Meeting Point. Meet and great with your local guide.

Jalan Hang Kasturi

Discover the flavours of Malaysia’s 13 states through a local coffee tasting experience, paired with must-try dishes, all while hearing the stories behind each dish and the cultures that created them. Come hungry and curious, and let the stories, tastes and soul of Melaka fuel you on our Melaka Flavours Food and Culture Tour.

马六甲海峡文化馆 Melaka Straits Cultural Museum

The Melaka Straits Cultural Museum offers an insightful journey into the rich cultural exchanges that shaped the Straits of Melaka, where traders, explorers, and settlers from across Asia and beyond met for centuries. The museum highlights the region’s vibrant maritime history and the blending of Malay, Chinese, Indian, Arab, and European influences that contributed to Melaka’s unique heritage. A key attraction is the Cheng Ho Voyage Map, which illustrates the legendary admiral’s extensive maritime expeditions during the Ming Dynasty, symbolising Melaka’s vital role as a global trading hub and a crossroads of civilisations.

Arulmiku Poyyatha Vinayaga Moorthy Temple

Built in 1781, is one of the oldest Hindu temples in Malaysia and is dedicated to Lord Ganesha, reflecting Melaka’s long-standing multicultural heritage.

Kampung Kling Mosque

One of Melaka’s oldest mosques, built in 1748, is renowned for its unique blend of Sumatran, Chinese, Hindu, and Malay architectural styles.

Cheng Hoon Teng Temple

Built in 1646, is the oldest functioning Chinese temple in Malaysia, renowned for its exquisite architecture and dedication to the Three Doctrinal Systems of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism.

Jonker Street

Here we will try the popular eatery known for serving nostalgic, home-style Malaysian dishes inspired by traditional recipes passed down through generations. At this stop, we’ll enjoy a taste of local favourites—traditional toast and a refreshing dessert to complete the experience.

Chee Ancestral Mansion.

Heeren Street, also known as Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, is one of Melaka’s most elegant heritage streets, lined with beautifully preserved Peranakan townhouses. As part of the walking tour, we’ll make a cultural stop here to learn about the Baba Nyonya heritage—exploring the unique blend of Chinese and Malay traditions that shaped Peranakan culture, from their architecture and lifestyle to their rich customs and craftsmanship.

Jalan Hang Lekir

No trip to Melaka is complete without tasting its most iconic dish—Hainanese chicken rice balls. Unlike the usual chicken rice, here the fragrant rice is hand-rolled into bite-sized balls and served with tender poached chicken, chilli sauce, and soya dressing. This local speciality is a must-try experience that truly represents Melaka’s unique food culture.

Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock

At this stop, we’ll indulge in a sweet treat beloved by locals—traditional cendol topped with rich gula Melaka syrup. To complement it, we’ll also sample a variety of colourful Nyonya kuih, bite-sized Peranakan delicacies made with coconut milk, pandan, and glutinous rice, offering a true taste of Melaka’s heritage desserts. End on a sweet note.
