3.00If you are looking for historical tour and glimpse of colonial life, you will get a little glimpse. Cameron Highlands are over developed with huge hotels and vast areas of poly tunnels. Lunch at golf club was good and restful setting. If you are looking for a tour of retails opportunities, then you will enjoy this car tour of garden centres and markets. The tea plantation was restful and interesting and did offer some history. Suggest bringing a guide book with you if you want to learn more about this area.
Perfect tour

5.00We have been on the tour yesterday with Nash. He was such a nice and helpful person who showed us the real Malaysia and Cameron Highlands and what this is all about. We went there early and had great conversations while driving. We saw stunning tea plantations and had a fantastic lunch. We also had time as a couple to experience everything in the time that we wanted. He also asked us to tell him, if we want to skip something which was no problem (we skipped the cactus farm). Instead he showed us at a market, which tropical fruits are growing in the highlands and how to eat them, told us about the malayan culture and had for every question an answer. This is no "standard" tourist trip to the highlands but instead a tour that lets you experience the "real" Malaysia and Cameron Highlands. Although visiting the fruit markets and taste the different fruits, was not part of the trip, Nash was very open minded to show us everything there because we wanted to know that and he was happy to share his knowledge. We would definitely recommend this trip, it was fantastic and with Nash as our guide, it was even better!
Super nice driver and great trip

5.00Very touristy, but driver and excursion were still very nice. You just can't expect an 'off-road' experience or deserted nature/photo spots.
Recommend this tour!

4.00good tour of cameron highlands and surrounds! our tour guide nash was great and went above and beyond. he took us to lots of different places throughout the day. he also noticed the little things (such as when we were discussing the beautiful view and he stopped the car so we could get out to take pictures, or when we said we’d never tried rambutans and he brought back a whole bag for us to try!). tour itinerary + lunch spot is also easily able to changed based on your preferences which is great! the roads to cameron highlands are VERY windy (keep in mind in case you get motion sickness) and can be difficult to drive through so this tour is mainly paying for a guide to take up into the mountains safety 😊 some spots on the itinerary were a little run down and probably not worth a visit (rose and orchid garden, lavender fields, cactus park etc). and also these activities still require you to pay entrance fees (not included in your purchase of this tour) so could be an extra MYR60-100 per person depending on where you go. but the tea plantations are definitely worth a visit and have great teh tarik! there also lots of pretty places to stop along the way in the highlands and get pictures too! overall i’d recommend this tour and encourage you to be vocal if there are parts you’d like to change 😊 thanks RGM Tours!

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our excursion with Nash from Ipoh to the Cameron Highlands was absolutely fantastic — mainly because it turned out completely different from the standard program. Nash picked us up earlier than scheduled to avoid traffic, which we really appreciated. The last thing we wanted was to be stuck in traffic, and this thoughtful decision made the journey relaxed from the very start. On the way to the Cameron Highlands, Nash shared a huge amount of information about Malaysia, its history, cultures, traditions, and everyday life. His knowledge is impressive, and his storytelling made the long drive fly by. After visiting the Cameron Highlands, we went to a garden center with animals. While it was nice, it wasn’t really our thing. What made this trip truly special was that Nash immediately listened to our preferences and together we decided to completely change the rest of the program. The result was unforgettable: we drove along narrow mountain roads to some of the most beautiful, unique, and breathtaking places we have seen during our trip. As a big surprise, we visited two stunning temples, far away from the crowds. No busy markets (which we’ve already seen plenty of), no touristy farms or strawberry plantations that feel like a step back in time — but instead authentic, peaceful locations that felt truly special. Throughout the day, Nash continuously adjusted the itinerary to match our wishes, always suggesting places that might suit us even better. His deep knowledge of the country, culture, history, wildlife, and surroundings really sets him apart. Most importantly, he genuinely listens and cares about creating the best possible experience. A big thank you to Nash for an unforgettable day — this was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Malaysia. Highly recommended!

5.00Very convenient way to see Cameron Highlands from Ipoh - stopping at all of the main attractions. Our guide Goblin was very friendly and knowledgeable - we were never rushed and had lots of time to explore the attractions. The trip takes an entire day, however, the hotel pickup and drop off makes it easy.

5.00I had a wonderful full-day tour to Cameron Highlands. Jim was a very kind, patient and knowledgeable guide who made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. We visited the Lavender & Strawberry Garden, Kea Farm Market, Cactus Valley, Bharat Tea Estate and the iconic BOH Tea Estate. Each stop was beautiful in its own way, and Jim always shared interesting facts about the region, nature and local culture. I really appreciated the great organization of the tour, the comfortable pace, and the stunning views along the way. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to discover the best of Cameron Highlands in one day!
