• 5Great day experiencing Penang cultural wonders!

  Mr Joey was a fantastic driver - arrived on time, clean car, very hospitable to show us around beautiful Penang in particular the Kek Lok Si Temple followed by a lovely local lunch at a local hawker stall. En route home we visited the local Batik Factory - the management team showing exactly how they are made by hand. Finishing the day with coffee and cake to celebrate my birthday ... what a wonderful day that we will remember for a long time. Amanda & Andrew

  Joey skillfully created a 6-hour private tour for us in Penang during our day trip from Singapore yesterday. Before meeting him at the airport, we were worried about doing too much or too little during the tour, but he included just the right number of attractions. We, of course, wished we'd had a bit more time to explore other sites, and at the same time, we were so glad he didn't try to show us more, because visiting a few significant sites in a day was just enough for our style of travelling.
