5.00The private guide George is very friendly, knowledgeable and organised 👍🏻 His car is very comfortable to be in. He will drop us off at the entrance of places while he go parking so we don’t have to walk under great heat!

Not a Tour by an overpriced Driver

2.00This was not at all what I was expecting. Definitely not a guided tour rather just a driver. He would point out something and stop there and tell me to call him when I was finished. At one of the stops I finally had to ask him to show me where to go and when he got out he would walk really far ahead of me. A plus was that he got me a fast lane ticket to Penang Hill which literally saved me hours of waiting in line. It was CNY so it was overwhelmingly crowded and a bit confusing to figure out where to go. Lunch was included and he dropped me off at an Indian restaurant which was pretty good. If you’re just needing someone to drive you from point A to B this would be an ok option. However, if you’re wanting a true tour of the city, seek it elsewhere. Overall, very disappointing and not worth the money.
