Langkawi To Georgetown, Penang (Traveling Malaysia On A Budget)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июл 2022
- **So after some technical difficulties we are finally getting our Penang videos out! Unfortunately, things aren’t running perfectly in line on the channel now but we still wanted to share our time here **
After our last travel day we aren’t too sure how this is going to go but here goes nothing…
We are setting off from Langkawi this morning and we have quite the journey ahead of us! Finding up to date information on how to get to Georgetown, Penang (the cheap way) was a lot harder than you would think so we have a ferry, a bus, a train and hopefully another ferry to get to our final destinations!!! So here’s hoping this goes smoothly
P.S If you are also travelling on a budget, we hope you find this helpful 👍🏻

Hey, we're Eoin and Aisling, a couple from Ireland who have packed their bags, waved goodbye to home and set off to travel the world in search of new adventures!
We started our journey by spending 3 months walking from the top to the bottom of Croatia and exploring a few of the boarding countries. Then at the start of January 2022 we hopped on a flight to South East Asia!
We hope to be in this part of the world for the next year, but who knows what might happen along the way, our plans are forever changing!
We tend to plan each day as it comes and can't wait to see what the world has in store for us!
Peace out x

@@EoinandAisling 😁
Penang is beautiful.
So so beautiful!! So glad we visited
Hi.. great vlog guys...
I just have one question, what if we reverse the route (Go from Penang to Langkawi).. Will the transportation switch be the same? Could you please help me understating the route then? I am travelling next week and I am very nervous as I am able to find any related info online.. Please help!
Welcome to Penang! By the way 'Setar' in Alor Setar is pronounced as Star (English) in this case . :)
Oh no way!! We never would have got that right haha thank you
The opening scene I honestly
Though Aisling was covered in tattoos 😂 the pink blends into her skin 😂😂
Did I not show you my new chest piece!?! I think I'm rocking it haha
@@EoinandAisling thon Bamboo tattoos are magic
Hey guys it's always nice when a Journey goes well 😌🙏 happy for you guys 🤗
We couldn't believe how smoothly the whole day went, we were in such great form when we got to Georgetown and were ready to go out and explore ☺️
@@EoinandAisling We love those travel day's.
Please visit The Gravityz, food museum, war museum & Penang Hill.
We visited Penang Hill and loved it while we were there, amazing views over the island
How long did it take from leaving Langkawi to Penang? love the channel heading travelling soon and your videos are a great help!
I can’t remember exactly how long it was but We we got the ferry from Langkawi at 9am and I think we arrived in Georgetown around 3pm ☺️
Thank you so much! So glad they are helping you!☺️
I know this is a while after the video uploaded, but was just wondering if you guys pre-booked the ferry?
Hey! No we didn't prebook anything for this travel day. Just showed up and hoped for the best haha the ferry leaving Georgetown runs all day so if you miss one or its full you won't be waiting long until the next one
Only the intercity trains have toilets. The ETS train service have toilets and buffet coach. The service that you took is a comuter train .
Oh we did not know! We will have to keep this in mind, thank you!
Alor Setar is my hometown....very small city
We actually really enjoyed this journey as we got a sneak peak of Kuala Kedah and in Alor setar
Sorry if I missed this… but why didn’t you just get a ferry direct to George Town from langkawi?
It wasn’t running at the time of our trip
@@EoinandAisling ah unlucky must have had bad seas I guess
Kuala = Delta / Basin, Kuala Kedah = Kedah River Delta
Wasn't the train from Kuala Kedah available? It is basically the same train your are catching in Alor Star...😊
Thank you Rizlan, we really love your translation for us! We looked into it but couldn't find any times online but we really enjoyed getting the public bus, there was a great breeze coming through the windows to cool us down haha
No train off Kuala kedah or Kuala perlis, for Kuala perlis the nearest train station would be Arau and Kuala kedah is Alor Setar.
Anyway Kuala means river estuary or river mouth
We enjoyed the journey regardless haha
Thanks for sharing...All the best
Thank you ☺️
Used to have ferry direct to penang.
We heard this, it would be so easy if it was still running but we actually enjoyed this route and getting to see some of the smaller towns that we probably would have never even heard of otherwisr
@@EoinandAisling a lot of businesses did not survive the 2 lost years
It's very sad to see and hear about but hopefully thinks are starting to pick up and again now and businesses can rebuild in the future
3:15 I see that u've become more "Malaysian" - there's a pedestrian bridge right up there, but nope, let's just cross the street like "normal" south east asians haha 😅😅😂😂
What’s the point walking all the way up there when we can cross down here 😂😂😂
Hi, I wonder there was no direct ferry from Langkawi to Penang?
Not that I know of
Try donut milk in penang
Oh we didn't have it while we were there but we will look out for it
U can just fly to from langkawi to penang it isRm89 each
At the time it was slightly dearer and we didn't mind doing it our way. We got to experience the public transport this way too!!
Wonder why you didn't take the direct route : ferry from Langkawi to Penang? The journey will take about 3 hours max and cost about RM70 per person.
Edit : The comment above before I came to the last part of your video. Now I understand, your indirect route cost less for 2 persons - budget travel indeed!!!
That ferry wasn't running either, ideally that is what we would have done but not possible at the time unfortunately
Why not took a direct ferry from Langkawi to Georgetown?
It wasnt running
@@EoinandAisling IC
Hahaha.. Alor Setan ( Setan Means Evil) ...hahaa....

Too cold.. need to pee.. arghhhhhhhhh... This is tortured...
He always needs to pee haha
