drove to their residence and I stayed there the day and at the end of the day, I was driven back to central KL to my hotel. I flew on to Singapore the next day. You arrived into KL when it's been very modernized as the construction just never seems to stop. The Monorail system was finished in 2010, but was plagued with problems of breaking down and not being maintained very well at that time. As for the MRT system, construction didn't start until 2011, the first phase supposedly opened at the end of 2016, and supposedly a new phase just opened in 2022. When I arrived back to KL in Jan 2015, there were so many new high rise buildings until I was speechless. I remember , in April 2001, when my friend and I walked from the Ritz Carlton to the Kareyaneka Craft Boutique and were able to take short cuts though empty lots. Not anymore as now there are high-rise condo buildings on about every plot of land. The last time that I went to Karyaneka, in Jan 2015, I had to walk a long way around a block to get there. No more short cuts. So, now you're off to Singapore, my second favorite city, Bangkok being my #1 favorite in the world of destinations that I have traveled to since the 1970s. And Singapore has really changed over the decades. I've also been going there regularly since the late 1990s and was last there in Jan/Feb 2020. I spend up to 2 weeks there. It's too bad that a lot of people zip in and out in 2 days and don't stay long enough to really get into it. Have a great rest of your trip, although by now, it's probably over. Greetings from Los Angeles

Visit Batu Caves during the Thaipusam festival. Place will be packed though. There will be Hindus carrying the Kavadi .. very spectacular !!

Thank for sharing a nice video and i just subscribe your channel!!!👍🇲🇾❤️

That purple scooter rate is MYR 2.50 to unlock and RM 0.60 per minutes. You should try.

IF you truly love parks then KL is the place for you... Parks, Nature Walks and Forests, Rivers & Waterfalls abound and all if not most are free...

Love you guys. You do such a good job, really enjoyable thank you 🧡💛💚

One day come to Indonesia, travelling in bandung city. Usually by car 4 hours arrive. But with high speed railway 350 km/hours only 45 minuts from jakarta city. Open to public 18 august 2023..the first in southeast. Amazing

Hop-on-hop-off tours are a great way to get your bearings in a new place.

Hey you two! I've been waiting weeks for this video to post, just because it seemed appropriate. My wife and I met you in the mall by Patronus Towers! Bryan and Ariana from Chicago. I just wanted to say how amazing it was to run into you both. We really appreciated your time and chatting with you for a few minutes. You're even more cool in person than on the videos. I'm a really huge fan of your channel, your style, and your editing. My wife and I are also hoping to start making some videos to share in the semi near future when I get the courage to retire and follow in your footsteps. You two are a huge inspiration! I regret not having the time to buy you dinner and some beer but hopefully we will meet again!

You mentioned in another video (I think) that the price of food/grocery etc. in Kuala Lumpur. Yes, even for a local, food is a little pricey. Some useful tips : (if you're on a budget) you need to travel a little bit outskirt (this is also a tip for other tourists as well - if you're already left KL) for example - people will not tell you this but 1.5km from Batu Caves, there are townships called Sri Gombak (SG3, SG1 and Prima) - you can walk over there from Batu Caves if you enjoy the tan. (There is also a Giant Hypermarket (kind a like the local Walmart) where there is also a food court for you to choose various Asian delights) There is a free yellow bus (which you need to request the driver to stop at Sri Gombak) - you'll be surprised with the variety of local food (stalls, restaurants, fast food) and how cheap they are - Malay, Indian, Chinese, Western - vege and non-vege (the free yellow bus also goes to Bandar Baru Selayang - another great place to be at. If you wish to travel to Gombak LRT Station by the same bus, you need to wait at the same place where they drop you off - but not recommended at nightime as there is a night market and people are double parking over there - kind a difficult to see the bus sometimes) if you want to buy drinks/beverages or basic groceries - drop by at any most economical 99 Speedmart (closed at 10.00 pm though) Travelling back to KL from Sri Gombak is easy, take any blue bus (which require a touch and go card), the best bus to take is T201 which goes straight to Gombak LRT Station (it's about RM1.00 - circa USD 0.21) but you need to wait at the right bus stop (which is in front of Coffee Bean). You can also go to Genting by express buses - will not cost you much. Alternatively, you can also go to the outskirt of Ampang (Ampang Jaya), or perhaps Klang or Wangsa Maju/Wangsa Melawati - just naming a few. There are quite a number of informative FB Page for example "Pinggiran and Sri Gombak" where you can find adequate information about the place. There are many tourists looking for genuine traditional food. It's all outside of KL. Not to worry, people are very nice here, you can ask anyone if you feel that you're unsure or lost. But Grab will always be there to help. There are quite a lot of hidden gems outskirt of KL (but it would not be enough for me to comment here) But if you're the adventurous type, it would be fun. (the only thing about outskirt of KL, is that you shouldn't be around nightime - the shops are closed early although there are few Mamak (Indian Muslim) restaurants up to 12-2.00 am. - (advisable to limit up to 8.30 pm) Basically KL is a good place to be - all in all. Lush of greens, pedestrian-friendly, ease of mobility (vast network of transport) Good luck

Welcome to Malaysia... Enjoy

You guys rock! Loving your content!

If u like nature, pls go to botanical garden just behind meseum negara and also nearby kl tower

Welcome to Malaysia brother..Have a nice Holiday 🫰

Always look forward to the weekly video! What are the sandals your looking for? I’ve never wore a pair that I liked.

Thanks for the KL video. It looks lovely; I'd want to go spend a month just to try all the good food and fun places to eat. I'm starting to make our plans for where to pass the 2024 winter months and SE Asia just beats every other place in price and value and good food. Where to after Singapore?

I've been enjoying your videos for quite a while now. I must admit that the thought of visiting Southeast Asia was not very appealing to me when I once thought of future travels. After seeing the videos from you and several other KZfaq channels, however, I cannot wait to go! I have two more days of work and then I am retiring (May 31). I'll begin full-time, solo world travel in September. I've booked my first trip, which will extend into late January. There will be stops in Ireland, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece and Tunisia. Can't wait to begin!

The fish that is eaten with nasi lemak is anchovies, not sardines. Do come to Malaysia again. If you do come again, do come to Kelantan

Wow! Even the birds agreed....

Fabulous blog 💛 Welcome 2 KL 🍻
