TOUR OVERVIEW
Step into the living history of Melaka on a private walking tour through the old town's winding streets. Stroll along Harmony Street, Heeren Street and Jonker Street, where rows of traditional shophouses tell the story of the merchants, trades and families who shaped this UNESCO World Heritage city, listed together with George Town in Penang since 2008.
Then leave the main roads behind and slip into Melaka's hidden lanes. Discover colourful murals, quiet courtyards and photo spots that most visitors walk right past, while your private guide shares the stories behind every corner. Cool off along the way with a local dessert such as cendol, on us.
