If you leave KL city and go to the surrounding areas, such as Petaling Jaya or Subang Jaya, it becomes more manageable (entering KL from there feels like a 5-10C temperature increase). It gets better the further you go of course, but for tourists that may be a bit tricky as it won't be as easy to get around (at least not without a car).

I was in KL for a business event. Can't say I cared for it much but it was just a few days. Didn't interact with public transit at all.

Did like Penang afterwards though.
