George Town by Trishaw

Get Around Like the Locals Tour George Town’s Chinatown and its Old Town in the most authentic way: by traditional trishaw. Board your private three-wheeled vehicle for a leisurely ride amid the city’s vibrant colonial-flavored streets, glimpsing images of day-to-day life as you go. Stop at the majestic Khoo Kongsi, the most elaborately adorned clan house built outside China. Admire its detailed wood, granite and stone carvings. Continue to the Chung Keng Kooi mansion, once a private home of a Chinese Kapitan —head of the Hai San secret society. Marvel at its remarkable restoration work, period furniture and glimmering porcelain. Cap your tour by exploring the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Admire the historic monuments and landmarks, then enjoy a stroll through the narrow streets to gaze upon the impressive street art and murals on display, before returning to your ship. * Easy - Walking portions are generally over easy surfaces with few steps or inclines.
