Things to do in Kek Lok Si Temple

Mr. Li was very patient throughout, accompanying us, giving us a tour and explanations, and thoughtfully parking the car in the most convenient spots at each attraction. We had a wonderful time!

I wasn't sure what to expect, but i was really blown away by the experience. We were treated not only to a "tree to table" durian spread, but we also learnt a lot about the importance of nurturing the land, and hearing from Eric how they work with nature, keeping circularity in mind to ensure that their durians are like none other. In terms of transportation, do note that you would need to arrange for your own transfer there and back, but just drop Kim a text and she will link you up with a driver who will get the group there are back safely. Overall a really positive experience, especially seeig how Eric and Kim are both so passionate about what they do. Truly inspirational!

My daughter love it very much. She's enjoy taking photo & laugh out loud after seeing the amazing scene. Ticket price unfortunately did not hv special column for OKU, so we hv to purchase normal price & not refundable. We bought ticket via klook.

One way in and guides you to one way out the exit pathway. So take as many pics before you walk forward, even though you can walk backwards but still so much ahead. Lots of fun and great group activity.

The hosts are incredibly knowledgeable. You can feel their love for their farm as well as for Mother Nature. The durians are very fresh and delicious. This has been a truly unique experience for us.

Very educational and satisfying. Eric was cheerful and friendly and shared with us many interesting facts about durian farming. The “magic trick “ using the lime and “hill coconut “ was amusing. The variety of durian tasted was good. before this trip, I only love maoshangwang. now I know there are much better type that are not seen in my country yet.

Thank you, Ken, for the detailed and friendly introductions throughout the trip. All the recommended food was delicious! You also took us to new attractions and bought us rambutan to try, which we hadn't had before. I'm so glad I booked the one-day tour; it made our Penang trip even more special.

Honestly, if you consider yourself a durian fanatic, this tour is absolutely the most worthwhile and astonishing experience in all of Penang! I already felt incredibly happy eating durian in George Town a few days ago, but I truly never imagined that taking an hour-long drive into the mountains to this purely organic orchard in Balik Pulau (the owner, Eric, mentioned they've maintained a chemical pesticide-free approach for over 80 years) would offer such a fresh and impactful experience, eating durians right after they fall. It's on a completely different level from what I usually eat in Hong Kong! Today truly set a new personal record for me; I devoured 8 varieties in one go: Green Skin, Hor Lor, Kun Poh, Kim Poh, Xiao Hong, Jin Yu, D15, and the legendary 600! Because all of them were naturally ripened and eaten within 2 to 6 hours of falling, the flesh was incredibly creamy, with absolutely no watery texture. The most amazing thing is that today I actually tasted popcorn 🍿, pure natural coconut 🥥, and intensely rich black coffee ☕ flavors in the durian! I seriously wondered if I had gone to a high-end dessert buffet instead of a durian orchard. At the orchard, I also got to experience picking and eating the juiciest rambutans and mangosteens right off the trees. Eating mangosteen after durian to cool down was simply superb. Although it's an hour's drive from the city into the mountains, this perfect taste is absolutely worth the price. A friendly reminder that to protect the ecosystem, the orchard requires advance booking through Klook; walk-ins are not allowed! I will definitely sign up again next time I visit Penang!
