Read up on Malaysia, because that’s where you’ll need to head to get your adventure underway.

Being in control of when and where you travel is one of the biggest advantages of having your own rental car on vacation.

• Bukit Mertajam (population of 212,300)

Avoid paying through the nose for a rental car by following these tips:

• Our hard-working filter feature will soon become your new BFF. Check out the biggest bargains from all of the top rental car companies as quick as a flash;
• Set up an email Price Drop Alert for your next exciting vacation destination. You never know what sensational deals will hightail it into your inbox;
• Before you pick up your keys and jump behind the wheel, take a look at both airport and non-airport pickup and drop-off locations to make sure you’re scoring the best deal around;
• You can sometimes save yourself some dollars if your travel plans are flexible. Play with different days and dates and find out how much you can save;
• No one likes getting a late fee. Avoid having to pay for an extra day by ensuring your pickup and drop-off times are around the same time;
• Some car rental outlets offer big incentives to pay immediately, so watch out for these great offers;
• It’s best to book as soon as your vacation dates are confirmed. The early bird gets the worm!

Don’t limit your adventuring to the cities. Penang has some glorious scenery, such as coral reefs, mangroves, and sandy shores. A car like a convertible will help you explore them in style. These rental vehicles are ideal for visitors hoping to soak up the views with the top down. Who doesn’t love the feeling of the wind blowing through their hair?

You’ll be pleased to hear that there’s a huge variety of both luxury and economy rentals in Penang. What you end up opting for will depend on your funds as well as what you plan to do. Specialty vehicles are hard to beat if you’re all about mod cons and comfort. If you want to treat yourself, why not book a fully kitted-out SUV, or perhaps a flashy mid-sized vehicle? On the other hand, if you’re just after a set of wheels to zip around town in at the cheapest price possible, we can help you out with a budget compact vehicle (or something else that’s unlikely to break the bank).

Keep to the left-hand side of the road in Penang. If you plan to rent a car here, take note that the driver’s seat will be on the right. It could take a bit to get the hang of!

One of two things will happen. Your rental car company may bill the amount stated on the fine to your credit card. This is the usual approach. Otherwise, it may provide your contact details to the relevant local agency so the fine is issued straight to you.
