Overview
Available languages
Please note that Penang Hill will be closed for maintenance in June 2025, and access to the hill by train will not be available.
This is a private tour, meaning it’s just you or your group. Unlike a fixed itinerary tour, this tour allows you to visit the attractions of your choice. The tour starts from the pick-up point. For a 4-hour visit, you can select 2-3 attractions on Penang Island (travel time is not included in the duration). For example, choose from:
Penang Hill
Kek Lok Si
Pinang Peranakan Mansion
Clan Jetty
Street Art Murals
You decide which places to visit and how much time to spend at each. You can explore in-depth or simply take photos and move on. If you're unsure where to go, let our tour guide suggest options for you. The guide will accompany you at each attraction and provide commentary along the way. Penang is a land of charm, and you'll be surprised by what it has to offer – you’ll wish you had more time here!

3.0it was a rainny daily and not much you can do. Not really enjoy with the tour and feel the tour guide try to finish the tour ASAP. Recommend us to pay extra $100 to the Express Check-in in the Penang Hill train ticket.

5.0Jeff our tour guide was excellent and made sure we saw as much as possible during our time on the tour. He fast tracked us up Penang Hill and made sure we had the best seats on the funicular. He even took us on a short was back through George Town to see the street art and Armenian street and its history. Jeff is an experienced guide and looks after his group during the tour to give an overall experience of the city. He also makes sure you get back on time for your cruise.

5.0Got to see all the major sites in the downtown area. Tomorrow is a Hindu holiday, we went to the temple area to see the pre-festival, very colorful. Our guide Goh provided us with some local fruit and tea snacks. We enjoyed our 4 hr tour, Goh provided details for each site we visited and Penang history.
A true experience for the record books
