TOUR: #209678, [By Tour Van] 1-Day Kuala Lumpur Cultural & Historic City Tour (with TOUR VAN transportation up to 12 paxs), Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan, Malaysia
Lawrence really made our day in KL a fantastic experience. He went above and beyond to make things easy for us. The cruise boat changed port at the last minute and was late letting us off , Lawrence handled everything for us so smoothly we didn’t have to worry at all. He was witty and informative. If I could give him 10 stars I would.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Most of my guests, although satisfied and happy with my service, do not leave a review. Thank you for writing me this review as you promised. Hope to see you again.

TOUR: #49675, [By Car] 1-Day George Town, Penang Cultural & Historic City Tour (with CAR transportation up to 4 paxs), George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia
Lawrence picked us promptly for our 8-hour tour. He was friendly and knowledgeable. We were astonished to learn that he speaks 7+ languages and had a variety interesting life experiences that favorably informed his performance. Clearly he loves being a guide; his unflagging enthusiasm was apparent and refreshing. A note: he was very flexible about our needs and changed our itinerary several times on the fly.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your prompt 5-star review (as you promised). Thank you also for your very generous tip at the end of the tour. By the way, I forgot to collect the RM$80 from you for the beer at Suffolk House. But I am much happy buying your family the beer now. Ha ha. You are the most humorous American that I have met… and obviously the luckiest one.

TOUR: #51598, [By Tour Van] 1-Day George Town, Penang Cultural & Historic City Tour (Mini tour van transportation included), George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia
This was a good day spent in Penang, visiting a very beautiful temple and walking through the city. However, not as good as the other tours we took on our trip to Asia. The downside was the lunchtime, when we were taken to a very touristic food court, that was far from being appealing (we love street food and had asked for good recommendations on the capital of the noodles when we booked the tour). We ended up eating at Starbucks. A good tour, but could have been better.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank-you for taking the time to leave your honest feedback about your tour experience. I am sorry that you were not 100% satisfied, 5 star experiences are very important to me and I do my very best to provide such services. The Food Court has always been a hit with my other travelers, it is not Western food, it is entirely local food. Even the locals eat here often. I did not take you to other places as they are considered unhygienic, I will keep this thought though for the future.

TOUR: #49680, [By Luxury MPV] 1-Day George Town, Penang Cultural & Historic City Tour (Luxury MPV transportation included), George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia
Lawrence was a wonderful tour guide and we booked a higher end, air conditioned vehicle which proved indispensable for escaping the heat. We started out with a Trishaw ride across town–how fun! He knew just the right places to venture for when we needed a break from the heat, a quick trip for some drinks or some cheap shopping. He also left us with expansive knowledge of where else to visit and shop for the remaining days of our vacation in Penang. Thank you for a wonderful tour!
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you, Deanna. Glad you enjoy the tour. Hope to see you again in Penang.

On our second tour with Lawrence, we wanted to alter our tour and he recommended some other options, which ended up being a better fit for our group. He was very nice and made himself available for a night excursion to see the fireflies. He also recommended really great meals in Penang!

Booked a tour for a group of seven with Lawrence and had a great time! We booked two full days in Penang. He picked our group up in a very nice van. He was very knowledgeable and really funny! He was very accommodating to our needs. I would definitely recommend him!

Lawrence is a great guide and driver. He found things for us to see that no tourist would find alone, and the lunch he organised was perfect. His English was easily understandable, and altogether he made this a perfect tour for us. John and Jean Harris.

Wow! Lawrence was great! He did a great job sharing information and taking us to the top spots in George Town and Penang. My husband uses a mobility scooter and Lawrence knew where we needed to go for the sites to be accessible. He also scheduled things in a way that allowed us to avoid the cruise ship buses. We had a wonderful day with Lawrence and would highly recommend him!
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you, Melanne. Hope to see you again in Penang!
