How to travel in Penang ~~

Is it difficult to travel in Penang?

That is the question that normally people would ask. Well! If you ask me, the answer is NO. Touring around Penang island is not only easy but it is very convenience.

It doesn't matter whether you want to visit temples, beaches, parks, old monument or some others interesting places in Penang as all this places are easily accessible and well connected. 

Penang transportation that comprises of buses, taxi, cars rental, trishaw or even motorcycle rental are pretty common here. With the latest addition to the public transportation which is the monorail, I can say that Penang will be proud one day to have one of the most complete and integrated transport in the country.

Let me give you some suggestion of how you can travel in Penang. :)

1. Travel In Penang By Paid Buses

Rapid Penang definitely marked a total improvement to Penang public transportation system. With easy to read signboard, a proper route map and helpful drivers, the bus seems to grab the attention of every Penangites. Besides that, the fees also affordable for all passengers.

2. Travel In Penang By Cars

You can travel by using your own car or renting a car at Penang. Renting a car in Penang is not that expensive. For about RM150, you will be able to rent a rather comfortable sedan cars that can sit 5 person. Driving on your own will provide you with much needed freedom and flexibility.

3. Travel In Penang By Trishaws

Taking a trishaw ride is another interesting ways of sightseeing the city of George Town. The open-fronted three-wheeled vehicle allow visitors the opportunity of seeing the sights at a more leisurely and slower pace so that every interesting attraction at around the city area will be fully explored.

There is no standard fare so therefore it would be wise to agree on the price first before you step on the trishaw. For extended sightseeing, it is cheaper to hire them on hourly basis. Just weigh for yourself which type of fare is more applicable to you.
