    Our guide, Mr Eng Chon Wooi is a master guide. He is kind, helpful and shared his knowledge with a great narrative. He contacted us in advance, was punctual. Asked for our preferences, had fresh water and umbrellas. A five star tour! Thank you Wooi 😊😊

    CE Tan was my wonderful guide/driver for the day. We went to Entopia, Kek Lok Si Temple, Penang Hill, two dams and had lunch in a local food centre in Air Itam. What a wonderful time, everything was great but a must visit is definintely Penang Hill, the Habitat anfd the wonderful Curtis Walk on the Hill. If its a busy day the Express lane of the funicular is recommended. Sit in the back/front car for the best view and thrill.

    Tiger is truly passionate about being a tour guide! Not only that he is a wonderful person and treats his guests with the utmost attention and care. If you want a guided tour look no further. You can tell that he does his homework and wants to be a tour guide to share his love of Penang. Here is a selfie photo of our group enjoying Durian, but we also visited kek lok si and other places. Oh and I almost forgot to mention he is a true food gourmet- you won't regret trying his recommendations :)

    If you're looking to explore the highlights of Penang in a day, I highly recommend this tour! My tour guide, Nasir Ali, made sure I did not miss anything what Penang had to offer. You can either create your own itinerary or follow the itinerary he had to offer. I wanted to explore a few attractions, like Penang Hills and around Georgetown. Not only did Nasir take me to those attractions, he went above and beyond by taking me to the hidden gems that most tourists would often miss when we had some spare time. Overall, I really enjoyed this tour and would recommend it for people who want to explore Penang in a day!

    Interesting tour with excellent tour guide.
    Entopia Butterfly Farm was most enjoyable and arriving early in the day was great as we missed the crowds which we building as we left.
    The Tropical Spice Garden not so exciting.
    The tour was worthwhile just to get out of Georgetown and see other parts of the Island.

    This was a relaxed tour filled with amazing things to see and do. The Tropical Spice Garden was a serene encounter with nature that shared information in a fun way. Following this with the visit to Entopia was a real contrast. We were amazed by the magnitude of the display and the depth of detail presented in such an enjoyable way.
    Overall our tour with Pesona and Mr Ong as our driver/guide was a Penang Island experience we will remember with pleasure.

    Ronald Wong was an excellent guide and within our 6 hour tour we learnt so much about Georgetown and Malaysian culture. Ronald took time to explain many historical, religious, cultural and social aspects that make Georgetown so unique. The places we visited were varied and this made the tour very interesting. Ronald encouraged us to ask questions, which he answered clearly and, when necessary, in some detail. The tour flowed seamlessly, as Ronald managed all the admissions and organisational aspects with little fuss. Our driver, Stephen, got us from place to place capably, maximising the short time we had in Georgetown. We highly recommend this tour!

    This small group tour was the perfect way to spend the day in Penang. The driver/guide picked us up across from the port entrance and we passed several sites as we traveled to Penang Hill. After some explanation of what we would see, we were given free time to ride the funicular to the too to explore on our own. Next we toured Kek Lok Su Temple on our own, again after being given some facts. We prefer to tour in this manner, with time to explore what interests us and away from a group and a chatty guide. We also stopped at a batik shop and still had time to wander Georgetown before the ship departed.
