Journey to Gurney Plaza by Rapid Bus and Ferry
Robert's Google+
Ample seats for passengers waiting for next ferry. Rushing in once the yellow gate opened. Feeling nervous there would not be enough ferry seats being forced to wait another ferry. Relieved, the ferry able to get loads of passengers on board.
The most favorite bus of all the tourists. Rapid bus no. 101. Take you from the jetty all the way to Teluk Bahang. In the route, it pass Chulia Street, Komtar and Gurney Plaza. It takes more or less RM2.00 per trip.
Walking down a short distance from the Weld Quey jetty to Chulia Street. There is a stall serving Beef Noodle and Fried Oyster with Egg.
Fairly easy and inexpensive one-day trip. Thank God and all the peoples. Spent RM 5.00 for a overwhelmingly fun trip. There is no fee taking ferry back to Butterworth / Mainland. Considering it was RM0.60 for a ferry return trip
Embark a trip from Sunway Carnival Mall Bus Stop to Penang's Gurney Plaza
Public Transportation is always the ideal choice as to keep all the cash on the food expenses. There is a nice bus stop located just nearby Billion store and Sunway Carnival Mall. Many buses stopped here , take the bus showing " Jetty" . Ask the driver they know best ! From this point, the bus will take you to various bus stops before heading to Jetty. One of the bus stop is Hospital Seberang Jaya.

| Inside the rapid bus |
Comfortable seats and air-condition equipped. One should always prepare enough coins before boarding as the bus driver would not have any spare money for big bank notes.

| On the way to Penang Jetty Waiting Place |
It took one hour more or less depend on the traffic condition. As soon as one arrived the last bus checkpoint "Jetty", there are lots of buses parked at there. Follow the crowd to a passage and head to Jetty area. It was an amazing up and down route crossing sky bridge to get to the Jetty waiting place.

| Pay for a ferry ride to Penang Island |
Get your coins ready before entering to "Jetty's waiting place". The gate is not functioning well so put more coins. I have inserted more than RM 1.20 worth of coins. Queue up to get some old coins as the staff said the gate recognize old coins rather than the new coin.
