Eddie was kind, professional, knowledgeable and passionate about Penang. The tour covered the car trip to and from Balik Pulau, a short, leisurely and extremely picturesque bicycle ride through the village, a walk around the village and two farm visits. Eddie was kind enough to drive the more scenic route back to Georgetown through Batu Ferringhi. He patiently answered my many questions and gave the best service.Excellent experience, from the beginning till the end.

Eddie was amazing. He took us on a relaxing ride through the local country side pointing out features we would have never known. Eddie took us through a fishing village, had breakfast at a local shop, rode through palm plantations with explanations of the planting and growing process. He took us to a local farm housing different types of animals. We tasted the local ice cream. What a treat on a hot day. Eddie is very humble, knowledgable and a joy to have as a guide. My husband and I highly recommend him.Great experience getting away from town and riding through the Malaysian countryside. A gentle ride so anyone could comfortably participate. NB-bikes not the best.

One of Penang’s best-kept secrets, the southwestern part of the island which is called Balik Pulau offers bicycle rides for Rm7 each through quiet little towns as well as visits to an animal farm and a ‘bedak sejuk’ (traditional rice powder) factory. One can set out to explore Balik Pulau on their own. With Google Maps as navigator, one can cycle along quaint villages, passing by a fishing village and making occasional stops to enjoy the beautiful scenery. A fantastic way to see the natural beauty and feel of fresh clean air.
