Brandon was very knowledgeable both about history, heritage and food on this tour. A great small group tour (we had 6) and Brandon managed to ensure we all were looked after and well fed.

We had a fantastic tour with Brandon, and just wish our appetites could have accommodated all of the delicious food! It was a perfect introduction to Penang culture and cuisine.

We were in a group of 6 and were lead by our tour guide, Brandon. He was informative and took us for good variety of snacks and meals throughout Georgetown. We tried samosa, chai, curries, laksa, kuih, char kway teow, and various Nonya dishes. It was great to try out the specialties and learn about the primary cultural groups in the city. Brandon took care of ordering and payment for all the food, and kept on asking if we had enough to eat – he was determined to make us full! Highly recommend.

This tour hit some must try dishes in Malaysia. The char kway teoh and samosa that they showed us were our favorites from the tour. If you're unsure of where to eat or things to do in Penang, the guides are knowledgeable and will happily offer recommendations. Jeremy and Brandon were very kind.

This was such a great tour! Our guide was so informative, not just on the food of Penang but the history too. All of the food we tried was amazing and in eateries which we probably wouldn’t have found if we hadn’t done the tour. Would definitely recommend this to anyone travelling to Penang.
