Transform Your Perspective: Private UNESCO George Town Walk

Guide was friendly and knowledgable, but pricey for how brief it was. Not every location was visited and would have preferred to skip the shopping destination.

Friendly and intimate guiding to appreciate the secrets of the place, wonderful cultural tour of Penang

Guide was super friendly and professional, but the tour didn't stop every at every advertised location was visited and would have preferred to skip the shopping destination. Went on another tour the same day and got more description for the same stops. Bit too pricey for what it is.

We enlisted a local tour operator to show us this wonderful, historical UNESCO World Heritage Site. In no particular order we saw Queen Victoria Memorial Clock Tower, Fort Cornwallis, Chew Jetty, Armenian Street, Kapitan Keeling Mosque, Little India, Sri Mahamariamman Temple, Goddess of Mercy Temple, St. George Anglican Church and Khoo Kongsi. The local street art was also visited including: "little children on a bicycle" and "flying Butterfly Cat". Great guide who also gave us tips on the street food and the brest places to shop.

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.

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!

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.

Good commentary about the history of Penang and the Guide was very good and talkative. We enjoyed the walk very much. Would highly recommend the 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.

Ang Chin Boom was our guide for the day and he was very kind and knowledgeable, he was very accommodating and made our trip awesome, we highly recommend him
