Great guide, great tour!
RAYMOND_S, Apr 2024
Very thorough, very knowledgeable, very kind. Very safe driver and works with your preferences. Highly recommend Cheam!
An excellent day!
Robert_L, Mar 2024
My driver was so helpful and he tailored my day to accommodate my interests as well as my mobility issues.
See George Town in a day - full power and a lot of good experiences
Hans_S, Feb 2024
We had a very dedicated guie, Cheam, who really could tell us about the history of the town, and the history of the buildings and almost everything else. The visit at the mansion was very interesting, beacuse we had so much information. We made good relations with our guide, and had a wonderfull and long day, almost 9 hours. The waiting time at Penang Hills is not good. Please find a better way there and find another place in the city to get the same view. E.g. at the Kek Lok Si temple.
Perfect Day in Penang

Our guide/driver Eng Seong was fabulous. He took us to great sites; was very knowledgeable about history; was very conversant in English; had a great sense of humor. He was perfect! He made this tour extra special for us. We particularly liked that He stayed with us all the way. No other guide has done that.. Everything was perfect. We only wish all our tours could have been this good
No Penang for You!
Mindy_M, Feb 2024
We received an email the night before the tour that the tour operator overbooked and cancelled our spots on the tour. The booking still showed active in the app so it was confusing. I had to call viator customer service to initiate a refund. We were lucky to book an excursion at the last minute from our cruise ship.
More like a driver than tour guide
Jun_L, Jan 2024
My tour guide drove us to the scenes and bought tickets as advertised. But he gave little introduction to the visited scenes. He left us at the gates of most scenes.
Excellent…
William_B, Dec 2023
Picked up on time in clean and comfortable vehicle. Very pleasant and knowledgeable guide. Made us feel comfortable during the entire trip. Really good tour locations giving us a great sense of the city and culture. Wonderful lunch at a local place. Perfect for a shore excursion.
Interesting full day trip of Penang
Nagesh_S, Nov 2019
An interesting and captivating sightseeing trip. The guide spoke good English and was very knowledgeable. Will recommend this operator
Penang Express Tour
JoAnn_C, Jul 2019
We were a group of 5 above-50 years old ladies so we wanted an easy tour. This tour was perfect for us since the pace was not too fast and we were able to see the major sites in the city in one day. Our tour guide, Muhammad Firdauz, was really fun and very informative. He was very nice and considerate and would always ask us if the activity was ok with us. I highly recommend this tour (and Firdauz) for people who want an express view of Penang.
Traumhaft
Thorsten_P, Jul 2022
Muhammad war ein ganz hervorragender Guide. Die Tour wurde an unsere persönlichen Bedürfnisse angepasst. Er hat ganz wunderbare Details und Geschichten erzählt. Es war ein phantastischer Tag. Muhammad ist wirklich ein sehr zuvorkommender Guide- absolute Weiterempfehlung.
