Transport a George Town

Puntual, cotxe còmode, gran comunicació i conductors segurs. Com a avantatge addicional, l'operador és una empresa de turisme, així que vaig poder organitzar fàcilment una excursió durant la meva estada a Cameron Highlands. Molt recomanable.

Everything went smoothly for the transfer from Kuantan to KL. The transport provider emailed me and the driver Mr Jaya WhatsApp me one day before the trip. Even though the pickup was scheduled for 12 noon, we saw Mr Jaya’s van parked beside the hotel at 10.30am. Mr Jaya was patient, giving my elderly parents time to slowly board and alight from the van. He was also considerate, stopping twice during the 4.5-hour journey for us to take toilet breaks. He also helped us to load and unload our luggage and bags, and drove carefully, ensuring our safety.

It was a modern, clean bus. The seats were comfortable too. There were charging options for cell phones and free WiFi. Departure was on time and the ride went smoothly.

Thank you to JIN for the warm hospitality. He proactively contacted me the day before and accommodated the cruise ship's early arrival (first photo) by arriving early and waiting outside the pier. The pier was very crowded with people and vehicles, but Jin had already sent photos of his outfit for the day, license plate, and parking spot via the app. We quickly met and confirmed each other's identities. Upon learning our main purpose and attractions for this trip, he also gave us itinerary adjustment suggestions to avoid traffic jams, and introduced local attractions, customs, and architecture along the way, giving us rich gains and knowledge. We bought souvenirs, enjoyed the scenery, ate local fruits and ice cream, and strolled through the alleys of Georgetown, successfully spending 4 full hours in Penang.

Luckily, I had already downloaded the Easybook app to pay the facility charge and QR code charge, so I was able to get my e-ticket smoothly and depart on time. The bus seats were comfortable and the air conditioning was sufficient. However, because it was a public holiday, there was a huge traffic jam on the highway, turning what should have been a 2.5-hour journey into almost 5 hours. After that, I had to take a 30-minute Grab ride to Ipoh city center on my own.

Gran servei. Es van posar en contacte amb mi el dia abans per confirmar els detalls, amb un servei de xat web, i van adaptar-se a una hora de sortida més primerenca (ajust de 30 minuts). El conductor va ser amable i va arribar uns minuts abans. Estaria encantat de tornar a utilitzar el servei de trasllat.

Després de diverses experiències de reserva prèvies, ja confiava bastant en aquesta plataforma. I, efectivament, és molt fiable. Tornàvem de Penang a Kuala Lumpur i pensàvem que podríem comprar bitllets d'avió en qualsevol moment, però vam descobrir que els preus s'havien multiplicat per tres o quatre, i l'autobús de luxe que volíem agafar ja no tenia bitllets, així que vam decidir llogar un cotxe amb conductor. Havíem d'anar de l'hotel a l'aeroport de Kuala Lumpur, però vam triar l'opció incorrecta en la reserva. La plataforma es va posar en contacte amb mi ràpidament per correu electrònic, explicant que si anàvem a l'aeroport, hauríem d'afegir 200 ringgits malais. Per estalviar-nos problemes, vam acceptar. El correu deia que només havíem de donar els 200 ringgits directament al conductor, cosa que era molt convenient. El correu també em va informar amb antelació de la matrícula del cotxe, una foto i el número de telèfon del conductor. Vaig contactar amb el conductor per WhatsApp i tot va anar molt bé. El cotxe estava en molt bones condicions i molt net, i el conductor era molt amable. Quan vam parar a l'àrea de descans, ens va dir que podíem passejar tranquil·lament. No ens va apressar gens. En resum, estic molt satisfet amb aquest viatge.
