It’s a must tour when you’re in Penang. You got to see all the important places within the city and the best tide is the Trishaw, very easy and quick. The Peranakan Mansion is so beautiful. Can’t wait to come back and see the most important part of their collection and culture. It is not the tour but the excellent driver we have- Mr Eng. Highly recommended for being knowledgeable of the history, very professional and attentive to our needs. Very patient for all our questions. Thank you Klook for this wonderful tour.
Highly recommended experience! Tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly! Interesting spots. The two temples were quite a sight to behold, very pretty construction. Sad that it was overrun with ignorant tourists who can’t read signs (saw a woman video calling someone while throwing chocolate bread into a pond to feed the tortoises and fishes even though there was a huge sign in 4 languages that tells people not to do so). Jetty was very interesting! Rickshaw ride was fun, all the cars seemed to give way to rickshaws without honking. Rickshaw uncle doesn’t seem to be fluent in english but tried his best to show us the attractions and photo spots! Always excited to help us take photos and teach us how to pose. Time was quite rushed though, hoped that we could have had a little longer to shop at some spots. Overall highly recommend booking this experience for a quick tour of georgetown.
very nice day! we were picked up on time and had a great tour around the town. Ong, our guide was full of amazing knowlegde. the tricksaw bike was fun- and took us to all the streets we wished to visit. thank you
We went to lots of places we didn’t expect, like jetty, little India, a hundred old fire station, upside down museum, Chaiya Mangalaram Thai Buddhist Temple. It was a great experience. The tour guide was nice he also briefed us on lots of great food around our hotel and places that we can visit the other day. Tour guide and the rickshaw drivers helped us took lots of family photos with the best angles. Highly recommended.
A great and relaxing experience! This half day tour and ride was worth the price. Our tour guide G Shen arrived at the hotel on time. He was professional, very polite and patient in explaining the history of different attractions, giving us more insights about Penang and the local culture! It was an enjoyable and memorable tour for my family.
Take a tricycle (1 HR) to experience the world cultural heritage of George Town. It is a very good experience. The driver shuttles through the streets and alleys, giving you the feeling of a time tunnel. In addition, the tricycle tour (2 HR) goes to visit the British colonial buildings and see the sea view and the harbor. Visit the famous Surname Bridge and listen to the tour guide explaining the history. It is very rich and exciting and worth a visit.
Ong was very nice, he gave us a background of Georgetown and brought us around. Very patient. Our trishaw guy didn’t understand English but used his body language to tell us some poses to do at the certain photo-spots. End of trishaw ride, we met up with Ong again who offered to drive us to anywhere we wanted to go next! (Inside Georgetown) it was a good experience at the start of the trip
It was a very unique experience. I walked through the streets and alleys of Penang and visited every historical site on the streets by tricycle. I was first picked up from the hotel in a private car with seven people and sent to the meeting point. It was very convenient! Then we boarded the tricycle, and the tricycle driver explained the local culture in great detail. 10 points recommended, so you must experience it once! (In addition, the local customer service department answered all questions and tried their best to solve the problems we encountered. We are very grateful)
Enjoyed the senior-friendly tour that give us a very quick history about Penang. G-Shen explained thought the tour and made some slight adjustment to the itinerary, he is thougful like provide have a small stool to allow seniors to step into the vehicle easily.
Must-book itineraries can be picked up and dropped off at your hotel, which is very convenient. It is recommended that you leave your WhatsApp contact information! The car was very comfortable, the tour guide A Sheng gave a great introduction, and the service was very good! We visited the unique Thai temple, Burmese temple, historical city area, and Zhou Qiao!
