    This was an amazing food and cultural tour with a wonderful tour guide, Garrick! If you’re looking for a perfect combination of delicious food, cultural sites, and friendly local insights, this is your tour! We took two teenage kids and all four of us had a wonderful experience. Garrick was fun, hospitable and showed us a wonderful slice of Penang.

    Awesome introduction to Malaysian food by JS!

    Anonymous, Feb 2026
    This was an awesome experience! JS Lim was our guide, and he was outstanding! He gave us a great tour of both the local food as well as some local history. We had an opportunity to try Nyona, Indian, Chinese, and local foods. We tried all different drinks and fruits. I would definitely request him personally if we ever wanted to go on a tour again.

    Best option for food AND cultural sites

    A casual stroll around George Town and sampled the diversity-ness of the local food/drinks (nonalcoholic) - Chinese, Indian, Indonesian, and Malaysian. Not fancy food but tied to the local lore. A very pleasant experience.

    Great tour to start off your trip to Penang. the abundance of food stalls can be overwhelming when you arrive, but Garrick did a great job of introducing all different types of street food to us. Highly recommend !
