A wonderful day in Penang - We had an amazing day. We went places we would never have seen without “ boy”. He was really helpful throughout our trip, great communication beforehand and sent us photos after. He was always ready for us when we returned from another adventure. He has us back at the ship around the time we asked. A wonderful cruise day out. 5* Thanks boy!!

Penang Family Holiday - Wonderful experience with Nasir Ali “Boy”
Do book if you want a personalised tour of Penang that suits your individual needs.
I was traveling with my mother who has limited mobility and my brother. Many of the tourist attractions in Penang require a lot of walking or steps, Nasir was able to tailor our day to our needs suggesting attractions that suited all our interests. The booking is for 8hrs and I thought that we would finish early (maybe 5hrs as my mother would get tired) but we did end up using the full 8hrs as we truly enjoyed the experience.
Nasir will tell you a little about the different neighborhoods and history of the areas. Pick-up was prompt and the vehicle was very comfortable – it was a sedan. I mentioned that we were leaving the next day and he mentioned that his brother-in-law Ahmed has a larger vehicle (as we had a lot of luggage) if we needed transport to the airport. Both Nasir and Ahmed were on time and sent texts prior to arrival – communication was prompt.
Happy to recommend both Nasir and Ahmed to anyone looking for reliable transport and good local knowledge of Penang.

8 hrs tour of Penang Island. - Hello everyone! we are from Dallas, Texas visiting the beautiful island of Penang. We were truly blessed to have Nasir Ali, as our tour guide. We went on a 8 hrs tour of Penang, on Sept 2nd. Nasir is very knowledgeable, explains everything in detail. He is kind, respectful and a very humble person, always making sure we are comfortable, He took good care of us. If we could give him a higher rating, it would be a 10 star ⭐️ for his top notch service. We will definitely recommend him to our friends and family. Thank you Mr.Nasir Ali for your wonderful hospitality and for making us feel welcome, we truly appreciate it.
