WHY THIS TOUR?
Describing Penang is describing an island with a beguiling blend of British, Chinese, Malay and Indian influences; the multicultural facets of this off-the-coast marooned destination have its roots now spread around the island. With the capital George Town as its pride and joy, under UNESCO protection since 2008, Penang is more than just an alluring beach destination with a pristine jungle in the centre of it all.
Often labelled as the unofficial food capital of Malaysia, there is no shortage of ‘fine-dining’ options, ranging from street hawkers to established names in the culinary circuit. Ideas for trying out the local cuisine are unveiled after you have completed this introduction of Penang Hill and its most famous temple – the Kek Lok Si.
