Gran conocimiento de Penang y muy amable
Combinamos varios tours en uno, y gracias a Remy pedimos conocer toda la ciudad en un solo día. Al mismo tiempo, durante el tour pudimos probar los principales platos de su gastronomia.
Remy fue muy amable e incluyo en el tour un plato que tenía muchas ganas de probar. Durante todo el tour nos fue comprando bebidas, agua y fruta para que estuviesemos bien hidratados en todo momento.
Ha sido una gran experiencia y Remy es un nuevo amigo en Penang.

Totalmente recomendable.
Puntual a la hora acordada Deffrey nos recogió en nuestro hotel, y comenzó el tour que nos llevaría a conocer la maravillosa ciudad de Penang, no solo los puntos emblemáticos también la gastronomía.
Optamos por este tour para tener una visión global de Penang, para el día siguiente profundizar en aquellos sitios que más nos habían gustado. Cumplió perfectamente nuestras expectativas. Es de agradecer que después de finalizar el tour Deffrey nos mandó recomendaciones que fueron de gran ayuda.
Totalmente recomendable.

Phenomenal Penang by Lisa
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a private food tour in Penang, and it was nothing short of exceptional. My guide, Lisa, truly made the experience unforgettable.
Lisa has lived in Penang for 16 years, and her deep knowledge of the island’s diverse cultures and cuisines shines through in every stop, story, and bite. From the vibrant street food stalls to tucked-away local favorites, she guided me through a carefully curated selection of dishes that represented the rich blend of Malay, Chinese, and Indian influences that make Penang such a culinary gem.
What really stood out was how Lisa connected each dish to its cultural roots explaining not just what we were eating, but why it mattered. Her passion for food and local history is infectious, and it felt like being shown around by a friend who truly loves and understands the heart of Penang.
This tour wasn’t just about food (though the food was amazing) it was about stories, people, and the traditions that have shaped this unique part of Malaysia. Whether you're a foodie, a history buff, or just curious to experience Penang through a local’s eyes, I can't recommend Lisa enough. Thanks again Lisa for a truely memorable experience.
