Hi guys , I hope I can get a helping hand from you all . I am planning a class trip for about 6 days .  So , I have some questions here :

1) How many days should we stay at penang ? ( I am planning stay there about 4 days , no ideas for the rest 2 days )

2) What places should we visit at penang ? ( fun places plz , I heard that thats a escape theme park or something 
    else.)

3) After penang , we will be on the way to KL , but hope can visit some nice beach or anywhere . ( I am planning visit lumut but seems like there is less fun at there.)

anybody stayed in Flamingo hotel before? Any feedbacks? Deluxe seaview room only rm199(rrp rm754) . Planning to book through groupon offer.

That hotel is pretty far from Georgetown. Basically area for BEACH activities.

If you have car then no problem to get around.

Rm199/= per room at what period ? Now till Nov ... Low season , besides the school holidays. So That pricing is not that cheap.

Just "Google Hotels in Penang". Can get pretty good deals.

Stay in Georgetown is a better option. Unless your prority is the Beach.

Enjoy .... Food in Penang is good. But you need to know where it is. Many so call Hawkers are Bogus. Giving Penang Food a bad name. Just do your Homework Online.

Google "Penang Hostels" ..... Many good Hostels with rooms are available in Georgetown itself.

SO getting and exploring George Town is Easy. Plus lots of Hawkers areas within walking distance. Near Komtar.

Check out Hostel World for recommendation.

Suggest to take Bus to Butterworth.Bus - Trans National ( But on Fri,Sat & Sun ) Do check.Other buses are okay too. Not all are good.

Then just walk to the Ferry terminal (5mins) and cross to Penang Island by Ferry - Rm1.20 ??

Once you are in Penang. Walk out to main road ( Jalan Pantai). 10 mins to Hostels/Hotels in Georgetown.

See above for Hostels there.
