Our friends and my husband and I booked separately, but our drivers met up and kept us together as a group!. We had Franco and Kris. They were there waiting for us, spoke English beautifully, had so much knowledge to share, took pictures for us, and it was such a fantastic way to see Penang. I just can’t even recommend them highly enough. We had a marvelous day they took us to see everything That we wanted to see plus things we didn’t even know we wanted to see. we didn’t want to carry some of our bags and just left them in the car while we were touring. Couldn’t have been happier!

Aru is a wealth of knowledge and is a great tour guide. From the moment he arrived to the pier until we were dropped off Aru shared beautiful stories and facts about Kuala Lumpur. We all give Aru 5 stars!

We had a great guide, who was knowledgeable, spoke decent understandable English. He worked with us in terms of the agenda and the places we visited, because I don't have good mobility. Definitely worthwhile experience.
