A lively morning tour, learning the history of Penang. We visited a number of exhibits and attractions. We probably would have liked a bit more history and culture and a bit less shopping opportunities, but it was a good tour and the guide was really friendly and knowledgeable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Mohamed. He was informative, flexible and made out morning very pleasant.
Muhammad picked me up promptly in a very comfortable vehicle. He is very well versed in the history of Georgetown/Penang. I particularly enjoyed brunch with him in a locals restaurant. Seeing Harmony road, the mansion, and the museum were real treats. The murals around town are a must see.
We greatly enjoyed this tour. Muhammad was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide and a very safe driver. Each of the locations we visited was wonderful and the tour included some that we would not have found ourselves. Muhammad ensured that we gain easy access to each location and recommended an additional location which was very interesting.
Carol was a wonderful guide for our private half day tour. She showed us everything on the itinerary with great efficiency, getting us tickets where required and getting us to Peranakan Mansion in time for the English tour, answering our questions and offering us insights into Penang history and culture. Thanks to her, her great driving and local connections, we fit much more into half a day than we would have managed on our own! And she also made an extra stop so I could pick up some nutmeg balm and try some nutmeg juice, which was a lovely treat. Thanks, Carol!
It brought insight of the place, where we are, and overall a good tour. We started early so there wasn't a lot of people. Loved it.
This was a fabulous tour. Our driver, Mani, did a great job explaining the history and the stories around the places we visited. Mani was on time to pick us up and looked after us very well. We were given the time to explore places of interest after his informative introduction to them. Which suited us. The tour involved lots walking, stairs and standing. So you need to ensure to have comfortable walking shoes. Also, take water and a snack with you because it's a long day. Also helpful if you have Whatsapp. Although we communicated with Mani via text msg
Driver was friendly and helpful. A bit more introduction of the history of the George Town and the sites we went to would be good
Very smooth sightseeing with a good driver. I really enjoyed the conversation with him about history of Penang and Malaysia.
Really good guide who knew lots of local History. Great places visited and a thoroughly enjoyable day.
