Penang Luxury Travel Guide: UNESCO Zone & George Town

On Dec 23, 2020

Penang is known as the foodie capital of Malaysia but there’s so much more to it than its culinary delights! Since 2016, I’ve been to Penang Island 8 or 9 times … spending 90% of my visits in the historic UNESCO zone in George Town (Pulau Pinang). In this 23-minute Penang Luxury Travel Guide video, I’ll share my top 5 favourite hotels, places to eat & drink, things to do, and the easiest way to get from KL to Penang stress-free.
