Penang: excursão gastronômica a pé à tarde

We really enjoyed this tour. Poh was a great guide, really knowledgeable about the history of Penang. We tasted several dishes and snacks which were delicious. For us 3 hours was a perfect amount of time, especially in the heat of the afternoon. I would highly recommend the tour.

This was much more than a food tour. We got to see and hear about many different buildings and aspects of Penang’s architectural growth and historical significance. Our guide, Poh, was very happy, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about Penang’s history and local culture. The food we tried was very local, and I especially enjoyed the white coffee.

What fun! It was our first food tour anywhere, and we couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to this type of tour! Our guide was experienced and knowledgeable, we didn’t feel rushed, we got some good history regarding the food and the area. Highly recommend!

We visited Penang three years ago with friends and did this tour with James. It was so good, we booked to do it with different friends for this trip. We just so happened to get James again. He was so brilliant both times. He was funny, informative and engaging. The food was brilliant and James’ friendly manner made the tour so interesting.

I would strongly recommend this to for anyone looking to expand their knowledge of the amazing foods available here in Penang. This is awesome way of getting out of your comfort zone and enjoying the fabulous food available here . Our guide Poh was thoroughly entertaining, a wonderful hostess in Georgetown, but not only shared with us some of the best food but also very interesting stories. The cultureat Leif here in Penang island. Do yourself a favor and enjoy this food community as I and my tour mates did. I assure you a good time was had by all

For many reasons this tour exceeded my expectations :) Would it be helpful to say that the numerous dishes are spaced out with a walk between each venue and one or two were air conditioned premises so very welcome on one of the hottest afternoons! it felt leisurely and calm, we were a small group and Max was very generous with his time, providing forks and napkins etc and choosing most carefully the ingredients so we didn't receive anything that us westerners might not relish! apart from experiencing so many different flavours, including delicious drinks to suit the hot climate, we covered a great deal of the Chinatown area and saw many fascinating heritage houses with Max explaining about the architecture, history etc Really fascinating trip and thoroughly recommend.

We enjoy the afternoon. Ut was a good combination of food and learning. As it was our first food tour. We were a little nervous about what to expect. But we enjoy the walking and eating, as it broke up the day. It was a really hot afternoon, so Max enjoyed we stayed hydrated with local drinks , which we would never know to order! Which made it even more enjoyable. It was also good that we told him we don’t eat beef, so he was able to work around this and it wasn’t an issue

James was an excellent guide. Informative, funny and knowledgeable. Do not eat anything beforehand as there is so much food to try. The guide can make these tours good or average. James is excellent and you will enjoy your time with him.

We had a fantastic time on this food tour, James was a fantastic guide and we had the chance to try so much food at vendors we would not have been able to find by ourselves. James was very knowledgable about the food and the city and gave us lots of information and recommendations.

Poh was amazing. She was very knowledgeable of Penang’s rich history and added insightful commentary between and at each food stop. We hadn’t expected this level of cultural and historical teaching, but we’re truly impressed! She brought us to a great variety of local cuisine options (we were stuffed by the end!) and felt like we got to sample all the flavors of Penang. Cannot recommend enough.
