Penang Self-Guided Tours
Page Location: Home > Tourist Attractions > Self-Guided Tours
The best way to get to know Penang Island and enjoy its many tourist attractions is to approach them in an organized fashion. On this page are self-guided tours which I have personally created. The intention of these self-guided tours is to group and present the tourist attractions according to a logical sequence.
With these self-guided tours, you can explore Penang on your own, at your own time and pace. In addition to not having to pay a tour guide, these free tours provide you an absorbing experience, bringing you upclose to the sights, allowing you to spend more time in places that particularly fascinates you, creating memorable moments for your vacation in Penang. These self-guided tours may be free, by helping you experience Penang in this beautiful way, they are truly priceless.
As most of the heritage sites of Penang Island are located in George Town, the self-guided tours are also centred there. In most cases, they are walking tours which you can do on foot. To cover sights where are outside the Inner Core of George Town, you may need to get public transport - for this, I recommend using the Rapid Penang Bus which has an extensive network all over Penang. You can check the Rapid Penang Bus Routes here.
