I take great pride in introducing clients to the rich history, vibrant culture, and breathtaking natural beauty of his planned itineraries. Humorous and quick to crack jokes, I am a natural icebreaker. Beside jokes, I am a wanderer because of my enthusiasm for sharing his experiences. I find that interacting with individuals from all walks of life broadens his perspective and opens his eyes to the world beyond Malaysia. "I always imagined myself as someone who would share stories about my multicultural country, but being a tour guide takes me around the globe through the experiences of my clients. " As a 'homegrown' tourist guide, I may guide clients to nearby destinations on foot or in a vehicle to explore more distant locations. I am also flexible in customising the tour program according to the client needs. * Bachelor Sc (Hons) Tourism Management (2nd Upper), Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

Overview of your Penang tour

This tour shows the guests how Georgetown's multi-ethnic neighborhood lives. This walking tour takes 4 hours. Tour guides will greet the guests at specific spots. Founded by the British, Fort Cornwallis is where they first arrived in Malaya. After that, the trip will continue along the Esplanade with a nice perspective of the mainland. Stopped to learn about the white City Council Hall, Malaya's former British administrative office. Walk through 'The Harmony Street' to visit the Anglican Church, Chinese Temple, Hindu Temple, and Kapitan Keling Mosque. Flower garland vendors, Chinese prayer shops, restaurants, currency exchange, and jewelry stores are along the path. Each site has its own unique story. The journey continues to Jalan Armenia and Clan Jetty, where Chinese have lived the house on the water since the mid-19th century. The tour ends when it walks through the Penang ferry terminal to the last stop. I can customize this tour according to your request.
