Great way to experience and learn about Penang! - The tour with Khoo Bee Lean was great! We learnt a lot about the origins of Penang, including the British settlement, and we also learnt a lot about the Chinese clan family system. It was also great to hear the perspective of a local on Penang’s past and current direction. It was a great way to see and contextualise Penang and we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting!

Tour of Georgetown - It was an exciting trip with Ang as guide. He had a great knowledge of the city and could tell the background, past and present of Clans, Jetty and temples at each place. The trip can be recommended.

Penang history through the eyes of a local - Our tour guide Ang was our tour guide for the Penang Heritage Walking tour. He showed us Penang through the eyes of a local with great experience about what Penang had to offer from a historical perspective. I would certainly recommend to book Ang for this tour to learn more about beautiful Penang

Very knowledgeable! - Mohammed was very friendly. Great English. Unfortunately we all felt like he was rushing to finish. 3 hrs of tour was completed in 2 hours.

Curate’s egg - OK early on, but (I) we had to press the guide to visit all the listed venues (he appeared keen to get home!), and (ii) we were taken to 2 (unwanted) commercial outlet stores.

Great guide but average tour - Mohammed was a really good guide - 5 stars for him. Unfortunately, the tour he was assigned to give was not what we expected or wanted. The walking tour was only the 1st half of the tour. The other half was being driven outside of Georgetown to the shops that sell only to tourists where we felt pressured to buy things - batik, white coffee, chocolate and finally... amber (that we didn't buy). It's too bad because the walking tour was interesting. We enjoyed walking out onto the jetty and seeing some of the street art.

Complete scam - I booked this tour, no one picked me up. The help telephone no indicated for help does not work. No explanation, no service. THIS IS A RIP OFF SAVE YOUR MONEY
