Matahari Cycles 4 hour tour is an excellent way to see the other side of Penang Island away from the touristic hustle and bustle of George Town and surrounds. Princillia and SJ run a very professional tour with well services good bikes. The tour ride is flat along man made irrigation canals, through an extensive Palm Tree plantation, passing a marina of local fishing boats, stopping in a local fishing village to try “local” coffee and treats and back through a beautiful rural landscape. Princillia’s knowledge of birds, plants and local life is extensively shared over the tour and our every need was met. A highly recommended tour!

Our guides Princillia and SJ were excellent! Took part of a half-day cycling tour in October, and couldn’t recommend them more. Their knowledge and passion for the island, the help provided to small communities, and the support given to the couple of us that were not cycling experts was amazing. Thanks a lot for a wonderful time in Penang!

I had a brilliant cycle tour of Penang with Princilia – we went around the south west of the island, and we didn’t just do cycling but princilia also explained local nature, architecture and culture. The bikes were good quality and the company feels really professional and focused on safety and quality – they took our bags in their vehicle so we didn’t have to cycle with them (but carried our suncream so we had easy access) and gave us as much water as we could need. I would really strongly recommend this as a great way to spend a day in Penang (and make room for all of the delicious food you will try in George Town!!) thanks again!

Excellent day in the saddle!!

Highly recommended cycling tour of Penang countryside. It is affordable and gives you another view of beautiful Penang island. All equipment including bikes and helmets were in best condition. They already labeled and adjusted the bikes to our height. We enjoyed the most attentive guide who shared her passion and knowledge of the area and its wildlife. The area is just beautiful so lush and green. We got to see eagles, monkeys, turtle and many types of birds. Do not miss this tour when in Penang.

We had a wonderful time on the half day tour with our family, including two children. Our nine year olds had no difficulty with the route, and they provided small bikes that worked perfectly. The route was beautiful, we spotted anll sorts of wildlife and we especially appreciated the introduction to village culture and agricultural products from small farms. Matahari is super helpful, when one of my kids left his hat behind it was returned to our hotel within hours. Absolutely recommended, and a big thank you to Princilia and AJ!

Lovely cycle through some beautiful countryside. A great way to see the real Penang. We did the classic ride and got a nice variety of rice paddies, jungle, nature and beaches. We were well looked after by primcilla and SJ. Highly recommended

This tour was the perfect mix of scenery, culture, and light adventure. Whether you’re an avid cyclist or just up for a casual ride, it’s a great way to explore the countryside and enjoy a slower rhythm for the day.
