Overview

Swap fixed-time guided groups for the freedom to explore George Town’s UNESCO World Heritage core at your own pace. Wind through the Clan Jetties built by Chinese migrants, wander Armenian Street’s shopfronts and street art, and step inside Khoo Kongsi’s ornate clan house before crossing between the Kapitan Keling Mosque, Sri Mahamariamman Temple, and the Goddess of Mercy Temple – a living record of the faiths and trade routes that shaped the city. GPS-triggered audio starts automatically at each stop, works fully offline once downloaded, and you can start, pause, or resume anytime. Narrated by Jiar, a George Town local, with lifetime access so you can revisit the tour whenever you like.
