Penang - Moving Around

Penang’s public transport system is efficient and getting around by taxis, buses or trishaws may be a fun and inexpensive way of catching the sights.

City Taxis
Most city taxis do not use the meter. You may either insist on the meter being turned on or agree on the price before you move off. Taxis normally charge between RM3.00 – RM6.00 for short distances within the city.

City Buses
Most buses use coin machines to collect fares. The main bus terminals are Pengkalan Weld (ferry terminal) and KOMTAR (ground floor).

For extended sightseeing, it is advisable to hire them by the hour.

There are many fascinating tours by air-conditioned coaches to famous landmarks around the island. Check with your hotel reception or tour desk for details on times and prices.
