    Good experience for my first visit in Lost World of Tampun.
    I had a wonderful trip at here. The room is nice. The receptionist (Haikal) is so friendly. He explains every step and instructions clearly. It really help those who come here first time (like me) get to the destination (room, breakfast place, theme park) easily. Unfortunately it was a rainy day, so we cannot spent much time in the Hot spring theme park. Just one suggestion, I wish the breakfast have more variety of choice. Overall is good.

    I feel like i came and visit my family and have fun
    the park was great. the petting zoo was filled with variety and animals were in better shape compared to other places i’ve been. the fire show are a stunner! i went during the weekdays so no queues. and i can deal with a 2yo. he enjoyed it so much. back at the hotel, the staffs treatment was excellent. kind, considerate, accommodating and friendly. I had a fall during my stay, they made sure to follow up and let the rest team know a guest had a fall and check in on me. The fall was not in any part of their properties but they took extra care! Preya, alya, jaspreet(i might have gotten her name wrong, shan. and the one responding my booking message as well as the boys handling the traffic. just a marvelous stay under the care of marvelous team

    Great rides
    Dear Sunway Lost World of Tambun Team, I recently visited your park and wanted to share my overall positive experience with the exciting rides and attractions. However, I would like to bring to your attention some concerns regarding the food and beverage services. While the rides were fun and interesting, I found the cost of food and drinks to be quite high. Specifically, the Teh Tarik at the Tin Valley costing RM 8.00 was unexpectedly expensive. Additionally, the service for the Teh Tarik was quite slow, taking 45 minutes for them to be served. I understand that pricing may vary, but the combination of high prices and extended wait times for a simple drink can impact the overall enjoyment of the visit

    Amazing Place and Team!
    We held our teambuilding event at Sunway LWOT, utilizing their event hall and some venues within the theme park. I want to extend my gratitude to those who supported us throughout the events, especially: - Nick & Uma, who were flexible and accommodating to most of our requests, even those that came in on short notice. These two individuals deserve special mention as they were the ones I approached the most. :) - Next, Kausliah and Jit were incredibly helpful in ensuring all the rooms and luggage were handle well in good order. - Last but not least, I'd like to thank Arzu (if I remember his name correctly) for staying back late at Masina's Lake Side for one of the Karaoke session. Our group truly enjoyed and greatly appreciated the hospitality provided by your team!

    Lost World of Tambun - Great for families
    Was on an extended family (there were 12 of us) trip to Malaysia. Lost World of Tambun was the second stop. Thumbs up to Amy and Alya who processed our check-in with a smile. The rooms were ok however my wife and I were given a room that was opposite rooms that were undergoing renovation where there was a lot of renovation noises such as knocking and banging. Lost World of Tambun - Please make sure that you do not do this to other guests. Otherwise, the Theme Park and Water Park were great and the staff manning them were really very nice and friendly. Recommended for families who do not want to contend with the crowds at Sunway Lagoon though there are no shopping centres nearby there are a lot of rustic places to visit and makan.

    FAMILY DAY
    I absolutely love holidaying at Sunway Lost World of Tambun! I recently organized a family day there, and from the paperwork to the pricing and the experience upon arrival, Sunway truly exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly helpful, and the place itself is simply amazing. I can't wait to visit again in the future!

This is best trip for all of us. We really enjoyed everything there kids enjoy the luminous forest we adult enjoy the heated pool. The petting zoo was great it was great fun for both kids and parents definitely will go again. The only negative was the Indian restaurant overly priced not worth for the food they simply charging up the sky we left with no choice and service was very poor,

Hi. Thank you very much for sharing your comments and your review with us. It is very much appreciated. We're glad that our theme park was to your liking! Firstly, pertaining to the prices of food and beverage and some facilities (i.e swan lake kayak), our prices are comparable to mall food courts, cinemas and theme parks in Asia. We've taken notes of your concerns and have given the feedback to our staff for further discussion. We will take your review for our future improvement as we make your next experience a better one ^_^ Thank you and we hope to see you again

On last 5 & 6 March, my friend and I went to the Sunway Lost World of Tambun for a short holiday. We chose the Staycation Glamping package offered by the theme park. The glamping package for 2 pax includes glamping, buffet breakfast x 2, theme park entrance x 2 and night park entrance x 2.

We've never been to this theme park so we didn't know what to expect. But oh boy, we were blown away from A to Z. The theme park staff especially the glamping staff were excellent. They treated us like kings. The glamping staff drove us to every part of the park with a tourist buggy. What makes our experience extra special? My friend and I were the only glamping guests at the time. Additionally, our glamping is located inside the theme park so the experience was surreal. The tent was great. The glamping area was amazing. The shared bathroom was clean. First class in everything, hands down. My only advice is to bring mosquito repellant. Oh yes, worry not. There's a wifi connection.

My friend and I are planning to return again at the end of this year. See you then!

