Sightseeing Penang can be done easily and in an inexpensive way by bus. I am happy to say that all Rapid Penang Buses are air conditioned and are very comfortable to be used for sightseeing. They have large, full-screen windows that afford good views of the streets.

Use this Rapid Penang Bus Routes to find details about the routes taken by the public buses in Penang. In addition, you can get a free virtual tour of Penang by bus from this page. I will explain what you can expect to see along the way, and provide suggestions for places of interest where you might want to disembark from the bus, so that you can do your sightseeing more thoroughly. And when you are finish, just cross the street and take the same bus back where you began.

Please feel free to print out any of the Sightseeing by Bus itineraries to use when you explore Penang. The itineraries are free for all personal, non-commercial use.
