Wonderful Penang guided by Ms Peggy

5.00My husband and I were on a 6-hour guided tour by Ms Peggy Goh on 24Sep2025. What a lovely & wonderful day made possible by our tour guide Ms Peggy. She is very experienced, knowledgeable and professional. She showed us the highlights of Georgetown, Penang hill, Kek Lok Si. She brought us to lunch to delicious food at food centre well known to locals but tourists like us would not be aware. Both Mr & me thoroughly enjoyed yourselves 🥳 This tour and guide is also highly recommended for anyone, even for cruise passengers who have limited exploration time
The guide was very good.

5.00I only had one night in Penang and was looking for a tour and found this tour. The time was six hours. I think it was a good time, not short, not long. About the tour, Peggy, the tour guide and driver, will first check if you have a place to go. I told him that I wanted to visit the famous sites of Penang at my disposal. If you tell them what tourist spots you want to visit along the way, they are happy to listen to your requests. I had a fulfilling day by being guided and explained various tourist attractions in Penang. Even if you only speak your own language, you can still enjoy sightseeing with confidence as they explain to you while using the mobile phone translation app. Also, if you're going to Penang, I want Peggy to feel safe.

5.00This was a fabulous private tour, the guide was so attentive. His commentary was so good, he really looked after us, showing us all the sites. The funicular train is sertainly well worth visiting. We asked to be taken to sky walk and the top of the tower and he sorted it for us. Great day out. Perfect for cruise ship passengers.
Surprising Penang

5.00Our driver picked us up right on time, gave us a short driving tour of the old town area, then we went to see the Hindu temple and the Reclining Buddha temple. He was very knowledgeable and took his time to explain things that weren’t obvious. We saw many of the Street Art paintings and sculptures, then asked to go to lunch somewhere that locals would eat. We had the best dim sum ever. This was a great day.
Wow epic day in Penang

5.00Wow what a day we achieved all the sights we wanted to see and more. David our guide was incredibly informative and friendly and we took his advice on what to do in which order which worked well. We had a fabulous lunch in a hawker area which we would not have been brave enough to visit on our own but we were treated to amazing food at incredible prices. The vendors were incredibly friendly and helpful. What an experience in 6 hours would recommend for everyone we will do again in every city we visit.
