Food tour George Town
We immensely enjoyed the food tour by Sally ! It was beyond informative as she captivated us with all interesting facts and history of the area . It was the first thing we did after landing a couple of hours before , which gave us a good understanding of the area ! It honestly was the best thing to do the moment we stepped out our hotel door & now we have about 10 places we are familiar with ! We also ate so much food. Sally was so invested that we felt it was $ well spent !

The best experience I had in Penang
Where to start? Everything about this experience was fantastic. Mr. Mok and Mrs. Amy are just wonderful hosts. The Chowrasta market tour was great and I learned so much. Mr Mok seems to know everyone and the vibes were just great. His enthusiasm for all things Penang is incredible.
Both Mok and Amy provided so much insight into Penang history and Perenakan culture.
The class ran very smoothly with the help of another kind assistant and there was always consideration and tips given for how to best recreate things back in our home countries.
I left feeling enlightened, enriched and with a full belly AND left overs to boot!
I cannot recommend this highly enough! Thank you both to Mr Mok and Mrs Amy for such a wonderful day

Great day experiencing Penang cultural wonders!
Mr Joey was a fantastic driver - arrived on time, clean car, very hospitable to show us around beautiful Penang in particular the Kek Lok Si Temple followed by a lovely local lunch at a local hawker stall.
En route home we visited the local Batik Factory - the management team showing exactly how they are made by hand.
Finishing the day with coffee and cake to celebrate my birthday ... what a wonderful day that we will remember for a long time.

Great way to see orangutans and Penang old city.
Peggy our tour guide was excellent. She explained how the day would go before we left and kept the information going throughout the tour. The orangutans were fabulous. Their in house staff were fantastic explaining what they were doing for the orangutans on the island. Penny brought along food and drinks so we could feed the orangutans. We then went back to Penang for a tour of the Jetties and the old town. Can definitely recommend this tour.

We booked this tour after doing a similar back of a bike experience in Saigon. It did not disappoint! Jacky and Din were absolutely fantastic. Super experienced riders who took us to local spots and made sure we got to enjoy food like a Penang local. Highly recommend, especially for a first night in Penang/George Town, to try the local cuisine.

Good variety of experiences
Jeff was our driver/guide for the day and he was excellent - he picked us up promptly and we asked to deviate from the standard tour and see some specific sights, which was no problem - we visited the Goddess of Mercy temple, a couple of local villages, Kek Lok Si Temple, Penang Hill, and ended with a walk around the Armenian Street area of Georgetown. Jeff accompanied us as we walked around, and was able to tell us all about the things we were seeing and the buildings we were walking in/through - his knowledge was amazing1
Highly recommend this trip - it can be varied, from the calmness in the hills to the hustle and bustle of Georgetown - and the itinerary can be flexible if required. If you get Jeff as your guide you will definitely get lots of valuable insights and information.

Great trip with Eddie and Henry
This was such a fun activity. We went at the pace the group wanted. Excellent transport to and from the venue (with a very kind detour, suggested by Henry our driver so some of the group got to visit another attraction). Eddie our guide was brilliant - good at explaining things we saw. His sense of humour was amazing. I'd highly recommend this activity 👌

A great tour with a wide range of food and a great way to see and experience the historic Penang. Junie was wonderfully knowledgeable about both the food and the history of Penang, and she had genuine relationships with many of the vendors, which only enhanced the experience.

Simply exceptional!
Simply exceptional! Our guide Danny, is the most amazing man, truly such a nice person. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. Five stars is not enough. A great private tour and you learn so much. My partner Vivianne and I would highly recommend this tour and if you can, ask for Danny. To Danny, many, many thanks for the tour and all your kindness. Truly appreciated!

My friend and I had a Full Day Flexi Private Tour in Penang Island with our tour guide Jackie. He picked us up from the hotel on time, asked us about our preferences and made sure he covered everything we wanted to see.
He was very informative about all the places we visited snd I would highly recommend him as a tour guide and happily use his service again.

Highly recommended private tour
Our guide for the day was Mr. Josh Lim. He was very knowledgeable about Penang and the Malaysian culture. Our tour included all of the best things to see and do in Penang. We appreciated having a guide who was able to translate and assist when needed. We highly recommend this tour.

Best food tour ever
This is the best food tour ever! The guide, Grace was fantastic and the food was mostly delicious except for some dishes that were a little strange to us. Walking tour but not extensive. Do not eat breakfast because it's a lot of food. I would not miss this tour!
