Peggy was an excellent guide/driver as we saw many things on the island. Peggy gave us great information about life on Penang. She was very efficient in bringing us to many sites. She has a great personality and sense of humor. I would highly recommend a tour with Peggy. I know we’ll reach out to her when we come back in 2030.

We had an excellent guide, Shawn, he is very knowledgeable about attractions in Penang, in general all about Malasia and Malaysian culture. He helped us out of the way to make sure that we enjoy and see very best in George Town, Penang Hill and other places in the Penang island. He also helped us finding very best authentic Malaysian food in George Town.

Our Full Day Flexi Tour with Peggy was the highlight of our trip to Penang! She was incredibly informative, friendly, and accommodating, making the entire day feel personalized and seamless. As first-time visitors, we appreciated how she brought Penang’s culture, history, and food to life with her local knowledge and thoughtful storytelling. Peggy tailored the tour to our interests, took us to both must-see sights and hidden gems, and introduced us to delicious local dishes we might have missed on our own. Her passion for Penang was contagious and made the experience unforgettable. If you’re visiting Penang, don’t hesitate—book this tour and ask for Peggy!

We 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.

We 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.
