The Iconic Petronas Twin Towers
Standing at nearly 452 meters, the Petronas Twin Towers are unmistakably Kuala Lumpur’s signature. While many travelers simply snap photos from below, this tour grants you special entry to the Skybridge on the 42nd floor, which connects the two towers at 170 meters. Unlike public tickets that often involve long lines and crowds, this tour’s priority access means you get to enjoy the views relatively uninterrupted, accompanied by a guide who makes sure you understand the architectural marvels and the history behind them.
The Skybridge itself is a highlight—an engineering feat and the world’s highest two-story bridge. As one reviewer noted, “we really enjoyed the view from the Towers,” and being able to experience this without the usual hassle adds a lot of value. Plus, you’re treated to snacks and tea while taking in the city’s skyline, making the moment even more special.
Interactive Exhibits at Petrosains Discovery Centre
Following the Skybridge, your ticket grants access to the Petrosains Discovery Centre, which offers engaging exhibits from dinosaurs to nanotechnology. This part of the experience is ideal for those traveling with children or anyone interested in learning through interactive displays. Visitors have shared that the centre is well-managed and comfortable, even with little ones in tow.
The inclusion of this educational aspect means your visit isn’t just about views but also about fun, hands-on learning that appeals to all ages. One reviewer mentioned that the guides and staff made the visit seamless and welcoming, which enhances the overall experience.
Fine Dining with Panoramic Views

The tour description emphasizes a high-class dining experience, and multiple reviews mention the ‘exquisite food’ and the chance to enjoy a relaxed meal while overlooking Kuala Lumpur’s skyline.
One reviewer shared a memorable moment, where their guide went above and beyond to help them celebrate a birthday by bringing a cake into the dining hall. The atmosphere is described as refined yet comfortable, making it an ideal spot for special occasions or simply to indulge after your sightseeing.
Practical Details & Considerations
The tour is priced at $56 per person, which covers fast-track entry to the Skybridge, the Petrosains Centre, and the dining experience. While it doesn’t include access to the 88th-floor observation deck or alcoholic beverages, the value lies in the exclusive access and curated experience. Notably, the tour is suitable for most travelers, with children allowed for dinner after certain hours.
The group size is limited to 12, fostering an intimate atmosphere, and the tour’s duration can vary from just an hour to over a day, depending on how long you want to linger at each stop. The meeting point is conveniently located between the two towers, making it easy to find, especially if you’re familiar with the KLCC area.
