This tour will bring you to see local life in the Penang countryside. Away from Balik Pulau town there is a labyrinth of minor roads, pathways and alleys.

1.00I received a message the morning (06.00) of my pick-up saying I would now have to walk to a new point by 0.700. We drove past my original pick-up on the way to the start. Bikes were antiquated, dirty and badly maintained. It took 3 attempts to get a bike that was safe. Bike ride not worthy of note.
It’s a really early start...

4.00A 50 minute drive away from Georgetown to the Penang countryside for our bicycle adventure was in a comfortable, air conditioned van. Nice views of the island as the van scaled the hills. We had an excellent guide, Eddie, who introduced us to the rural heart of Penang and offered insights on local agriculture, aquaculture and life away from the urban jungle. Very interesting ! We had a refreshment stop of coffee and kaya puff and at the goat farm, for ice cream and rambutan. Bikes were good and functional. Eddie ensured we were safe and comfortable !
