Balik Pulau Countryside cycling trip 24/5/25, pickup from Neo+ by Aston Georgetown hotel @7am, 40mins comfortable ride😊😉 - Fr pickup to all activities worth the $ spent especially visit to Saanen Dairy Goat Farm. Owner daughter (sorry did not get her name) & her grandmother are very friendly, attended to us, cut open the fresh durians fr the farm. Up close with the Goats & other animals. Products like goats ice cream & goat’s milk are very yummy & also fresh😋Wong who drove us to Balik Pulau, 40mins comfortable ride & Eddie tourist guide was attentive & knowledgeable. Stop over for toilet break, drink & snack at local kopi shop. Eddie saw that we were struggling to catch up with the group, gave us short cut routes. He even arranged for Wong to pick up us from Saanen Dairy Goat Farm & we continued with the durian feast at our own expenses. We were also given bottled mineral water. Should give a try & recommended if you are in Penang booked via tripadvisor.

Great to get out of the city! - TC’s tour was great, it makes getting out to the country so accessible and the cycling through was such a nice way to see the countryside. TC stopped to give us a great facts that were completely new to us all, that, his humour and chilled attitude, coupled with the beautiful view made the tour great, well worth it.

A must do on your itinerary. - An amazing, unforgettable cycle trip. With so much seen and so much learnt. The guide is informative and passionate which is infectious. There is so many animals and you get to feed some. The locals are warm and welcoming. Would highly recommend this trip.

A lovely, relaxing, morning ride - This was a really fun tour. I didn't stay in Georgetown, so I was really happy to find out I could still get picked up at my Airbnb. I didn't realize Penang was so large until we drove to the village for the tour. I thought the ride went at a good pace, and I loved that we were able to stop to see sights along the route. We had a coffee break and stopped at a miniature farm/zoo where we were served ice cream made from goat milk. I would love to do more tours like this, and I'm glad I decided to do it. My only criticism is that the bike fleet could use a little more maintenance. But they do have a large fleet.

Penang Countryside Ride - A fairly easy ride, though you should have good bike handling skills. The ride is over flat land. A very enjoyable way to explore the countryside of Pinang The stop in a local village includes a drink and a small bite, which is good.

Value family activity - This was a good value tour compared to other bike tours. It was nice to do an easy ride through a local rural district and see some local neighbourhoods and farms. It was a casual, laid back tour
