The journey takes you along the village asphalt path and dirt tracks that snake along a waterway.

5.00I had a great time during this tour, which was a nice addition to my visit to Penang. It was very enjoyable to cycle through the countryside and discovering aspects of local life I wouldn't have been able to access on my own. Easy cycling and great scenery. Princilia and her team were very knowledgeable, organized and kind. Definitely recommended!

5.00We spent a morning cycling during our two day stay in Gergetown. It was a huge highlight. We were collected early from our hotel and drove to ‘another world’ of lush green countryside and tiny hamlets. The bikes were in great condition and easy to ride. The cycle tracks were quiet and definitely off the beaten track. We saw huge amounts of wildlife and varied vegetation. Princilla’s guiding was informative and helped us understand how the local community live and work the land and sea. We stopped for delicious coffee and snacks in a small hamlet and were given a fascinating tour and first hand explanation from SJ of growing up in rural Malaysia. Our group was small (6people) and we enjoyed chatting about our travels over the morning. All in all highly recommended! A great experience
Fun and Fabulous adventure ride

5.00This was a very fun and fabulously memorable adventure! 13/10 and 5 GOLD stars! Princilia and SJ were amazing guides and hosts. We rode through stunning rural countryside and learnt a lot about Penang especially its nature and culture. Princilia is a very warm and lovely person and extremely passionate about sharing her knowledge, delivered in a very interesting way! The tour was very well organised, with well communicated details. The bikes were very well maintained and safety explained well and the price great value! We will DEFINITELY be back!
Fabulous cycling adventure in the countryside around Penang

5.00What a fabulous way to get out and about in the surround of Penang, to see something of the countryside, nature and real village life. Although you always wonder whether a bike tour is going to suit you. Will it be too far / not far enough, will it be dull, what will others on the trip be like etc. We really needn’t have worried, our guide Princilia, together with SJ and the rest of the crew, were quick to get us all comfortable on the bikes and allowed us the opportunity to do more or less, while still keeping things interesting and the group together. Just BTW I have no idea how Priscilla managed to do all that while taking some fabulous photos of us while we all rode along. Amazing. We had a great time and learnt lots while getting a little exercise. We couldn’t recommend the trip more highly.
Do it

5.00Great way to spend a morning outdoors in Penang. We were picked up from our hotel and dropped back off by 1PM. The tour was informative, our guide (Princilia) was experienced and personable, and the weather was perfect. Highlights for me were the palm plantation, and learning a bit about Hokkien Chinese culture in the village. If I’m back in Georgetown I would definitely sign up for a longer tour!
Excellent cycle tour in Penang

5.00An excellent cycle adventure! Princilia and SJ from Matahari are great guides and were very knowledgeable about plants and animals of the area around Balik Pulau. She sent many photos of the trip. The cycle trip took place over quiet country roads, paths and mainly flat, so felt very safe. Very authentic cultural experience at a local village for coffee.
A very enjoyable cycling tour around Balik Pulau

5.00If you wish to do a short cycling trip in the Penang countryside, I would highly recommend this tour. Princilla and CJ from Matahari are fantastic guides, very professional and knowledgeable about the area, flora and fauna of Penang. The cycling is not too strenuous, with plenty of stops along the way. Thank you, Matahari, for a thoroughly enjoyable cycling tour.
