    We had Poh as our culinary leader and she was fantastic. Very proud and knowledgeable of Penang's multi cultural history and life. All reflected in the delicious food and bustling streets. My Mum struggled in the last hour, so the tour might have been a bit long, but we loved every minute of it.

    A great introduction to the huge variety of food available in Penang from different nationalities and cultures combined with a walk through parts of the UNESCO listed George Town with the opportunity to learn a bit of local history and customs. Beatrice was an excellent host and guide, ensuring that no-one left any of the stops wanting more and the 3 hours flew by. We were a couple but would be great for families with school age kids. Even fussy eaters would find something to enjoy.
