Getting Here
The Perdana Botanical Garden is situated within the Tun Abdul Razak Heritage Park, which covers an area of more than 170 acres located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Getting there is easy by taking public busses or taxis from any location in the city.
Bus
The garden is located along Jalan Perdana. It is located near the National Museum of Malaysia.
The nearest public transportation hub within walking distance is Kuala Lumpur Sentral railway station. Another option is to take the RapidKL bus B112 from Pasar Seni LRT station. This will drop you at the National Museum which is at the edge of the park.
Taxi
Budget taxis are identified with their red and white colours. There’s an initial charge of RM3 for the first km of your travel. Thereafter, the rate is RM1 for every km. There are also various small surcharges like radio call (RM2) and baggage (RM1 per piece), among others.
Midnight surcharge is applicable on pickups from 00:01-05:59. This surcharge means meter prices are increased by 50% (e.g. at 01:00, if the meter shows RM12, you should pay RM12+6).
Places like KLIA, LCCT, KL Sentral, Menara KL and Sunway Pyramid Mall enforce a prepaid coupon system, which generally work out more expensive than using the meter, but cheaper than bargaining. Taxis from Pavilion Shopping Mall's taxi counter cost the meter with a RM2 surcharge.
