Day 0 - If you arrived to Kuala Lumpur on a Friday night, considering the airport is a bit far off from the city center, you are probably better off going straight to your hotel. My recommendation for the area to stay would be around Bukit Bintang. This will ease your stay in many ways from transportation to exploring the city. (Bukit Bintang nightlife is vibrant and also very close to Jalan Alor street market) Another good thing is that it is surrounded by many modern shops/shopping malls which will ease your adaptation to the country. Another thing you might want to consider is that Kuala Lumpur is known as the city that makes luxury living affordable, hence you can find many good quality condo/airbnb's (many with rooftop infinity pools with a view) for a very reasonable price.
Day 1 - If you are arriving to Kuala Lumpur in the morning, go direct to your hotel/airbnb from the airport to start the journey (to drop your bags, if the check-in is not ready yet, you can always ask the front desk to keep your bags till you come back!) The best way to travel from the airport is either by vehicle since the gas costs are cheap in Malaysia or by KL express. Both are safe and reliable options that you can use, if you are a couple people, using a vehicle might be a better idea since the ability to split the cost of the ride. I recommend using the app called "Grab" to get you picked up from the airport to your location of stay. There will be people calling 'taxi, taxi' around the exit area, do not pay attention to them since they are not authorized taxis, you can also go for a prepaid ride if you are not sure about the prices (or afraid of getting scammed), don not have cash or just looking for some more convenience.
Day 2 - Good morning! The time should now be around 7am in the morning, and you should get ready to go have a beautiful walk in the KL Forest Eco Park, (please note it is closed on friday's) if you would like to get a coffee or a breakfast sandwich, please do so before heading to the park, while at the park, you will experience a nice 1-hour walk in a forest in the middle of the city of Kuala Lumpur. After you are done with the morning walk, the time should be around 10am and you should be calling your Grab to go to the Batu Caves. Your next destination is Batu Caves, one of the most well known spots to visit in KL. (If you have the chance make sure to get the guided tour that goes deep into the caves, while going up the stairs, its entrance will be on your left, it might be easy to miss) After your visit to the caves, the time should be around 12.30pm and you should get ready to go to the KL Bird Park. This spot is a personal favourite of mine, where you can see many different sorts of tropical birds. The park is quite big so you should expect to spend around 2 hours inside and be ready to go to our next destination which is Little India. (If you are hungry there is a nice cafe in the bird park as well) By 3pm, you should expect to leave for Little India, while there, walk around and check out how different cultures live in harmony in the beautiful country of Malaysia. Before going to get your bags from the hotel, there is one more place to go if you havent already (which we already mention before, close to your hotel) which is Jalan Alor. It is a perfect place to taste the street food and experience the true Malaysia. While there and if you havent already, please try the fruit called "Durian" which is known as the king of the fruits. Malaysia is known to be the country with the best Durian and you can easily find some of the most popular types of Durian in Jalan Alor (Musang King is my favourite!) After you are done eating, go to your hotel, get your bags and go ahead to the Airport to catch your flight! (or to the Bus stop!)
