The tour was excellent. Thank you Mr. Ong for showing us around, and regale us with some history lessons regarding all the sites that we went to. I, we, appreciate all that you've shared with us. Your stories of Penang will stay with us forever.
This was an amazing trip. Sean was so knowledgable and v effecient. Cannot recommend highly enough! Thank you Sean!
The funicular up Penang Hill was great and it was a nice walk round Penang Hill. The express ticket provided with the tour was a great plus and allowed us to skip the queue. Our driver, Goh, was very friendly and gave us a lot of information and tips for both places. Less time could be spent at Kek Lok Si though.
Anson Sim is a very experienced & knowledgeable driver & guide. It was a learning journey.
Informative and very accommodating tour guide
