Embark on an exquisite 8-hour night tour that promises to immerse you in Melaka's rich history and irresistible charm. The tour begins at 2:00 pm, where our driver guide will pick you up from your hotel and take you on a 2-hour scenic journey to Malacca. Along the route, your guide will provide insights into Malacca's history and its status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Our first stop is the famous St. Peter's Church, a Roman Catholic church erected in 1710 by the Portuguese. Admire the church's stunning architecture while learning about its place in Malacca's religious history. After having a quick photo stop at St. Peter's Church, you move on to explore the Dutch Square. The Dutch Square, with its red-colored buildings, recall recollections of the past when the Dutch dominated Malacca. You will witness the Stadthuys, which functioned as the official residence of Dutch administrators and the Queen Victoria Fountain, built in 1901 to mark Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. Right beside it lies the Christ Church. This crimson-colored Protestant church, built in 1753, exhibits Dutch colonial architecture and serves as a symbol of Malacca's heritage. You will then make your way up to St. Paul's Hill, where you’ll witness the ruins of St. Paul's Church, which was built by the Portuguese in 1521. The panoramic views of Malacca from here are stunning, as are the ruins of this historic church situated on the summit of St. Paul's Hill. After visiting the ruins of St. Paul’s Church, you then descend to see the iconic A’ Famosa, the remains of a 16th-century Portuguese stronghold. The fortress, built by the Portuguese in 1511, was taken by the Dutch in 1641 and substantially destroyed by the British in the 18th century. After visiting the A' Famosa and listening to the the historical insights given by our driver guide, you will witness the Straits of Malacca and important landmarks such as the Independence Building and Memorial Club House. You walk your way to Jonker Street in Chinatown, famous for its vibrant atmosphere, antique shops and delicious street food which are really intriguing to observe in an old authentic street/building. Historical landmarks such as Chinese temples and the Hang Kasturi Mausoleum are roughly in the middle of the street. As the night falls, take a classic trishaw ride through Malacca's streets to see the city's charm. Sit back and relax while your trishaw driver pedals past historical sites, providing a unique perspective on the city's vibrancy. Our tour ends with a magnificent boat ride down the Melaka River. The boat departs from the main jetty at the Melaka River and takes passengers on a relaxing tour along the gorgeous canal that encompasses riverfront buildings, bridges, and landmarks that are illuminated by colorful lights. After the Melaka River cruise, you head back to the vehicle to return to Kuala Lumpur, where our driver guide will drop you off at your hotel to conclude your wonderful Malacca Night Tour.
