Kuala Lumpur: Genting Highlands Tour with Awana Cable Car

Leave the hustle and bustle of Kuala Lumpur behind and embark on an unforgettable 10 hour journey to Genting Highlands, a cool and vibrant mountain resort. Departing at 9:00 AM or 1:00 PM, begin your journey with a visit to the iconic Batu Caves, one of Malaysia’s most popular Hindu shrines dedicated to Lord Murugan. Climb the colorful 272 steps leading up to the limestone caves, where you’ll be greeted by magnificent temples and vibrant statues set against a dramatic natural backdrop.

Then, enjoy a relaxing 45-minute drive through scenic landscapes before arriving at the Genting Skyway station. Hop aboard the Genting Skyway Cable Car and glide over lush rainforest canopies, soaking in panoramic jungle views as you ascend to the highlands.

Midway, disembark at the Chin Swee Caves Temple, a peaceful hilltop sanctuary featuring intricate stone carvings, a majestic nine-story pagoda, and serene spiritual surroundings. After exploring the temple grounds, continue your ride to the summit of Genting Highlands, where a world of entertainment awaits.

Upon arrival, experience the lively atmosphere of this mountaintop retreat. Try your luck at Malaysia’s only land-based casino, Casino de Genting, or visit the vibrant indoor theme park filled with exciting attractions. For thrill-seekers, Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park (admission is at your own cost) offers adrenaline-pumping rides and immersive movie-themed zones.

Shopping enthusiasts can explore Genting Highlands Premium Outlets, home to over 150 designer and brand-name stores offering great discounts. Food lovers are also in for a treat, with a wide variety of dining options, from tasty street food to upscale restaurants serving global cuisines.
