Penang Instagrammable Tour with Lunch
Beskrivning
Penang utses av CNN Travel till en av de bästa 2019 turistdestinationerna i världen. Börja med inre George Town för de ikoniska väggmålningarna eller gatukonsten. Fortsätt sedan till Khoo Kongsi, ett historiskt klanhus som står som ett bevis på det rika arvet från de tidiga kinesiska bosättarna i Penang. Förundras över dess invecklade arkitektur och utforska de ovärderliga artefakterna som berättar en berättelse om kulturell assimilering mellan malajer och kineser. Nästa stopp är Kek Lok Si-templet, det största buddhistiska templet i Malaysia. Bli fängslad av dess storhet och njut av den andliga atmosfären som genomsyrar varje hörn. Tempelkomplexet erbjuder hisnande panoramautsikt över ön, vilket ger stora möjligheter till fantastiska Instagram-bilder. Ta fler bilder under gatumatslunchen, eftersom lokala rätter som "Laksa", "Char Koay Teow" och "Cendol" inte bara är läckra utan ser riktigt bra ut för Instagram-flödet.

Penang gatakonst fick ytterligare en utmärkelse efter att ha tilldelats den 7: e mest instagrammade staden för gatukonst i världen. Genom att kombinera bilder i livstorlek, plus originalstycket eller 3D-föremål, är väggmålningar i Penang "interaktiva och verkliga". Den litauiska konstnären Ernest Zacharevic vitaliserade George Town med sin unika roll på gatukonst med barn. Bitar som 'Barn på cykel' och 'Pojke på motorcykel' är så coola att du inte kan låta bli att posera med dem. Promenera nedför körfälten och beundra några av de finaste ”fria souvenirerna” från Penang.
Pinang Peranakan herrgård är en ståtlig herrgård, renoverad för att återspegla förflutna dagar av den kinesiska bosättningen i Penang. Detta magnifika radhus är det kinesiska Kapitan Chung Keng Kwees tidigare bostad och kontor. Han var en Hakka tin-gruvarbetare från 1800-talet och ledare för Hai San. Pinang Peranakan Mansion är fylld med mer än 1 000 antikviteter och samlarföremål. Bostaden är unik och har olika kinesiska arkitekturer. Radhuset, byggt på 1890-talet, innehåller kinesiska snidade träpaneler, med engelska golvplattor och skotska järnverk.
Khoo Kongsi, formellt känd som Leong San Tong Khoo Kongsi, är ett utsmyckat och historiskt klanhus i George Town, Penang. Anses vara en av de största i Malaysia, är det ett betydande emblem för Kinesiska arv och framgången för den Kinesiska diasporan i Sydostasien.
Ta fler bilder under gatamatslunchen. Penangmat är en blandning av traditionella malaysiska, kinesiska och indiska rätter, liksom fusionskök som Baba Nyonya eller Peranakan som innehåller regionala ingredienser och kinesiska malaysiska kokningsmetoder. Allt kan hittas i hawkercentra och butikshus i hela George Town.

Our tour guide Phillip was 1st class, we saw plenty of interesting sites , Phillip checked in regularly to see if we were happy, we couldn’t have asked for a better day, I highly recommend this tour and Phillip ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We have been a world cruise for 3 months and this was on of our top tours of many. Our guide, Philip was fantastic. He was a local who loved his city, and was proud to show it off. Once we told him my wife loves street art and photography, he went out of his way to show us examples through the city including many “off the beaten path “ alleys with great art. Because we were on a private tour and my wife and I tend to move at fast pace, we were able to visit more sites than were included in the standard tour. Philip made it a perfect day!
We had a fantastic time with our guide Lawrence. The tour was a great blend of art, food, and sightseeing. Having a dedicated driver also helped getting around quickly.
Our guide took us A BUNCH of murals in Georgetown, including a few that were way off the beaten path. It helped having a car to drive between murals; the guide would let us out to walk the immediate area, then pick us up for the next stop. The lunch at the local food market was great; the guide took the time to explain all the stalls/their food to us, then ordered food and drinks. The time allotted for this tour was perfect.
Very good tour made especially extraordinary by our guide and driver, Philip, who was knowledgeable, attentive and professional. His passion for Penang and genuine enjoyment of tour guiding really made this a great experience. As first timers in Penang, this tour gave us all the highlights in one go: art, culture, history and food! We were lucky to have the car to ourselves as no one else booked the tour that day (extremely lucky for us given it was the weekend) so it was convenient to have a place to leave our things. The tour ended with a trip to the Penang White Coffee shop outside Georgetown which, while nice as it offered an opportunity to see more of the city and sample some unusually flavoured coffees from the area (w/ no obligation to buy... wink-wink), you can do without it. Overall a good experience I highly recommend for families or those with elderly... or for super hot/rainy days when walking just won't be appealing!
It was just a driver and did not know much about tourist facts. Driver did not tell me/ tourist that there are a lot of side streets which also have street arts - so, I was a bit disappointed about that, as that was one of my highlights of visiting Penang 🥲 Apart from the above - driver took me all the places on the schedule and he was on time
Good tour - best way to see the best of Penang if you only have a day. Comes with food at a "hawker centre' - eat the way locals do! We had Philip Oh as our guide and he made our day! If you can get him - your whole trip will be worth it! (We had planned to go to Bali but cancelled at the last moment because we heard of an earthquake just off the coast. So we did not plan this trip properly but Philip and the tour saved our holiday.)
This being our first time in Penang, we decided on hiring Tour & Incentive company; and I am glad we did. We used them for round trip transportation from the airport to and from our hotel in Georgetown. We also booked the Instragrammable tour plus the Around Penang Island tour. Philip was our guide and driver for all these trips. He was the best as he made our trips very enjoyable. He is very personable and accommodating. He went above and beyond to make our stay in Penang a positive experience. I highly recommend him and this tour company. Communicating with them is easy and fees are competitive. I will recommend them to friends and family.
