A delicious food tour of Penang - We really enjoyed Junie's food tour. Besides various Streetfood dishes and places she also showed us a lot of the city. The food was delicious. Junie could put together a tour for us that was vegetarian and local on request. She was able to transfer her passion for Penang Street Food to us.

Fabulous food and wonderful guide - Kevin was a wonderful guide that took us to many local places we would never find as tourists. We enjoyed a broad range of Malaysian food and he explained all the origins. So worth it at the beginning of your stay to understand where to go and what to eat local style!!

Wonderful experience eating your way through Penang. - Had an amazing time in Penang recently on the Eat Like a Local tour. As the title says, you get to try a large number of amazing spots that you'd likely never find unless you were a local. I lost count of how many dishes I tried! Jesi and her trusty driver were knowledgeable and professional, and made me feel very welcome. Would highly recommend.

Expert Food Tour - As a vegetarian, I was well looked after by the company and our guide Kevin who makes sure each stop had tasty offerings for both myself and my meat eating husband. Don’t have lunch before you go! We made 5 stops varying from local restaurants to street food. The places were all packed with locals—is there a better recommendation for a restaurant? Would be great to do in your first night so you know what to go back and sample in your own.

Perfect for food lovers! - The food tour in Penang with Kevin was fantastic! We sampled so many delicious local treats. Some were so unique and unlike anything we’ve eaten before. Others were the best versions of foods we’ve enjoyed in other places, including other parts of Malaysia and Singapore. Not only did we eat things we never would have eaten had we not taken this tour, we ate a places we never would have visited without Kevin bringing us to them. We didn’t see a single tourist at these places. Most of them specialized in the particular food we sampled. In addition to food, Kevin helped us understand life in Penang. We walked along a jetty as he explained how the residents lived there and in the public housing we could see from there.

Must do in Georgetown. - Kevin is an incredibly knowledgeable guide, taking us to his favourite spots.
Do not eat lunch. Have a hearty breakfast to see you through till 5pm.
Being transported in the car is a wonderful restbite from the heat.
Must do for travellers to Penang.
