I've just got a flight from DXB to AKL early next year. One of the options is to go with Malaysian airlines via KUL.

I was looking at doing a stopover. Judging from some trip reports here, KL is only worth 2-3 days. Hence I was thinking of the below to fill out 4-5 days:

Day 1: Arrive at 7:35am at KUL. See city sights.

Day 2: Do half-day tour in KL, and more city sights.

Day 3: Fly to Jakarta and do some sight seeing.

Day 4: Do tour around Jakarta and more sights.

Day 5: Fly back to KUL, and then take evening flight to AKL.

I also have a 8 hour transit in KUL on the way back to DXB. Is it worth heading into the city during this time?

Any thoughts and feedback would be most appreciated.
