Transportation

There are a few ways to get to Kuala Terengganu. You can take a leisurely drive from all major towns in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. Alternatively express buses and taxis head to Kuala Terengganu from different major towns like Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh, Penang, Kota Bahru and Johor Bahru. Malaysia Airlines and domestic budget airline Air Asia offers 4-6 regular flights from Kuala Lumpur to Kuala Terengganu. Fireflyz Air operates on Fokker F50 regular flights from Penang International Airport while Berjaya Air operates daily. Plus there are ample taxis, town and district bus services. Although taxis are not often looking for passengers, hotel reception provides taxis on call. Even car rental offers reasonable rates for those wishing to explore at their own pace. Maybe you’ll be lucky enough to catch a ride in a beautifully preserved Mercedes taxi from the 70s. Trishaws are also available and offer fun rides.
