Group of 4, taxis is more time-saving.
But I'm not sure if they mark up their prices or go by meter.

Hi there...

I'll be staying at traders hotel, any advice how to get to Sleeping Buddha from hotel? how far is it? is it more practical to take a taxi as there are 3 of us.
Is the Sleeping Buddha and Kek Lok Si near each other? adviseable to go on the same day?

thanks in advance ya...

Timing aside, I prefer to travel by Jetstar becos they have less pple.

If u go to T1 and also Penang airport, airasia counters are always jammed packed with pple.

When I returned from Penang, when I looked at the q at airasia counters, at least 50pax q-ing.

Jetstar no pple, so much faster.

Whenever I see airasia crowd, I scared.
