Your first 30 seconds footage of this video is absolutely excellent. I don't think I've seen KL like I see from your drone view. Brilliant angle.

Absolutely not underrated, literally on the top 10 most visited cities in the word. Surpassed new york, seoul and tokyo.

It depends what you want. KL is like a cross between BKK and SIN. The best part is English is spoken widely at a high level. Shopping is amazing, and sales are insane. As a flight hub, it's cheaper. Though take the express airport train, as drivers on the expressways are nuts. Had a couple of nail biting rides. Now always take the train to Sentral.

Great photography and editing. You really kept the video moving an interesting. Never a dull moment or a shot that lasted too long.

You can venture outskirts of the city centre for more nature and even waterfalls. KL is surrounded by hills, so theres waterfalls within 1 hour from the city centre.

We stayed at Ceylonz too and lovedddd it. We will stay there every time we return to KL if we can. Our room had a view of Petronas Towers and Menara 😍

You haven't try to taste Malaysian national food like Nasi Lemak, Nasi Kerabu, laksa, teh tarik, and various street foods like roti canai, Ramly Burger, satay etc which are classy and tasty.. MALAYSIA is a melting pot of Asian and Western foods and cuisines and also rich in cultures..MALAYSIA is truly Asia and definitely is a unique country with diversity thus you can't compare it with others especially in the SEA countries.. KL is a city of contrast and a city that never sleeps.. it's charming, sophisticated, well organized, modern with beautiful skyscrapers and landscapes (btw you forgot to mention the 2nd tallest building in the world i.e. Merdeka 118 at the foreground of the place that you stayed).. KL is literally less polluted, cheapest petrol and gas in the SEA and warm and friendly people around.. ❤🇲🇾✌️😎

Beautiful footage - definitely need to visit more of the parks during my next visit. Great video!

KL is so green...😮

I love KL - my favourite city. Then I love Bangkok and Singapore. I just love SE Asia in general whether it is Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines etc

I really like your videos where it’s really beautiful! Super sharp images and clear voice recording. Enjoy your stay in Malaysia and you may try to go to some other interesting places like Langkawi , Cameron Highlands or Pahang National Park.

Thanks for sharing. KL is such a user friendly city, with a good vibe as you say. I'm looking forward to chilling out there again.

Malaysian foods are great and cheap just that all the food you ate aren't Malaysian foods. We don't eat those food. Also, KL is a metropolitan city so can't compare to resort city like Bali or some small town in Vietnam in terms of pricing and lifestyle. And if to compare with Bangkok, anyone who likes entertainment should pick Bangkok over KL cause KL is more towards business, education, health and family oriented city. If you want to raise your kids then KL it is. KL is also an affordable luxury city where you can live comfortably in an ultra modern condo with spectacular view compared to other cities around the world where you have to pay arms and legs for a luxurious lifestyle. KL have always been underrated and unpopular compared to other SEA cities and I love it that way! Hope you enjoy your stay. Cheers!

this wasa a great video!! thanks! we reserved a room in that building for august so great to get to see it!

Great video! Really helpful

Great video - thank you

Yiu just lucky, the weather looks so clear . Blue sunny sky ❤😍

Nice vlog!❤❤❤ Meditation is the best way to start our day.

Please keep KL as underrated as it is. One like for the video.

Good work! Keep it up!

Welcome to malaysia Joose, TQ for the video... KL is totally AMAZING ❤❤❤

I'm a Malaysian, and your view on KL is quite correct. It's not a place for beach lovers like Bali,for me, it's suitable for you like Langkawi, Perhentian Island, or Semporna Sabah, but his hotel is more expensive than KL

Too bad and unlucky and unfair you miss the best food of Malaysia, I understand some people like apples, but some like oranges, you are right and I totally agree with you KL is the most underated city in Asia.

Welcome to KL, Malaysia. Thank you for this wonderful video. Beautiful KLCC.

