What can I say about Joo? Friendly, fun, but above all, generous for wanting to share all her knowledge about Georgetown. Her family has left her a rich legacy of anecdotes and past customs that she knows how to convey so we can understand the culture. She showed us little hidden gems of the city that only a local would know. Time flew by! We would have loved to spend more time to keep learning about anecdotes and traditions. Thank you for your generosity, Joo!

Highly recommended guide !
We chose the street art tour with Remy. Besides a super passionate tour about (street) art, he also provided us with interesting random facts and the history of the city. We really enjoyed the tour. After the tour, he also took us to go taste Chinese street food, even though it was originally not included in the tour. He really took his time to make sure we had a safe and great experience. We would 100% recommend Remy as a guide. His passion for art, food and the city in general is really contagious!

Art, History, Hidden Gems and Samosas!!
Well, to put it as succinctly as possible; Remy knows his stuff!! History, Art, Food, Politics, Culture…did we miss anything? My family have not stopped talking about the Georgetown that’s off the tourist map but beloved by locals. Every street, every piece of architecture, street art and artist, Remy was able to give us the story of it all, history books as well as the lived experience of the people of Penang! Oh…and he included a stop to an iconic Two Michelin Star chef and the best samosas you will ever eat in your life. Our tour was adults and teens and Remy catered to all. We HIGHLY recommend Remy and will definitely seek him out again during our next visit!!
