Bicycle Tours Around Georgetown

Metrobike provides guided cycling tours in heritage Penang

WANT to explore George Town’s Unesco World Heritage enclave but not keen on driving or walking?

Consider the option of pedalling through the streets of the inner city at a slow pace to fully take in the sights and sounds.

If you don’t have a bicycle, fret not. A company — The Metro Bike — is offering bicycles for rent at a reasonable price.

The eco-friendly bicycle tour company, which started such a service on March 1, has branches located along Komtar Walk and the Tanjung City Marina in Weld Quay. Just look out for the row of bicycles outside its offices.

Its marketing director Ken Khor said the idea came from a group of friends after seeing many tourists walking around to see the inner city.
