Reviews
Mark was very punctual, knowledgeable about the history of Penang and he knew what to recommend as to the different ethnic cuisines.
It turned out that our tour was small and that made it even better as Mark was accommodating to make few changes here and there.
The food was fantastic with local Indian, Malay/Indian and Chinese. He ordered just the right amount for us and I enjoyed all the dishes.
The story of how he grew up in a certain neighborhood and the family history was also enlightening as he explained Penang's very colorful history.
If you plan a trip to Penang or have been here but not taken Mark's tour, I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Penang. I took a friend who has lived here for six years and even he was amazed and pleased with Mark's tour.
We had lofty expectations and are happy to record that Mark showed us the best of Penang, and how the local cuisine is an integral and complex part of the unique heritage of Penang. Furthermore, Mark also took it upon himself to go beyond his scope to engage with the participants to see to their every need, staying sensitive to their various specific dietary requirements. Upon our request, he also engaged a professional photographer and a supplier of Malaysian traditional costumes so that the team could have a traditional Malaysian themed group photo.
We thank Mark for an exceptional and memorable experience, and for his patience, professionalism and attention to detail. We look forward to the opportunity to work with Simply Enak in the future as we are grateful he took on the load of organisation details and worked hard to ensure our participants fell in love with the island as we have.
It is with pleasure that we strongly recommend Simply Enak for this.
