"Virginia is an enthuisastic and energetic guide - great local knowledge and fun ideas to learn about Penang."

"I had a fantastic tour of Penang’s Chinese and Indian districts with my wonderful guide, Virginia. As a local, her knowledge of the area was outstanding—she shared fascinating history about the architecture, the many churches, and even pointed out great local food shops along the way. Since I had already been in Penang for a week, Virginia effortlessly customized the itinerary to include areas I hadn’t explored yet, which made the experience feel very personal and thoughtful. She’s a great host who anticipated my needs, kept the tour flowing smoothly, and added a great sense of humor throughout. I highly recommend Virginia to anyone looking for an engaging, insightful, and well-curated Penang experience."

"Jo bee is a passionate, knowledgeable and professional guide to show you this amazing place. She got in touch just after booking and sent photos promptly afterwards. We would highly recommend her. She combines facts with personal anecdotes and communicates well. "

"Joo Bee was a perfect guide on this tour. She frequently checked in for my preferences of what to prioritize and her deep connection and personal stories to the area made it a truly special tour. I can’t recommend a tour with her more! Georgetown is such fascinating city and I’m glad I got to know it better thanks to Joo Bee. "

"Virginia was a perfect match. She picked us up from the hotel, and we felt like we were being greeted by a good friend. On the agenda were some beautiful temples, street art, a market visit where we sampled some snacks, clan jetties, and leisurely strolls through the streets. We understood her English perfectly. She gave us lots of interesting information about the country and its people. Virginia is a very warm, cheerful, and truly wonderful person. We had a lot of fun, laughed a lot, and thoroughly enjoyed our day with her. Dear Virginia, thank you so much! Thanks to you, Penang will always hold a special place in our memories. 🤩😘🙋🏻"

"Remy is a passionate story teller which gave us great insight into the art, food and culture of george town! He was so much fun to hang out with and so flexible with all of our varied interests. Would definitely recommend both the art and food tours with him."

"My wife and I did a street walk experience and it was so interesting and enjoyable"

"We had a great and enlightening experience with Joo Bee and can’t recommend her highly enough. She adapted the tour to our likes, was constantly entertaining and of course shared things only a local would know - if we had been staying we would have been able to make better use of all her tips and advice- thanks for a great morning Joo Bee"

"Had a great tour. He met us at the hotel and walked into the area to see the sites. Yasin had a lot of knowledge and very friendly. Would recommend to have a tour with him anytime. "

"We had a fantastic few hours with Joo. Her knowledge and humour were a delight and should we ever come to Penang again, we would love to catch up with her on another tour. Joo knows how to avoid the crowds and see the sites at your pace. I was disappointed we didn't have enough time to go back to the eateries she recommended. Next time! Thank you Joo. Linda & Geoff"
