You can buy tickets at the station. You can use the automatic ticket vending machine or ask the officer where you are going. Or if anyone is traveling to Kuala Lumpur, you can buy tickets here as well.

3. Butterworth-Penang
- Travel by ferry When you arrive at Butterworth train station, continue by ferry, the price is 2RM (15฿), the travel time is about 10-15 minutes.

This is less cash. And for those who still think that Penang ferry tickets can only be paid by credit card, please adjust again. Travel cards can be used as long as there is a VISA or Mastercard symbol with enough money on the card to pay.

Because there were many of us and it was raining, we called Grab to drop us off at the hotel for only 6RM (47฿) for 4 people. It was so cheap😍😍 Penang will definitely come back every year.
