Back of the Bike Street Food Experience – Real Penang!

This isn’t yet an other food tour. It’s a personal street food adventure led by a friendly local host, riding through the heart of George Town on the back of a motorbike.Over four delicious hours, you’ll enjoy a 5-course balanced menu, with each dish served at local spots where real Penangites eat. See the neighbourhoods, hear the stories, and feel the rhythm of the city as you move between stops — not as a tourist, but as part of the street.This is about more than just food. It’s about the people who make it, the places you’d never find on your own, and the connection between culture, cuisine, and community. Ask for Muslim friendly or vegetarian options!
