The vibrant dynamic region of Penang comes with lots to offer – and its capital Georgetown is one of the main destinations. The entire city is UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a mecca of ancient monuments, historical landmarks, and museums. You'll visit Khoo Kongsi, a Chinese clanhouse with stunning architecture, and Hock Teik Cheng Sin Temple. You also won't miss one of the oldest clan temples in town – the Cheah Kongsi, as well as the Pinang Peranakan Mansion, a must-see for every traveler visiting Penang.

Reviews
It's been a great and memorable tour with Mr.Danny, he makes sure to visit all the places in the itinerary and even let us took a photo with the good spot. Because we still have time he suggested to us to experience the upside down house penang which we enjoyed much.
Mr Eng was a great guide and gave detailed explanations. The itinerary was well planned as we arrived at the Pinang Peranakan Museum before the hordes of tourists. Mr Eng also gave us enough time to take pictures at each site. This is a great tour if you want to see the must-visit sites in half a day. Will recommend.
Great sharing by Guide Josh. He is very knowledgeable on the history of Penang and the places that we visited. He was also accommodative when we were asking to visit other historical sites which is not part of the itinerary. Very informative tour.👍🏻
Our guide Gshen was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was punctual and very informative. We really enjoyed our 4 hour tour around George Town and would highly recommend it to others so you really get to learn about this fascinating area of Penang city.
The guide was well versed with the place, and was patient and knowledgeable. Beautiful place, it is a UNESCO heritage site, must visit. It is filled with street art, so makes for great photo places.
The tour guide was not really a tour guide but simply a driver he provided little to no information on each stop, did not even provide a clear overview of the day. He had difficulties expressing himself in English and we struggled to understand his directions. Some of the stops were interesting. Others felt very strange like we were pushed to enter some stores without any kind of information from the guide whatsoever. That was strange. He also pointed pictures on walls but did not give us any time to take pictures of it. We had Grab drivers providing much more information and insights than we had on this tour.
It is a good program to feel the cultural history of Penang. We made a reservation the day before, but the guide was a bit disappointing. Pronunciation, quick explanations, and even when asking a question, there were incidents such as disagreements at the place where we were supposed to meet because we only explained ourselves. They were kind, but I had to pay for it, and it was a hot day, and I had a hard time with children.
worth the tour The old place is still very well preserved.
Mr shen was very nice , punctual , very professional , explained everything and offered to take us pictures . We enjoyed our tour with him, and would highly recommend this tour to anyone who visits penang for the first time.
This was our first visit to Malaysia. Tour guide was nice and he provide lot of information to every spot we visited. Thanks!
