Maryam nous a fait passer une excellente journée à Kuala Lumpur. Elle nous a emmené dans des lieux convenus ensemble, dans une voiture très confortable, nous a donné beaucoup d’explications et a su s’adapter à la curiosité et aux questions des enfants. Elle parle parfaitement français. Elle nous a fait également déguster des spécialités. Je ne peux que recommander Maryam pour vos visites en Malaisie !

Maryam m’a donné un itinéraire parfait pour mon voyage à Hong Kong. J’ai emmené mes parents (60 ans et plus) pour un voyage de 7 jours. L’itinéraire était très calme car ils avaient besoin de repos, mais nous avons réussi à visiter la plupart des endroits incontournables. Maryam m’a également donné des adresses gastronomiques incontournables, et oui, nous y sommes allés ! J’ai adoré ce voyage, l’itinéraire était très intéressant et facile à lire, pas un simple fichier Excel. Merci Maryam !

Le séjour avec notre guide s’est très bien passé. Il était très à l’écoute et compréhensif. Nous avons pu faire le tour des éléments phares de la ville et d’en profiter pleinement, c’était génial. Amir a d’incroyables qualités humaines, il a su nous sauver dans des situations délicates lorsque nous ne savions plus quoi faire… Je recommande!!
