    This tour gives a good historical understanding of Penang. Of the things that could be easily forgotten if it’s not mentioned. Knowing it makes Penang even more interesting. The guide Maxwell is very knowledgeable and courteous. He mentioned lots of details of the bygone era- ways of living and cultural elements that can easily be overlooked. Highly recommended for a full Penang immersion.

    Good tour with very interesting historic sites. Guide had excellent English skills. Only odd part was that he said he had to take a picture of me at each site to prove to his company that he had done the tour.

    Guide from George town, Chong was excellent. He explained to us all the history about the points of interest we visited and took us to a real local restaurant that only offer genuine local food and drink like Laksa, gwai due and jin do drink. Before going back to the ship, he entertained our request taking us to a corner store to try the best fruit in Malaysia, Durian.
    I have no doubt in recommending this half day city tour to folks browsing for unforgettable memories in George Town

    It was really great to see Georgetown and special places on Penang Island with mr Firdauz, Mohammed. He told us many interesting facts. We especially like historic sites and street art and we did see both! Great tour!

    The reclining Budha, The Peranakan Mansion both were highlights. Driving through parts of Georgetown- gave us a nice glimpse of the area.

    The whole experience felt more like a taxi service rather than a personalised guided tour. The guide did not bother to come inside with us to most of the points of interests or provide any explanations. At the Khoo Kongsi for example we had to read all information panels as he was not actually guiding us or providing any information. When asked, he simply pointed us at the information panels. The last stop were two buddhist and Burmese temples. Again he just dropped us and waited in the car. Very sad to discover that people inside the temples were with their guides except us… He also dropped us at two shops to buy shirts and coffee… overall very disappointing as it was not as advertised. We were expecting a guided tour and not a taxi service. I would not recommend it. Much better to buy guided tours at the different points of interests. The guided tour at the blue mansion was miles away from this one.
