Getting from Penang Airport (PEN) to Ipoh takes about 2h by car on an empty road (2h – 2h 30min in heavy traffic) over 154 km via E1 and E28. Our private transfer costs €130 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €190 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.
On arrival: The driver waits in the Arrival Concourse on Level 1 of the terminal building, after immigration, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.
Ipoh, the capital of Perak, lies about 155 km south-east of the airport on the mainland. The road leaves the island on the Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah Bridge, the 24 km second Penang bridge that starts a few kilometres from the airport at Batu Maung and lands at Batu Kawan. From there it joins the North-South Expressway (E1), a toll road that runs south past Bukit Mertajam, Taiping and Kuala Kangsar before reaching Ipoh. Both the bridge and the expressway charge tolls, and holiday weekends bring heavy traffic on the expressway.
Ipoh is known for its old town on the western bank of the Kinta River, where colonial buildings such as the railway station and the town hall stand near streets of shophouses, cafes and murals. Concubine Lane and the old town cafes are a short walk from the station. The newer town lies across the river, and the limestone hills around the city hold cave temples such as Kek Look Tong, Sam Poh Tong and Perak Cave Temple, and the Lost World of Tambun theme park to the north-east. Cameron Highlands is a further drive into the mountains.
Public transport: No direct public transport from the airport to Ipoh. Rapid Penang buses link the airport with George Town, from where the ferry crosses to Butterworth; intercity trains and coaches to Ipoh leave from Butterworth station and Penang Sentral.
