5.00Jessie was brilliant! She was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much fascinating information about the religions and culture of Malaysia. Our group ranged in age between 4 and 84 years and she made sure to engage and include everyone. One of our party had also sustained a back injury whilst on holiday so the tour was adapted to allow this person to see the main sites and not miss out as much as possible. We were not rushed and given ample time to explore each site - and she answered our many questions! We ran late (because of us exploring each site) so we included a stop for a quick lunch and Jessie helped to choose suitable dishes to share. She identified what was important for us to see of the remainder of the tour. All in all an amazing experience and cannot speak highly enough of Jessie, or our driver Jimmy!
Fantastic tour guide

Half Day Tour with Azmel

5.00Our guide was Azmel. He was over the top great. We had booked the private half day tour for me and my son (17). Azmel ended up picking us up at our hotel in Batu Ferringhi (which isn’t normal) with our luggage and dropped us off at our airport hotel at the end of the tour. He had a really nice car and good A/C. WE SAW EVERYTHING! He took us to all of the spots listed on all of the tour sites. And we had as much time as we wanted to explore the spots when stopped. He also gave so much great info and history. After researching all of the sites before visiting, I had a real interest in seeing the famous street art displays. He already had one scheduled to see, but ended up taking us to see the other 3 on request. Would totally recommend this tour and Azmel to anyone.
