Overview

Step into the heart of Melaka and uncover the stories that shaped this UNESCO World Heritage City. This free walking tour offers centuries of culture, trade, and tradition — without stretching your budget.

As you explore the city’s charming streets, discover its mix of Malay, Chinese, Indian, and European influences reflected in architecture, cuisine, and daily life. Learn how Melaka transformed from a bustling trading port into a symbol of Malaysia’s multicultural identity.

Highlights include Dutch Square, Christ Church, St. Paul’s Church, and the historic A Famosa Fort, one of Asia’s oldest surviving European structures. Stroll down Jonker and Heeren Street, where time stands still among heritage shophouses and vibrant street life.

Note: This is a tip-based tour. The booking fee secures your spot, while tips (suggested RM80-150 per person) directly support your guide’s efforts, which is a fair amount. Your voluntary tip supports their continued work.
