Penang Day trips

We enjoyed our guided tour with Rana who is knowledgeable about fruit trees he introduced to us and we enjoyed eating the different fruits besides the juice and fruits package we bought via Klook. Overall a fun tour but beware can be very hot and mosquitoes too. Also you can request the ticketing office to help book taxi to leave the place as we are near to closing time at 5:15 pm.

this was such a lovely time, a thoughtfully curated tour by our amazing guide Garrick. It was a pleasure to be able to learn about George Town and Penang from the eyes of a local foodie, all the food was amazing, would highly recommend this tour

Excellent tour! Our young guide was fantastic, giving us ample time to look around without feeling rushed.

Thank you to Josh for sharing his hometown knowledge. We would highly recommend this tour.

Such a great trip. A must do activity. Eddie was one of the best guides we have had. Perfect timing. Learnt lots. Scenery great. Stops spaced well and lots of variety. Only negative was didn't get a confirmation the night before but did get an email early morning of. Would highly recommend this day trip.

G-Shen is an experienced guide who shares lots of penang culture with us. He is thoughtful and ensure that we enjoyed ourselves.

We had a wonderful morning with Ken. She brought us to a nutmeg plantation, a belacan shop, the container murals in a padi field and we also tried crispy hor fun, asam laksa, belacan chicken and white nutmeg juice. Along the way she regaled us with interesting tidbits about the places we were visiting. The final destination was Pulau Bentong where we took pictures on an infinity staircase overlooking the sea. Well worth the time to see the other side of Penang 👏

We are a family size of 3 (with a 4yo). Uncle Jimmy our chauffeur came to get us from our hotel at Georgetown and took us safely and comfortably to Balik Pulau. Rizal was our ATV guide. Being the only female, he allowed me to be second in line with my hubby and boy the next, followed by a group of 5 (all male). He constantly checked on us throughout the ride, gestured to stop at various locations and assisted us in taking amazing photos. He gave us a heads up what to expect in the next leg of journey (e.g. Cow). Last stop was at Hutan Paya Laut, a swamp forest leading to the ocean where we met the friendly ginger cat before making our way back. Uncle Jimmy was already there waiting for us to take us back to our hotel. Had our complimentary lemongrass drink and a slice of banana cake at Love uu cafe before hoping into Uncle Jimmy's car and bidding farewell. My 4yo enjoyed it so much! Thank you Rizal! We will be back!

Mr. Huang, the head of the local tour operator, personally welcomed us. Although it was just my wife and I, Mr. Huang did not treat us lightly due to the small group size. He provided a very detailed and humorous explanation of Penang's culture and history from beginning to end. He started by discussing the religious temples of various ethnic groups, leading into how Penang currently respects and integrates diverse cultures and languages. He also showed us Chew Jetty and Lim Jetty, helping us understand the hardships Chinese immigrants faced when they first arrived in Penang, and how they have since flourished to become the most influential ethnic group. The lifelike murals left us with very precious memories. Thank you, Mr. Huang, for the detailed tour. We wish you good health, a prosperous business, and peace for your family. We highly recommend this tour; in just four hours, you'll gain a thorough understanding of Penang.
