Tour di mezza giornata della campagna di Penang Balik Pulau
Descrizione
Balik Pulau è l'altro lato dell'isola di Penang, dove prospera una vegetazione lussureggiante. Circondata dalle montagne e dal mare, ospita villaggi tradizionali malesi e porti di pescatori. In questo viaggio, ti porteremo ad esplorare questo lato nascosto dell'isola, visitando industrie tradizionali come le fabbriche di pasta di noce moscata e gamberetti, ammirando le tradizionali case malesi e, naturalmente, assaggiando le prelibatezze locali come parte dell'esperienza. Sono sicuro che sarà una gita in campagna indimenticabile.

Itinerario
Questa è una fabbrica di noce moscata in funzione da decenni. Durante la visita, esploreremo il frutteto di noce moscata, vedremo il frutto della noce moscata e conosceremo i suoi vari benefici attraverso spiegazioni dettagliate. La fabbrica vende anche una varietà di prodotti a base di noce moscata, offrendo ai visitatori l'opportunità perfetta di portare a casa questo meraviglioso prodotto.
Ci godremo una colazione a Balik Pulau, e ciò che mangeremo dipenderà da quali venditori saranno aperti quel giorno. Ma non preoccuparti: è tutta una deliziosa cucina di Penang. Dopo la colazione, faremo una passeggiata attraverso il villaggio di pescatori per ammirare il porto panoramico, le barche ormeggiate e l'atmosfera rilassante che ti lascerà completamente a tuo agio. Lungo la strada, passeremo davanti ad alcune case tradizionali malesi, dove ci fermeremo per le foto in modo da poter catturare il fascino di questa rara esperienza di campagna.
Un'altra industria di case che visiteremo è la fabbrica di pasta di gamberetti situata a Pulau Betong, un piccolo villaggio di pescatori a Balik Pulau. Osserveremo il processo di preparazione del belacan (pasta di gamberetti) e come viene essiccato sotto il sole caldo.La pasta di gamberetti è un ingrediente essenziale in molte prelibatezze malesi."
Ammireremo la bellissima arte installativa presso il campo di risaie. Questo è uno dei cinque contenitori d'arte trovati a Penang. Lo scenario è altamente Instagrammabile: si può godere della vista delle colline che sorgono nei dintorni e della risaia proprio accanto.
Quando arrivate a Balik Pulau, non potete assolutamente perdervi Assam Laksa. "Assam" significa tamarindo, e questo piatto ha un sapore unico a Penang. Balik Pulau ha gli ingredienti freschi necessari per questa prelibatezza, e anche i locali spesso fanno un viaggio speciale qui per gustarla. È stato anche descritto dalla CNN come uno dei migliori alimenti del mondo. Dopo aver assaporato la Laksa, continueremo provando un'altra specialità Balik Pulau: le focacce di zucchero di canna.

Margaret was a wonderful guide. She showed us so much of rural Penang and told us all about it. She took loads of photos for us, its so nice to have both of us in photos together! She also encouraged us to try local delicacies, food that we would never have eaten without her suggestions. I would highly recommend this trip.
We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your trip with Mag. Thank you for your wonderful review and for sharing your experience with us. Your support means a lot to our team and inspires us to keep delivering the best possible service. We look forward to hosting you again on your next adventure!
The morning tour started with breakfast at a traditional café, with a choice of kaya toast or scones, followed by a stop where you could buy local nutmeg products. The tour continued with a scenic viewing point by the water, then to a rice paddy with a painted shipping container and also included a visit to a church. Lunch was Penang laksa. The guide, William, was helpful and knowledgeable. Overall, it was an enjoyable way to experience the countryside around Penang.
Thank you for your support. We’re glad that you enjoyed the countryside tour, and we hope to see you again in the near future.
Jenny is a warm, knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. I learned so much and it was wonderful to visit small businesses passed through the generations. The bird and plant life in the countryside was awesome. Great photo opportunities and good food too! I enjoyed this trip very much ... well worth the cost.

James, our guide, is a knowledgeable and diligent guide. We thoroughly enjoyed each sight he showed us, and James prevailed on the experts, like the nutmeg farm owner, to tell us about the places we visited. James went over the call of duty, bringing us to a unique breakfast experience, squeezing an extra visit, and regaling us with stories of the places we passed by as well as entertaining us with interesting tidbits about Penang. Even the Penang-born members of our group learnt so many new interesting facts. We enjoyed ourselves so much we stayed longer than we should, but James was proud to show us his Penang. Thank you James for a unique and enjoyable morning.

This trip was wonderful. Jenny our driver guide was very knowledgeable and excited to tell us more about ‘the other side of the island’. Ramadan and Chinese New Year celebrations meant some places were closed but Jenny’s knowledge helped navigate this and create a great experience for us. We got to see the agricultural area and appreciate how this contributes to Penang’s economy. The food stops were delicious and we got to try local food. This is a very special trip where you get to see a very different side of Penang.
Thank you for liking the tour. It was such a great pleasure to spend time with both of you too.
