3 Hiking & Trekking Days near Kuala Lumpur Worth Booking

1.Taman Negara National Park Trek Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 395 reviews · 15 hours · from $177Our pick

Spend 15 hours traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Taman Negara with an English-speaking guide. Hike Teresek Hill, eat at a floating restaurant, visit a Bateq village, and ride the Tembeling River rapids. Guides such as Mushroom are known for lively nature walks, but expect a long drive and a very wet boat ride.

“Fantastic tour! Long bus ride from Kuala Lumpur - would be worth staying at the actual village instead I think, but driver was great. Great day out with boat rides, hiking, lunch and seeing the indigenous villages before getting a nice soaking on the way back. Defs would recommend!”
