Good food and guide

Published on Jan, 2025

Our Guide, Lester, was great! He was knowledgeable about Penang and we visited several great food stalls. Lester was happy to explain the food to us and was willing to take photos of us both. Great time - thanks Lester.

Interesting food tour

We had a very informative food tour with Pho. She gave us so much information about the city, their culture and the food. I love when food tours are more than just about the food.

Highly Recommended

Our tour guide James was wonderful. We visited a number of places pre-selected by James and tried the local delicacies. James also provided the historical context/background of the neighborhoods visited. The food was great and our tour guide’s knowledge and presentation made it even better.

Local food and history tour! Do it!

A food tour and much more

Published on Jan, 2025

My friend and I did this tour on our 2nd day in George Town. James was absolutely fantastic - he asked about allergies/intolerance ahead of time and asked if there were any dishes I'd like to try. He accommodated all of this in the tour - and we even had some amazing cakes that he'd gone to the market ahead of time to buy so we could try them. As well as the food we learnt loads about George Town and it's buildings and history. Couldn't recommend enough - definitely come hungry!
