Putrajaya Tour with Traditional Boat Cruise

This half-day tour explores Putrajaya, Malaysia's planned federal administrative capital, taking in its modern government buildings, mosques and landscaped gardens before finishing with a cruise on Putrajaya Lake. The tour runs for around four hours with a driver-guide and vehicle included throughout.

Touring Putrajaya's landmarks

Putrajaya was purpose-built as Malaysia's administrative centre, often described as an intelligent garden city, and the tour spends its first part driving past government buildings, monuments and mosques, giving a sense of how the city was planned around wide boulevards and formal gardens. Your English-speaking driver-guide points out the notable buildings along the route and can answer questions about the city's layout and history as you go, and the tour moves at an easy pace so there is time to stop for a closer look at the sites that interest you most.

Cruise on Putrajaya Lake

The tour's centrepiece is a cruise on Putrajaya Lake, a manmade lake spanning around 650 hectares and crossed by several architecturally distinct bridges. The boat ride gives a different vantage point on the city than you get from the road, with views back toward the government buildings and gardens along the shoreline. It is a relaxed way to close out the sightseeing before heading back, and it works well as the day's highlight after a morning spent mostly on land.

Putrajaya's mix of landscaped parks, waterfront promenades and modern architecture make it a popular stop for photographs, and the tour gives time at a few of these spots to take pictures before returning to your hotel.

A roundtrip hotel transfer is included with this tour, and Rayna's local team handles the booking and support around the day, so help is available if your plans change before the tour date.
