Great tour and guide would definitely recommend. - Bespoke tour of Penang.
Very friendly and knowledgeable guide who gave us a great itinarary and I think we got a pretty good overview of Penang.. my only advice is .maybe to try to identify the main places you want to visit as the day passes very quickly ... and we did not even stop for lunch!!

Outstanding Penang tour - We had our tour today with Josh and it was excellent! Josh is an amazing tour guide who took very good care of us! He was very knowledgeable and flexible, modifying the tour as the day progressed to make sure we saw what was most interesting to us! Thank you for arranging a great day

Exceptionally well done - We met our guide, Mr Law, by the cruise terminal. Good communication through WhatsApp. He asked us about our top three things we wanted to do, but we deferred to him. Which was a smart idea. We visited several temples and then headed towards Penang Hill. He highly recommended the nature tour on top. Through some magic of Mr. Law we were able to get the express passes to get up the mountain. It is the only way if you want to get to the top of Penang Hill. We went to a fancy lunch at the E&O hotel. And we ended the tour by being dropped off at a street party extravaganza. Everything was done to perfection. He was very interesting. We were glad we had him as our guide.
Highly recommended.

Great option to see Penang with kids! - This is a flexible tour that takes you through the important places in Penang. It's important to let the guide know where you'd like to go and where you can skip. A quick note, Chew Jetty wraps up before 7pm so go before sunset. Also, at The Top, the last call for activities can be either 6 or 6:30pm so plan accordingly. Anson was a very flexible guide who took us to all the places we wanted to go and avoided ones that may be crowded for later. Thank you!
PS - We were cruise passengers.

Fabulous Day - CE Tan was my wonderful guide/driver for the day. We went to Entopia, Kek Lok Si Temple, Penang Hill, two dams and had lunch in a local food centre in Air Itam. What a wonderful time, everything was great but a must visit is definintely Penang Hill, the Habitat anfd the wonderful Curtis Walk on the Hill. If its a busy day the Express lane of the funicular is recommended. Sit in the back/front car for the best view and thrill.

Full day in Penang - Sean was a fantastic guide. Took us everywhere, made sure we were at the front of the queue for Penang Hill, tailored the day around us, couldn’t ask for more. Unfortunately our daughter was poorly last minute so moved us later and changed the itinerary to be better for the weather. Really got to see the sights in one big day. Would definitely recommend.
