  1. Penang Hill (Please note that Penang Hill will be closed for maintenance on 15th - 23rd June 2025, and access to the hill by train will not be available).
  2. Kek Lok Si
  3. Pinang Peranakan Mansion
  4. Clan Jetty
  5. Street Art Murals
    You decide which places to visit and how much time to spend at each. You can explore in-depth or simply take photos and move on. If you're unsure where to go, let our tour guide suggest options for you. The guide will accompany you at each attraction and provide commentary inside and along the way. Penang is a land of charm, and you'll be surprised by what it has to offer – you’ll wish you had more time here!

Activity itinerary

Penang Hill
  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
Since the British first settled here, they had always yearn for respite from the depressing heat, thus they set sight on the highest peak in Penang i.e. Penang Hill or locally known as Bukit Bendera. They built a railway up the hill and bungalows for retreat during weekend. Here we can see the legacy of the bungalows left behind by the British beside experiencing a colder climate compared to lowland. See 360 degree view of George Town, Love Lock, Ginger Garden and monkeys!
Kek Lok Si Temple
  • 1h
During the British era the Chinese flourished and thrived. They practiced their religion steadfastly and built many temples that rivaled those in China, if not better! One of the better one is Kek Lok Si, better described as the largest Buddhist's theme park in South East Asia. Learn all about Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism at the temple. There is a saying here in Penang - "you have not been to Penang if you have not been to Penang Hill and Kek Lok Si".
Pinang Peranakan Mansion
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
See the former house built by a Chinese Captain, Mr. Chung Keng Kwee, called the Pinang Peranakan Mansion. This elite house full of antiques and collectibles from east and west, featured many recollection memories when the Chinese immigrants inter-marriage with the locals and created a fusion of east meets locals, hence a new tradition was borne. It is also a popular shooting location of choice for Malaysian, Singaporean and Chinese movies.
Street Art in George Town
  • 30m
We will go murals art hunting by visiting 3-4 of Penang famous street art murals by Ernest Zacharevic from Lithuania in back alleys. See "Children on Bicycle", "Boy Climbing Wall", "Boy on Motorcycle"and "Boy with Pet Dinosaur". The arts are lively and interesting, literally jumps out for your attention.
