Someday, we will return and maybe, drive all the way to Penang myself.... All the best with the picture parade so members can have a choice selection.

Any of you members seeking a copy or more from Batty, pls do so with your heart & love for his work and place he speaks proudly of and it will be your money well spent too...
He has been an excellent company and guide while we were in Penang, a timely booking made is helpful for him to give you and your itinerary every bit its worth in showing you what Penang, in Malaysia, has in store as a Pearl of the Orient...

All the best to you Batty for a new line and alternative to recovery with Tourism!!

TOURS FOR PENANG

Thanks Yogi for the kind words. I do love my home state and there is more to be proud of now. We have been declared a UNESCO heritage site and a northern hub for regional travel. This means, not only can you visit Penang, you can catch the action in Phuket and Koh Samui in Thailand and go to Medan, Banda Acheh and Bali in Indonesia!

What's there to do?

Plenty!

- sunbathing and other activities on the beaches
- go shopping at flea markets, nightmarkets, upmarket establishments
- try many different types of food
- heritage sites like fort, clan houses, churches and more
- famous temples like the Kek Lok Si & Snake Temple
- get close to nature like visiting our National Park, Penang Hill and Botanic Gardens
- try many types of fruits in season like durian, rambutan, mangosteen and more

How much is a room in Penang?

Well if you go 5-star it is around US$161 and if you decide to rough it out, rooms can be as cheap as US$20! Unbelievable but true. Despite higher cost of living in Penang, we are still much cheaper compared to other big cities like Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru.

1. Get in touch with me through my PM.
2. Specify who, how many and their ages.
