Penang, Malaysia: minivan rental hints
Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Penang are: Ford Galaxy 7 seater, Opel Zafira, VW Caravelle, VW Touran, Hyundai Trajet 7 seater, Toyota Tarago 8 Seater and others.

Standard capacity of a minivan in Malaysia is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.

Please note, that in order to rent in Malaysia a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.

Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Penang.

Before leaving the parking garage in Penang, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you a great driving experience on the roads of Malaysia!

Driving Advices for Malaysia – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
If the quality of main city roads remains quite satisfactory, the quality of rural roads is poor. Often they do not have asphalt covering and are very narrow, so even two cars have too little space to pass one another.
You will see road signs of international standard on the roads of Malaysia, but there are also many local ones, where all the information is written exclusively in the national language. Since writing in Malaysia is based on the Latin alphabet, you will find it simple to understand the meaning of the majority of road signs. Foreign drivers will also be surprised with the unusual location of many road signs – they are often set after the crossroads.
Experienced drivers suggest seeking help of local people as that way it will be much easier to find your way to the desired place. Local people are very friendly. They treat foreigners with respect and are always happy to help with advice.

Travelling in minivan through Penang
The island has adopted such a notion as low season featuring the decrease of the tourist flow. The low season starts on the Penang island in September and lasts till the beginning of December. During this period many museums and landmarks may be closed for reconstruction.

Numerous restaurant and shops of the capital of the island accept credit cards. The optimum way to pay for goods and services is national currency. Local banks offer the most profitable rates of currency exchange. The banks operate from 9:00 till 16:00.

Tourists used to European meal should avoid tasting ethnic dishes in large quantities from the first days of visit. The matter is that local treats are prepared with addition of hot spices and herbs which will seem strange to foreign guests.

The island features numerous open air cafes so tourists have a chance to try original ethnic treats right in the street. One should opt for that café featuring the longest queue as in this case one may reckon upon the highest quality of meals. As a rule a cost of treats in such street concessions does not exceed 1 USD meanwhile a serving size will be rather impressive.

In the heat of the tourist season large stores and shopping centers operate from 10am till 10pm without a lunch break. Tourists should keep in mind that cost of goods on local markets is several times lower than this in upscale boutiques and shopping centers. Besides, markets welcome bargaining meanwhile shopping centers and super markets offer fixed prices.
