Penang Passeios

Gostamos muito da nossa visita guiada com o Rana, que tem muito conhecimento sobre as árvores de fruto que nos apresentou, e gostamos de comer as diferentes frutas, além do pacote de sumos e frutas que compramos via Klook. No geral, foi um passeio divertido, mas tenha cuidado, pode ser muito quente e também há mosquitos. Além disso, pode pedir ao balcão de bilhetes para ajudar a reservar um táxi para sair do local, pois estávamos perto da hora de fecho, às 17h15.

Book it! The guide was amazing at explaining the history of the Penang hill, the difference in Buddhist practices, local culture and temples history. I would have not appreciated the location as deeply without this explanation. definitely worth it.

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

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.

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!

Que viagem ótima. Uma atividade imperdível. Eddie foi um dos melhores guias que já tivemos. Horário perfeito. Aprendemos muito. Cenário excelente. Paradas bem espaçadas e com muita variedade. O único ponto negativo foi não ter recebido uma confirmação na noite anterior, mas recebi um e-mail na manhã do dia. Recomendo muito esta viagem de um dia.

Foi um momento tão agradável, um passeio cuidadosamente organizado pelo nosso incrível guia Garrick. Foi um prazer poder aprender sobre George Town e Penang pelos olhos de um local apaixonado por gastronomia, toda a comida estava incrível, recomendo vivamente este passeio.
