Penang Holiday Packages

Hot dang, Penang! There are a ton of things to do in this Malaysian state, which perches on both an island and a peninsula.. On Penang Island, you’ll not only find the state’s vibrant capital of George Town showing off influences from various countries—you’ll also encounter beautiful beaches and treasure-filled tropics. Over on the Malay Peninsula is Seberang Perai, and trust us, that hinterland is no slouch either. Book one of our Penang packages to see both sides of this incredible state.

Penang holidays are more popular than ever thanks to Wotif. Our selection of Penang package deals make it possible for you to experience the many facets of Malaysia—all for a price that won’t bust your budget.

Things to Do

If this is your first visit to Penang, have no fear. We’ve put together a list of some of our favourite things to do when we’re in town!

• Trishaw Rides: Don’t bother booking Penang car hire while you’re in George Town—just hop on a trishaw for an authentic tour of the city. These three-wheeled vehicles aren’t as prevalent as they used to be, but they’re still among the most popular ways to get around town. Your driver can give you an overview of the George Town’s most popular sights, and since these compact vessels can easily scoot and swerve around traffic, you’ll get where you’re going without wasting any time. Rates vary from driver to driver, but are generally pretty cheap. Need help finding a trishaw? Look for the brightly-coloured umbrellas atop tricycle-like chariots and get ready for a fun-filled ride from point A to B. Wheee!
• Made In Penang Interactive Museum: If you’re in the mood for an off-the-wall experience, this is the place to be. The interactive exhibits here range from the freaky to the extraordinary, and all involve the Penang culture to some extent. Strike a pose in front of the pop-out wall paintings or immerse yourself in the interactive kiosks that play games with your perspective. You can even enjoy an illusion that’ll convince you you’re having coffee with Penang’s Chief Minister. Whether you’re 9 or 90, you’re guaranteed to have an amazing time at Made in Penang.
• Escape Theme Park: Among the more recent additions to Penang’s menu of attractions is this amusement park that opened in 2012. You’ll find oodles of rides and loads of games in an outdoor environment designed to help you reconnect with nature… while spending less time on your smartphone. Yes, this means you—put that thing away! Kids of all ages are encouraged to stop by this park, which challenges you to climb a tower, traipse across a balance beam, and face your fear of heights during a frenetic freefall.
