Pulau Ketam Island, Village Life and Blue Mosque Visit

  • Meet your tour guide at a pre-decided location in Kuala Lumpur at 9:00 AM and continue to Port Klang, Malaysia's busiest port, to catch your ferry to Crab Island.

  • Board the ferry to Crab Island. Along the way, enjoy panoramic views of the busy harbour and the mangrove swamps of the nearby islands.

  • Admire the floating houses of the village as they come into view. Perched casually on long wooden stilts, these dwellings are suspended about one to ten metres above sea level.

  • Enjoy an authentic Malaysian lunch at a local seafood restaurant.

  • Explore the island on foot or by rented bicycle. See how locals fish, interact with the villagers, and understand the Pulau Ketam way of life.

  • On the way back to your hotel in Kuala Lumpur, stop by Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah Mosque, also known as the Blue Mosque. Built in 1974, this beautiful structure is the country's largest mosque and the seventh-largest mosque in Southeast Asia by capacity.
