Please give me some idea about the approx taxi fares within the KL city. For example if I go from Aloft hotel to KLCC, how much will be the fare. If I go from Aloft Hotel to KL tower,..fare ! If I go from KLCC to Bukit Bintang...how much will a taxi charge! If I come from Air port to Traders hotel...fare !
About the rails, please educate me as I guess there are two types of rails moving within the city. What is the difference between these two and do they cover different areas. Is travelling by rail is advisable and will it be more economical. Thanks

well the fares are reasonable but the taxi drivers are gonna rip you off just because you are a foreigner.
