TOUR OVERVIEW
Step into one of Melaka's living Malay villages on a private walking tour through Kampung Morten. Wander along peaceful village paths lined with traditional wooden houses, and discover the customs, values and everyday traditions that define kampung life. Your private guide shares how community, family and hospitality have shaped the village for generations, and how its heritage is kept alive today. Founded in the 1920s and named after British land officer F. J. Morten, the village was gazetted as a heritage Malay village in 1998.
Visit Merdeka House, a highlight of Kampung Morten, and try your hand at traditional Malay games that generations of villagers grew up playing. Then sit down to a home-style Malay meal served with true kampung hospitality, a warm and delicious end to your visit.
