Penang Kierrokset

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.

Varaa se! Opas selitti upeasti Penang Hillin historiaa, buddhalaisten käytäntöjen eroja, paikallista kulttuuria ja temppelien historiaa. En olisi ymmärtänyt paikkaa näin syvällisesti ilman tätä selitystä. Ehdottomasti sen arvoinen.

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

We had an enjoyable half-day tour around Balik Pulau. Ken was a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide who shared interesting insights into Penang’s history, along with her personal experiences. She also brought us to a lovely local café where we had the opportunity to savour authentic Penang dishes. The nutmeg factory was relatively small, but it was interesting to hear the owner explain the different stages of nutmeg cultivation, from young plants to mature trees. We also bought some locally made belacan, which turned out to be quite tasty! Overall, it was a pleasant experience and a nice way to explore the local culture and flavours of Balik Pulau. However, while we enjoyed the tour, we felt that it was a little pricey for what was offered and could have provided better value for money.

It was convinient, guide was good and overall nice experience. It was really hot when we went and the convince of your own transport was helpful.Pengang hill was nice and with express train pass there was hardly any waiting time.

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!

Aivan mahtava matka. Ehdoton ohjelmanumero. Eddie oli yksi parhaista oppaistamme, joita meillä on ollut. Täydellinen ajoitus. Opimme paljon. Maisemat olivat hienot. Pysähdykset oli sijoitettu hyvin ja tarjolla oli runsaasti vaihtelua. Ainoa miinus oli se, että emme saaneet vahvistusta edellisenä iltana, mutta sähköposti tuli varhain aamulla. Suosittelen tätä päiväretkeä lämpimästi.

Tämä oli niin ihana kokemus, upean oppaamme Garrickin huolellisesti kuratoima kierros. Oli ilo oppia George Townista ja Penangista paikallisen ruokaharrastajan silmin, kaikki ruoka oli uskomatonta, suosittelisin tätä kierrosta lämpimästi.

I was skeptical at first as Penang's history is not new to me but this production pleasantly surprised me. It was a sincere production with engaging performances. Really appreciate the thoughtful screen on the tables of premium seating as there are pillars blocking the stage view. Dinner was pleasant, taste was good but not wow. Overall an awesome experience which I will definitely recommend for tourist.
