This is the shortlist to send a friend: 8 morning tours worth the ringgit, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
A small-group George Town morning food tour with 15+ tastings, local guides, and breakfast street-food history, ending near Majestic Theatre.
“Great guide and the selection of food tastings was varied. Some amazing tastes we wouldnt have discovered on our own. Small group tour and perfectly paced.”
A 4-hour small-group morning food tour in Penang’s George Town with 15+ tastings, local history, and guides like Grace and Sandy.
“Sandy Oh Mai was a great guide. Charming, funny, knowledgeable and passionate about her town and its unique food. The food was delicious and even though I have tried a lot of Malaysian food there were some new things to surprise and delight. The instructions say to come hungry and gosh you should, there is a lot of food to eat, we actually asked for half sizes or to share portions but it’s still a lot. Our tour ended slightly late at 2:45 and we were still pretty full by 8pm when we had a separate dinner reservation. There is a fair bit of walking so do wear comfy shoes.…”
Cycle Balik Pulau’s paddy fields with a local guide, snack on local treats, and stop for a container-art photo in a flat morning ride.
“Worth recommending to those who like an active rest connected with a tour on a local village, Sam our guide was a great guide!”
Morning rainforest walk in Langkawi with a nature guide, medicinal plant lessons, and a 2-hour trek that ends where you start.
“This tour was pretty good. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and had really cute, quirky ways of telling us about the jungle. Need to have an adequate level of fitness. Mum (58, not so fit) and I (23, pretty active) were quite tired by the end of the roughly 2 hour walk!”
Morning Penang street food walk with a guide: roti canai, nasi lemak, curry mee, market sights, and temple culture in 3 hours.
“My husband and I took a food tour in Penang. Although the tour allows up to 12 people, we found out that we were the only participants that day. We had Beatrice as our tour guide who was excellent. Although we were late to our meeting pRead more”
Sunrise hike to St Veronica’s Hill from Kota Kinabalu with pickup, an English guide, breakfast, and Mount Kinabalu views at first light.
“Kota Kinabalu and Mount Kinabalu are amazing places. Amazing Borneo was also incredible! Five-star hospitality. Louisa, Emily, and all the staff were really friendly. They helped us a lot and provided everything we needed. I highly recommend Amazing Borneo's service!”
Morning cycling in Balik Pulau, Penang. Transfers included, easy pace, paddy-field snacks, LoveUU tea farm, and a Malindo Beach finish.
“A very nice couple of hours riding through the country side. Easy ride with Sam. He shared a lot about the local lifestyle.”
Gunung Brinchang sunrise, Mossy Forest walk, and a behind-the-scenes Boh tea factory visit, with included Cameron Highlands transfers.
“Our guide gave us plenty of explanations about the tea plantations. Arriving first at the Boh Tea House is perfect for taking photos from the terrace.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
