Reisroute
Ga mee op een unieke reis naar het Orang Utan-eiland in Bukit Merah, een reservaat dat is gewijd aan het behoud en onderzoek van deze prachtige wezens. Dit eiland beslaat meer dan 15 hectare en biedt een zeldzame kans om Orang Utan van dichtbij te observeren, levend in een semi-wilde omgeving. De beschermde omheining stelt bezoekers in staat om door een tunnel te lopen en de Orang Utans te zien klimmen, spelen en interacteren in hun natuurlijke habitat. Orang Utan-eiland is niet alleen een attractie; het is een belangrijk project dat erop gericht is om het publiek te informeren over het belang van het beschermen van bedreigde diersoorten en hun omgeving. Het eiland ligt aan de rand van de stad, waar de reistijd heen en terug tot 3 uur kan duren.
Loop door de tijd bij Chew Jetty, de grootste en meest intacte historische clansteiger van Penang. Deze nederzetting aan het water maakt deel uit van de Penang Heritage Trail en is gebouwd op palen boven het water, waardoor je een kijkje kunt nemen in de levens van de Chinese immigranten die zich hier ruim een eeuw geleden vestigden.
Duik in de levendige straten van George Town, waar op elke hoek kunst tot leven komt. Deze UNESCO-werelderfgoedlocatie staat bekend om zijn interactieve straatkunst, waarin historische scènes worden gecombineerd met grillige humor. Deze muurschilderingen, gemaakt door kunstenaars van over de hele wereld, waaronder de beroemde Litouwse kunstenaar Ernest Zacharevic, veranderen de stad in een uitgestrekte openluchtgalerij. De straat van George Town is een bewijs van de creatieve geest en culturele rijkdom van de stad.

Leslie was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. We had an excellent day. Great to see the orangutans up close.
We had a lovely time with Leslie. He was thoroughly warm and caring and went out of his way to make our day special. We appreciated the fruit he brought for us to feed the orangutans and the local information he told us. It was great to have a local guide us to some delicious street food and along the jetties. We are so grateful.

Ernest Loh was our fantastic guide for the day. He was a very safe driver and took care of all our needs including a delicious lunch, great coffee, and knowledge of Penang. The Buddhist temples were a highlight of the island before we headed to the Orangutan sanctuary. Ernest got us some one-to-one time with one of the sanctuary’s most beautiful inhabitants - Hiroshi the 11 year old orangutan. It was an unforgettable experience. Thank you for the amazing time and your wonderful photos, Ernest!

We had a fantastic time on this tour. Our guide Ashline picked us up at the cruise terminal. She was very friendly and knowledgable. Ashline brought a large bag of fruit for us to feed the orangutans. There were only 2 other couples at the sanctuary so we were able to get pretty close to the orangutans for some great photos. We then returned to George Town where Ashline stopped to get us some delicious samosas for lunch. Then a tour of the area. We saw the street art & walked along Chew Jetty. We would have spent longer there but the intense heat was too much for us so Ashline returned us to our ship. Highly recommend this excursion.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a fantastic time with Ashline. She truly enjoys sharing Penang’s culture, history, and wildlife experiences with our guests. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed the visit to the orangutan sanctuary and had the chance to get close to the orangutans for memorable photos. We’re also happy that you enjoyed the local samosas and exploring George Town, including the street art and Chew Jetty. We completely understand the tropical heat can sometimes be intense, and we’re glad Ashline was able to adjust the schedule to ensure you remained comfortable throughout the day. Thank you again for your recommendation and support. We hope to welcome you back again for another memorable experience in Penang!
Our guide Leslie was the most wonderful guide. Extremely attentive, knowledgable and went above and beyond to give us a best overall experience. When we were in Bukit Merah, we were taken around by an inhouse guide. She obviously cared deeply about the rescued Orangutans, it showed in her explanations and knowledge. She knew each and every Orangutan's history, personality and likes and dislikes. Also our wonderful Leslie had come bearing fruits and nuts for the animals so we were lucky enough to experience feeding these wonderful animals. The inhouse guide was able to answer all our questions and gave us plenty of time to spend in the island. Following this wonderful trip, Leslie drove us back to George Town and took us to the Jettys. Leslie explained the history of these and how they are now protected. He was very patient while we looked around all the shops and really helped us with our purchases. I feel the whole experience was wonderful and was made 100% better by our guide. So thank you Leslie for being the most wonderful, thoughtful, funny, caring person.
Here’s a warm and professional reply you can post: Thank you so much for your incredibly kind and thoughtful review. We are truly delighted to hear that Leslie made your experience so memorable.

Thank you once again for your support and recommendation. We hope to welcome you back again for another amazing adventure in the future!
Communication was excellent before the tour with. emailed tickets and phone calls the day of the excursion. Ernest, our guide, was kind, considerate, and knowledgeable. He took us to to Khoo Kongsi, a genealogical clan's complex established to improve Chinese immigrants' lives through education, jobs, and health care. From there, we went to the orangutan sanctuary where caretakers feed and train orphaned or abused apes for release into the wild in Borneo. Getting close and feeding these animals was a real highlight. Finally, we drove through Chinese, Indian, and English conclaves in Penang noting the difference in architecture and purpose. Ernest took wonderful photos of us with the orangs and emailed them to us in Whatsapp.
