Fantastic experience of Penang Island

From the word go, Deffrey was great to communicate with and tailored to our request of wanting to experience a more authentic, rural adventure of Penang Island. We could not have asked for more. The entire day from cycling through villages, rice paddies, monkeys, farms and coast line, exploring the Chinese fishing villages and experiencing local cafe culture, to our hike through Penang National Park to beautiful beaches and back was awesome! Deffrey is a great guy, warm and easy to be around. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Penang!

Travels with Virginia Ann

Virginia made our stay in Penang into an unforgettable experience. A life long resident made the difference as we saw both all the major sights advertised but also many local areas that only a resident would know about. Virginia showed us some great small little eating areas that she frequents and they were wonderful. We plan to tell our travel agent and all of our friends visiting to be sure to contact Virginia Ann before arriving!

A morning in Penang

Spent a very enjoyable morning with Virginia exploring Penang. She picked us up at our hotel was there early, and showed us some of the key sights. She took us to some local markets , places we would never have found. She knew everyone there and it felt very welcoming. We stopped for coffee and cake an opportunity to try food that we would never normally do. She was knowledgeable about local history and customs which really helped our understanding of the city and its customs . All in all a great tour and money well spent. Thank you Virginia!

Brilliant

Deffrey is a brilliant guide, we had previously been to Penang, so had already seen some of the highlights, Deffrey was so flexible and accommodating, it also rained (extreme) so he rescheduled to get us to an indoor venue out of the worst of the weather, and waited until the cloud lifted so we got the view from Penang Hill. Lunch was fabulous, at a restaurant we probably would have overlooked. I would highly recommend Deffrey, and would definitely choose him as a guide if we return to Penang. Thank you Deffrey 😊
