Penang landsbygden Balik Pulau Halvdagstur
Beskrivning
Balik Pulau är den andra sidan av Penang Island, där frodig grönska frodas. Omgiven av berg och havet, är det hem för traditionella malajiska byar och fiskehamnar. På denna resa kommer vi att ta dig med för att utforska denna dolda sida av ön, besöka traditionella industrier som muskot- och räkpastafabriker, beundra de traditionella malajiska husen och naturligtvis smaka på de lokala delikatesserna som en del av upplevelsen. Jag är säker på att det blir en oförglömlig landsbygdsresa.

Detta är en muskotfabrik som har varit i drift i årtionden. Under besöket kommer vi att utforska muskotfruktträdgården, se muskotfrukten och lära oss om dess olika fördelar genom detaljerade förklaringar. Fabriken säljer också en mängd muskotprodukter, vilket ger besökarna den perfekta möjligheten att ta med denna underbara produkt hem.
Vi kommer att njuta av en frukost i Balik Pulau, och vad vi äter beror på vilka leverantörer som har öppet den dagen. Men oroa dig inte – allt är utsökt Penang-mat. Efter frukost tar vi en promenad genom fiskebyn för att beundra den natursköna hamnen, de dockade båtarna och den avkopplande atmosfären som får dig att känna dig helt lugn. Längs vägen kör vi förbi några traditionella malajiska hus, där vi stannar för foton så att du kan fånga charmen i denna sällsynta landsbygdsupplevelse.
En annan stugindustri vi kommer att besöka är räkpastafabriken som ligger i Pulau Betong, en liten fiskeby i Balik Pulau. Vi kommer att observera processen att göra belacan (räkpasta) och hur den torkas under den heta solen.Räkpasta är en viktig ingrediens i många malaysiska delikatesser."
Vi kommer att beundra den vackra installationskonsten på paddyfältet. Detta är en av de fem containerkonstverk som hittades i Penang. Landskapet där är mycket Instagrammable - du kan njuta av utsikten över bergen som reser sig i omgivningen och paddyfältet precis bredvid den.
När du kommer till Balik Pulau, kan du definitivt inte missa Assam Laksa. "Assam" betyder tamarind, och den här rätten har en smak som är unik för Penang. Balik Pulau har de färska ingredienser som behövs för denna delikatess, och även lokalbefolkningen gör ofta en speciell resa hit för att njuta av det. Det har också presenterats av CNN som en av världens bästa livsmedel. Efter att ha smakat Laksa fortsätter vi med att prova en annan Balik Pulau-specialitet – bruna sockerbullar.

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.
