Great day, spectacular island and awesome guide. - We have just returned from the trip and wow, what an amazing day. Our host, Joey picked us up from the hotel at 9am and the first stop was two adjacent Hindu temples. Both are beautiful. After that we went to a enormous Chinese Buddhist temple that blew our minds, simply breathtaking! From there we went to Penang Hill which has the most spectacular views and setting. Afterwards we went for food at a Haka market before heading to the scenic views and photo opportunities of Armenian Street and the Clan Jetties. Joey was a fantastic host, he shared a wealth of information at every attraction and made everything extremely easy for us, such as buying our tickets at Penange Hill and ordering food. He took lots of pictures of us and shared them via WhatsApp and told us about places as we drove around. The tour was worth every penny; a great way to see Penange in all it's beauty. It was made even better by our brilliant host, Joey.

Excellent Tour Experience! - Penang was a beautiful city. Shawn was an excellent tour guide explaining in detail at the different stops we made. He took us to eat at a local restaurant and the food was super delicious! A true Malay dish. Penang hill and Kek Lok Si Temple are a must to see. Thank you for an excellent experience!

George Town and surroundings - It was a fantastic day with our guide Ernest Loh who first took us to an Indian restaurant where we got to try Indian snacks, very good. Went on to Kek Lok Si Temple. There we learned about the history of the building and Taoist and Buddhist rituals. On to different residential areas and finished down a 1.5 hour visit to Butterfly eco garden, fantastic. Ernest Loh was a very knowledgeable, experienced and nice guide. Unfortunately Penang hill was closed for maintenance, so we could not visit.