I don't think you have tasted Malaysian food yet. for example, you should try our national dish Nasi Lemak at Wanjo Restaurant or Kak Chuk stall at kampung baru KL... There is a reason why Malaysia's Roti Canai is the number one bread in the world. and Asam Laksa Penang recognized by CNN as the world's no.7 best food. and many more... among the best street food... small roadside stalls, and many more... malay malaysians food, chinese malaysians food, indian malaysians food, etc... that's how to really taste malaysian food. not only from food delivery service, or fancy lookin restaurants...

I really like your honest opinion, by which I can know the real life

Great video!

Thanks for coming Kuala Lumpur - The Most UNDERRATED City to Live in ASIA

Insane channel. Could be the best travel RU-vidr I've come across.

Glad you went to Kuala Lumpur!

Beautiful Vlog beautiful day beautiful Malaysia

The new drone looks epic bro. Nice! I ended up losing my drone also in Nusa L. Maybe Ill come to KL to get me a new one also. Looks amazing there. Hope you are doing well, brother. Great video as always. 👍

Welcome to Kuala Lumpur 😍 Your video makes KL look amazing beautiful, thank 🙏👍❤❤❤

Great footage man, especially the drone work.

KL is growing so fast with some of the most impressive skyscrapers and global businesses on earth. It's nice to be part of that rapid growth.

Thank you sir for your review

My other account was being weird, thanks for the info on the mic! currently looking at options for multiple wireless mics. Ones that don't pick up every sound on the planet 😂

thanks broth !

Subhanallah, looks beautiful. Hope to stay there for some months

Tq bro, welcome tu Kuala Lumpur, truly asiaaa

I never knew that Malaysia is such a beautiful place. Awesome.

Most restaurants that you went are cater to tourists or business customers, so most food you tried were not typical local food, they are just fusion food. You have yet to venture out to really try the local food and many other things and places. Malaysia has so many places that you can explore. You have yet to know Malaysia at all. I suggest that you get in touch with some locals or some expats that have lived here for sometime who communicate with the locals, and know Malaysia well.

I love the vlog of the Malaysia! Now I want to go. Do you have the link of the Airbnb you stayed?

That's awesome, is it tough to learn Digital nomad? I am not too fluent in English, but i can turn myself and strive to reach it. That's great channel. One more subscribed . Congrats.

16:54 As I know, most digital nomads under ‘DE Rantau digital nomads visa programme’ prefer staying in #Penang Island ( #Georgetown ) than Kuala Lumpur & there’re digital nomads stayed in #Langkawi Island as these 2 islands have international airports.

Great video Jose. Thank you. Sent you a message... JK

The travel insurance you use, Safety Wings, have you ever had to use it? If yes, was it an easy process? You got your money back etc?

NICE Place. Very Nice. It’s very nice. Everything is Nice. Nice one. Nice!

You seem like such a nice guy. i like your videos

Hey I didn't know they charge to go to the eco park under KL tower.. It used to be free of charge😊

Which is the best seasons / months? (Less rain)

Great video ❤ Can you tell us the name of the camera you use

Keep it underrated, we don't want ended up like Thailand.

What camera do you use?? I am so curious, the quality is amazing! And it seems easy to take with you such as on a run. Is that a rodecaster mic too?

*Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾Truly Asia Good foods, rainforest good beach & others many More Enjoyed thanks sharing good videos* 🇲🇾♥️💖..💗💗🥰🇲🇾💖💗♥️💝🇲🇾 *Welcome to Malaysia, Malaysian likes to lepak2 at mamak restaurant drink teh Tarik - you can joining me to or any Msian if you likes , is no problem for Malaysian 🇲🇾❤️💝💖🧡💖💝❤️🇲🇾*

Your apartment looks great, I can’t wait to go and stay there. How long do you plan to stay in Kuala Lumpur?

How are hotel prices in Kuala Lumpur? Is a ten day stay enough to visit the major tourist attractions in Malaysia?

For your information ... From January to November 2023.. Malaysia ranked no.1 the most visited country in Southeast Asia with 26.1 million visitors and Thailand ranked no.2 with 24.6 million visitors...Singapore and Indonesia far below.....

Bear in mind, the ringgit fell from 4.20 to 4.80 to 1 usd. The food cost went up. It is costly for locals too if imported food stuff.

