"Lai Penang Chiak Hong" is a Penang local Chinese "Hokkien" dialect of saying "Come to Penang for Holiday" I was born in the early 70's, a local "Hokkien" Malaysian Chinese, a history enthusiastic and I like reading history related books. I enjoy outdoor activities and I love our tasty Penang street food. I am funny and a down to earth person and I love guiding because I love to share my personal and family history, how and why my great great grandfather left China and came to South East Asia to look for greener pasture more than 150 years ago. I love animals, so much so that I am also a professional dog trainer. I love my country and I love Penang, let me show you how we Malaysians which are made up from multiple races living in harmony next to each others. Let me guide you in Penang and I shall show you the best of Penang, the histories, the stories, the cultures, the colors, the tastes, the smells, the fun and the list goes on and on. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step into a world where nature thrives and orangutans roam free! On this exclusive private tour, you’ll journey across two iconic Penang Bridges, taking in breathtaking ocean views, before boarding a boat for a short 10-minute ride to Orangutan Sanctuary Island. Inside a protected caged tunnel, you’ll come face-to-face with these magnificent creatures, watching them in their natural environment as they swing, play, and interact with one another. This is a rare chance to witness the wonders of the wild – all while staying safely within a caged tunnel. If you have 5 person or more, please contact me for a quotation. If I am unavailable on the day that you want, please contact my TBL colleague Billy O, who also can deliver the same tour.
