Inside the airport arrival lobby, you head for the taxi/limousine stand. There you purchase your taxi coupon and pay accordingly to which zone you are travelling too. There is a surchage after midnight.
You will be assigned a taxi number and wait for the taxi right at the airport exit. You have the taxi all to yourself and do not share with anyone else. There is no need for tips or other charges.
Starting this year, all rear seat passengers also must wear the seat belts. Theme: Other

On the top floor, there are different counters selling bus tickets to all destinations in Peninsular Malaysia as well as Singapore and Thailand. There are also convenience stores as cafetaria.
There is a taxi stand as well as bus services by Rapid Penang to other places in Penang island. Nearby is the Supertanker Hawker Center (10 minutes walk) and the Queensbay Mall (20 minutes walk or by bus Rapid Penang). Theme: Bus

Alot of backpackers rent a motorcycle to get around. No worries, you'll get used to it in no time :)
Penang is a small island...you can do a round island drive in a car in 2 hours (doing about 70km/h average). So a motorcycle is probably the most convenient for parking and getting around. Leave a Comment Theme: Motorcycle

I'm planning for a short trip back to Penang on 24th Oct 1855hrs and return 27th Oct'08 2100hrs by flight. Anyone would like to take the same trip? SQ requires 2 to travel for cheaper price of $328 compare to single pax $415. Hope to get some answer before 20th. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

I used the same company that I used getting from Singapore to KL.
Plusliner run normal buses at cheap prices and the more expensive 'NiCE' buses. The NiCe ones only have 24 seats and therefore are extremely roomy. A breakfast is provided but it is Asian style and it was too early in the day for my stomach!
There is one rest stop for about 20 minutes. The total journey time is around 5 hours. Leave a Comment

Trishaws tend to be found around Penang Road, as that place is full of foreign tourists, esp the backpacker types. Leave a Comment Theme: Bicycle
