An excellent and varied trip in a comfortable and air conditioned car for our group of 4. Our driver and guide, Sam, was both very personable and knowledgeable. Seemed we covered more on our trip than the details on the itinerary with frequent stops where we were out of the car with Sam who was very happy to show us aspects we would have otherwise missed.
Vejay is a gem of a guide. We had an issue with time - out docking time changed and he waited for us - it just was appreciated so much. He had his route planned to show us how interesting and diverse the city is. He has a huge amount of knowledge and the history of this bustling city. He went out of his way to make our time with him as interesting as could be. He took us to places we wouldn’t know about, quirky yet fascinating- art walls and echoing ceilings!! His local knowledge came in useful as I needed to take out more cash - temples don’t always accept cash !! He took us to places that a bus could not access. Vejay was great as his local knowledge answered so many of our questions about everyday life and the social structure of the area. So in short we were very pleased with our time with him. Highly recommended!!

Unforgettable culinary escapade. If you're a fan of rich, aromatic curries and traditional Mamak fare, this is the place to be. Its preserving the essence of Malaysian cuisine shines through in every dish they serve. I must say, it was an authentic culinary experience that left my taste buds dancing with delight.
We had a wonderful day with Aldred. He was a first class guide who made our trip to Penang most enjoyable. Loved his stories and he took us to some great places.
A visit to Penang won't be complete without visiting its numerous street art. Here is the George Town street art I encountered during my brief stay.
My family and I were really excited to tour George Town, Penang. While our tour guide was courteous and friendly, we felt that the tour did not live up to our expectations. The highlight of the tour was our trip up to Penang Hill. We spent approximately 2 hours on Penang Hill, which didn't leave much time for touring the rest of George Town. In order to manage the time in a more effective manner, we felt that our tour guide should have accompanied us to the top of the Penang Hill. So, for the remainder of the tour we drove by the other historic sites. The only other stop we made was at a chocolate store which we could have done without.
Thank you for your review.Your feedback helps us get better. We value our customers opinions and would like to add few points on top. As you mention this highlight of the tour is Penang Hill.we give more time to spend at there and remaining time to other places.we recomend our customers choose full day tour to explore penang island with this tour. We will use the feedback to make us better. Again, thank you for your feedback!
