Itinerario
Templo Chayamangkalaram, Templo birmano Dhammikarama, Calles de George Town - Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Wat Chayamangkalaram es un templo tailandés en Penang famoso por su gran Buda reclinado chapado en oro (no un Buda dormido), que con 33 metros, es uno de los más grandes del mundo
Luego, también visitará Penang Hill, donde viajará en un funicular hasta su pico a 833 m sobre el nivel del mar para disfrutar de una espectacular vista panorámica de Georgetown y el continente de Butterworth. Los bungalows coloniales se pueden encontrar alrededor de esta colina debido a que los británicos prefieren permanecer en un clima más fresco en comparación con el ambiente cálido y húmedo de la ciudad.
Después de eso, visitarás el Templo Kek Lok Si. Construido en 1891 como un pequeño santuario, desde entonces se ha expandido para convertirse en uno de los templos más majestuosos y más grandes del sudeste asiático. Desde su fundación en 1930, la "Pagoda de los Diez Mil Budas" es considerada una de las maravillas arquitectónicas más bellas de Penang, ya que es capaz de incorporar 3 culturas en una sola estructura: base octogonal china, nivel medio tailandés y corona birmana. Una estatua de bronce de 30,2m Guan Yin - Diosa de la Misericordia fue erigida en 2002 en el punto más alto del templo. Se puede llegar a través de un ascensor inclinado en el medio. En el camino, nos detendremos para disfrutar de una muestra gratuita del famoso café con leche / té blanco de Penang en Coffee Tree y también en Crown Pewter para una demostración. Sea testigo de cómo se hace la artesanía de Malasia. Fin del recorrido regreso a su hotel en un vehículo con aire acondicionado.

Very knowledgeable guide and great information about Penang
this tour is well worth taking. It is self guided as were were less than 8 (just 2 of us) and they give you a driver. The tour is pretty self explanatory. The views from the top of Penang hill are amazing if you luck out with the weather, as we did. The funicular is a fun ride to experience but fast lane is a MUST or you will have a long wait. Walk up to David Browns cafe and have a cold one up there. The building is well worth seeing. You really only need an hour up here on the hill at most. Lek Lok Si Temple is the highlight of this tour, take your time to walk through the multiple temples and climb up the pagoda. The itinerary says this is only and hour but you can easily spend multiple hours walking through these temples. I would spend more time here than on Penang Hill. Chaiya Mangalaram Thai Buddhist Temple, as well as the Burmese temple across the street, are beautiful. Walk up to the top of the pagoda in the Burmese temple. 45 in both temples if plenty but worth seeing.

The tour was the best of our entire trip to Asia. Our guide, The, picked us up right at the harbor. We were able to spot him easily. Everything was explained to us very well beforehand. The had sent us his WhatsApp number in advance. The lovingly took us to the hotspots in Penang, always against the flow of tourists, so we could explore and enjoy everything at our own pace. He always gave us as much time as we needed and passionately and authentically showed us his city. He fully addressed all our wishes. The tour and especially The were truly fantastic! The car was air-conditioned and had enough space for 4 people. The price-performance ratio was more than reasonable! Many thanks for this wonderful experience - especially to The!

Had a thoroughly enjoyable tour with Josh. He was very friendly and very informative. We loved our visit to Kek Lok Si temple but the outstanding part for us was our trip on the funicular to Penang Hill. Travelling with a guide allowed us to bypass the huge queues and Josh made sure we got the best view on the way up and the way down. Stunning. After Penang Hill we had a visit to a coffee shop and got to taste lots of different flavours of Penang white coffee. All delicious but we particularly liked the coconut and took some home. Wish we had taken more packets as they are quickly running out. After that we had a visit to the Thai Temple Wat Chayamangkalaram before being taken back to our hotel. Would definitely recommend doing this tour.

We were picked up on time in an air conditioned car . Given information on local sites on way to first location. Driver waited at each level which was great given the hot weather. Second location given instructions and fast tickets for Penang Hill where you take a couple of hours to see the sites and travel via the funicular. Meeting at the base was asked if we wanted to return to our hotel but should have been taken on the third leg of the trip which was Kek Loc Si temple and free sample of coffee/ tea at Coffee Tree. Therefore we weren’t taken on the whole tour advertised!

We're pleased to hear that you appreciated the timely pick-up, comfortable vehicle, local information provided, and the assistance during your visit to Penang Hill.
