    A private driver is the way to go

    Marie_P, Feb 2025
    Enjoyed many of the sites visited although the spice garden was somewhat disappointing. All the other spots were wonderful. Great driver!

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed most of the sites and had a great experience with our driver. We appreciate your thoughts on the Spice Garden and will take them into account for future improvements. We hope to welcome you again for more memorable adventures!

    Outstanding Penang tour

    rachel_r, Aug 2023
    Our tour guide Ronnie was outstanding - lots of interesting local information, history and great recommendations for eating out in Georgetown. Real attention to detail and lots of top tips along the way. Would thoroughly recommend this tour and in particular our generous & helpful guide who made our short time in Penang very special.