Made the mistake of bringing the family to this place over the weekend. This place has the infrastructure of a world class theme park but the way it is managed is no where to that standard. This being a weekend should not be an excuse.

First was the hassle of getting into the park. We had already purchased tickets online, so getting the armband should have been a seamless process. Only that it was not. We had been lining up for almost an hour, there were no proper markers to indicate where one should line up. Then we were told to go out to the counters outside, stood in line again to get our wrist bands. I can see that kids were getting restless and parents were getting annoyed. Very messy and unorganised.

Once inside, if you were just walking around the venue without having to interact or have to line up at attractions/food outlets, you can save yourselves from annoyance, but if you have to, that's when you realise how it can spoil your holiday.

Imagine this, there are multiple food kiosks and food trucks, the catch is, you cannot buy food directly there. You have to line up until ur feet give way at the cashier first, then line up once again at the kiosk. Simply put, you have to waste time lining up twice for one single hot dog. Efficiency doesn't exist here. And it would not take that long for them to realise this is happening and for them to fix it, but no one seemed to care.

Then the annoyance at the kiosks. If you are selling chicken and rice, it would be no surprise that people would be coming to get that. These kiosk operators start packing only when patrons hand over the receipts. Why not start packing these food packets and churn them out as someone hands them out efficiently in a time saving way?

Would I return? Perhaps not. Might just take a flight to Singapore to USS. The time spent on the flight might be less than the time spent in the lines to enter and to get food here anyway

Got my tickets online which were cheaper than walk in rates. Fairly empty of a weekday but I would imagine the water park gets really crowded on weekends.

The petting zoo allows for a fair amount of interaction with the animals and staff were well trained and helpful throughout. The amusement park is relatively small but it's not the main attraction.

Did not have a chance to visit the night park but between the zoo and the water park I doubt any child would leave disappointed.

Did a last minute decision to visit LWOT and stayed at the Malayana floating villa @ glamping area. Our experiences from pick up to check out was way beyond expectations. The warm welcome of Mr Eto"s team made our stay so memorable that we are planning another trip soon. I am personally grateful to Mr KAMAL for successfully reawakened the curiosity in my teenage children with his informative and friendly approach throughout their communication. Others in the team like Mr Syahadan and Mr Harith also made sure that our visit was well taken care of. Thank you guys!

About the floating villas... i want to be selfish so that it will remain our secret little getaway... but then again, the tranquility and picturesque glamping grounds is simply too wonderful fantastic to be missed... i can only pray that LWOT maintain this magical place.

The theme park has some positives and negatives. The petting zoo was really good. This is the first time we actually touched a mara, capybara, giraffe and camel. The tin valley could do with more multimedia activities. The amusement park needs more family rides. Most of it is not suitable for small children. The Food Street looked really sad and you can get better similar dishes in Ipoh for half the price. The Dulang Tea House especially the roti timbuktu and rice tea were really good but the place has too many flies.
The management should consider seperate tickets for just certain sections. I would go again only to the petting zoo if they only sold tickets for that section but not at the ticket price for the whole park.

This will be the darkest part of our month in Malaysia.

Sunway group ought to be ashamed of themselves for marketing this as family fun and then marketing the business while you queue for rides! Who does that?!?! See the pictures for the marketing sales pitch as we queued for the “roller coaster”.

The price to get in seemed ok until we got in and it was pathetic at best with dirty water that smelled of feet (not chlorine, so I’m hoping we don’t get some communicable disease from accidentally swallowing some water. ) you also had to pay even more to do some activities like a haunted house or paddle boats. Ridiculous.

Speaking of water, you can’t bring drinking water in. The “security” checks your bags - not for weapons, but for food and drink. I can understand not bringing in cola or food, sure, but DRINKING water?!? Then paste the UN sustainable goals all around including drinking water. You could buy drinks… at 4.50 for a small bottle of water. Total rip off and how is adding more plastic bottles good for the environment?

The day was awful, our three kids just wanted to leave. We’ve had the most amazing month in Malaysia and I wish we hadn’t come here to ruin what might have been the perfect holiday.

Hotel should apply limited customers for breakfast, during peak season just allowed who stayed with booked breakfast, do not allowed walk in customers. I have to stand 15 min to wait the vacant table, with my knee pain. There have 200 kapcai riders from Kelantan made others visitor not comfortable. Without follow SOP, they blocked the acces to the theme park.

We find it relaxing to have hot spring at night (maybe too hot in some pool), we enjoy the amostphere. So many people visit here, they look like local people with some unlimited entry pass, they bring big water bottle and had not rent locker. As the locker rental is high and water is expensive inside. There are also a light park to walk after a 5 mins show.

Worth your money. Lots of activity. Some require additional entrance fee like haunted house or swan boat ride. Can dip in the hotwater springs if you're feeling cold. A lot of food stalls inside with reasonable price. The fire show starts at 9pm and was so much fun.
