5.00We had a wonderful day today. Our tour guide/ driver Peggy does know Penang very well. She showed us all the tourist attractions on the itinerary as well and taking us to places for yummy local speciality food. We are super happy with her service and would highly recommend Peggy and this activity.

5.00We only had one day to enjoy the sights of Penang on the way home to Australia. Viator made the booking very easy the day before we wanted the tour so I was very surprised we got such a quality tour and guide in Evan. We wanted a fully flexible private tour as we had already seen plenty of temples, mosques and churches in the last year and our time was limited. Evan mapped out a terrific itinerary starting with Entopia butterfly farm, Spice Gardens then Penang Hill, followed by Koo Kongsi House and the famous street art. Evan shared his passion for Penang and Malaysian culture. He took us to a hawker’s market restaurant for a delicious inexpensive lunch and as a guide, could get us past the huge queues for the funicular to the top of Penang Hill, a spot you could easily spend many hours at. We even saw some Dusky Leaf Monkeys playing among the beautiful trees and gardens. Evan explained what was what from the view atop Penang Hill. He drove us around the UNESCO-recognised streets of Georgetown, pointing out the major sites. By the end of the 6 hours, we were quite tired but in such a good way as we had learnt so much from Evan. My husband had served in Butterworth 50 years ago and even he learnt so much more from Evan. We thoroughly recommend this private and flexible way to enjoy Penang.
Reallly great day

5.00Wonderful day with Peggy, our guide/driver. She showed us everything we wanted to see, even bought stuff for us because we didn’t have local currency and we straightened up using US $. Toll us to place for lunch that had very good duck, not a place we would have ventured into but it was fabulous. Would recommend this day trip highly.

5.00We spent the day being taken around Penang by Anthony. Some of the visits included the Kok Lek See Temple, Penang Hill and Little India and was very knowledgeable about all of them. An excellent day out.
Outstanding day!

5.00Peggy was a perfect tour guide! She was knowledgeable, informative, and worked with me to customize the tour to be sure to show us everything we wanted to see. It was top notch! Peggy was very accommodating to my husband who used a small scooter. She was flexible, adjusting on the fly to stop at a Batik factory and a spontaneous stop for a cup of famous Malaysian white coffee. Our tour was well paced and she got us back to our ship right on time. Penang was a wonderful port of call—and with Peggy it was extra special!