Hi Joose, and thanks for the informative video. I too like the apartment building you selected but cannot find it on Airbnb. Can you point me in the right direction? And enjoy your onward travels.

Emang gw akuin KL itu bagus skylinenya di Banding ibu kota indonesia is jakarta

Early morning is the best time to be in KLCC.. not many people like at night.

KL is not a city of digital nomad. But it is good for people who want to settle down permanently, like expats or retirees. For that reason, probably you can't find many friends because there is simply not many of the kind (digital nomad) in KL as compared to places like Bali and Da Nang.

The beautiful thing about KL is the cost of living is relatively lower than Singapore or Bangkok.

2 years ago was covid ;) No one come to malaysia, and all property owners are loosing tone of money . Right now, the price is just back to pre covid period

I'm Irish, I lived in KL for 2 years. You get to see all of Asia if you live in Malaysia. The food is great there too. Hah, sometimes I think about Malaysia when I am in the cold depths of the Irish winter.

what an apartment! how much is that? o did i miss that bit..? ah, 33 usd a night would be pricey per month. awesome view

Welcome enjoy Travelog weekend holidays in KL city mlysia 🇲🇾 ' Next time try menu buger'Ramly 🍔🍔 popular tourist b'pecker in Malaysia

prices dropped due to covid man, everywhere. i had an amazin seafront place in Vietnam, 50% off and around 300 usd a month

Wowww....

Can u suggest more of roof top restaurants?

Underrated country..

Do you have any license issues using the drone in cities like KL?

Just a note that if you a vegan and travelling to KL its not that hard to find food. There are vegan Chinese restaurants to serve the vegan Taoist community, and if you go to Petaling Street you should eat at The Hungry Tapir. The Malaysian Platter there is super awesome and completely vegan. Sala in Hartamas serves delicious vegan local noodles and nasi lemak too. And really, most restos can special make a vegan version, just ask. Esp as you are white they will be happy to entertain your request lol.

Love KL ❤❤❤❤

Duude 2:47 that view is insane

hi Joose. KL V vs Da naang (Vietnam). which like it most ?

I don’t agree with you about Fashion and exclusive brands. Iam from the Netherlands. And Exclusive brands are more expensive in Msia. Sometimes iam even shocked 😅 Simple Armani jacket in the Netherlands about 150 Euro! And in KL I saw the same for 2000RM 😂 For exclusive brands even Gucci, LV, Max Mara, Tods, Europe is much cheaper. I don’t come for the fashion but for relaxing, enjoy the food and weather.

Just let it underrated. Too much foreign tourist will affects local culture, ecosystem, & environment.

Do you think it can be also a place to go with your family, or rather a place for digital nomads, young couples etc.?

It's strange that all the stuff you have eaten aren't typical malaysian food at all. Malaysian food is among the best in the world.

Hi how much was your rent in KL please?

Please come to Cameron Highlands. And stay at our place ☺️🙏🏼 #mountainguide #pmgch #thebackyardglamping

Do not stay in the cities. Go to towns like ipoh, taiping, kuching, kota kinabalu. Obviously cities will cost more example jb, georgetown, kl.

Where did u rent your motorbike?

❤❤❤

see the second tallest tower in the world and taste the no 1 ranking best roti

Would you please share you Airbnb ? Thank you

Now this place is twice as expensive!

Hi, what camera do u use? Thankx

For how long did you get that apartment?

Have been there for a while this year, nice people, but not much to do except shopping malls, dating is totally boring and difficult. Bangkok wins 10 times

You stayed at Ceylonz suites?

What about malaria?

KL is more than CBD, there are far more superior places to work and stay at more affordable , and malls are everywhere in Malaysia

Is it still 0 income tax for digital nomads in KL?

In terms of food, the food you ate aren’t local authentic Malaysian cuisine, you should go to the night markets etc to try real Malaysian dishes

Thank you for your nice review. There is just one thing that you probably may not qualify to judge just yet i.e Malaysian foods. What you had in this video did not represent Malaysian cuisine. Let your palate do the exploration and it will tell you the real things.
