FIRST CLASS TRAIN BANGKOK TO PENANG MALAYSIA | Hua Lamphong Train Station Thailand

Step into the world of opulent travel as we unveil Halef's extraordinary first-class train expedition from Bangkok to Penang, Malaysia.

Our journey commences at Bangkok's Hua Lamphong Train Station, a vibrant hub of departure. The allure of the tracks beckons, and each day a train departs from Bangkok, en route to the Padang Besar Station on the Thai-Malaysian border. This is where our cross-border odyssey truly begins.

Embarking on the KTM Padang Besar to Butterworth Komuter Train, the captivating journey through Malaysia unfolds. The train seamlessly leads us to Padang Besar in Malaysia, a testament to the harmony of international railways. Here, a seamless transfer awaits, leading us to the majestic Butterworth Komuter Train. The final step in this enchanting voyage is a swift ferry voyage to Georgetown, Penang - the jewel of our expedition.

Relive the grandeur and elegance of this remarkable train experience as we transport you through this vlog.

I made the same trip with my wife. All the way to Singapore.
But we tock more easy and spend one night in Hat Yai.
We took the privat cabin and we had new train with
red seat covers.

great video. the ferries were retired in mid-late 2020.. now they have newer smaller boats for pedestrians... no vehicles anymore

I took this trip for curiosity two years ago. I lived in BKK at the time. Flew to Kuala Lumpur and decided to experience the train ride from KL to BKK. It was comfortable enough but I was disappointed with the scenery overall. Was cool when they prepared the bed but it was annoying to not be able to charge my devices. Been there and done that. I may check out the overnight train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai once the quarantine ends. Good luck on your journey

That's one epic journey! I've been through Hua Lamphong a few times, it's a pretty good station. The train looks much nicer than what I've been on before - but then again I've never been in 1st class haha. Nice sunrise, definitely worth having a window view! Always worth trying those little unknown treats. Hope you enjoyed Penang!

[kollapsiblelungs]

[TheWorldnUs]

Long trip!!! I didn't even realise you could train it all the way from Bangkok to Penang.  It's a little bit nasty they don't change those sheets.

Maybe you want to try to enter Malaysia's peninsula from the east side next time. Take a train to Sungai Kolok, then crossing the river by boat to Pengkalan Kubor, Kelantan, Malaysia. From there, you can take an express bus to Kuala Lumpur. If you're a train guy, take omnibus/taxi from the border station to Pasir Mas town, take a sleeper train to Gemas or even Johor Bahru. Gemas is basically like Hatyai station's counterpart of Malaysia. The departure time is around 7.30pm. Or maybe, a detour vacation. take a bus from Pengkalan Kubor to Kota Bharu, then take a bus to Kuala Besut Jetty to go to Perhentian Island. 🤣😸

[ElderMillennialDigitalNomads]

Awesome I did not know the train was an option :) I'm curious to see what our after lockdown options are since we are currently in Phuket :)

Thai King is the leader of Thailand. I have great respect for them.

[crankshaft]

The one thing which strikes me in Bangkok is the electrical wires dangling in a mess, electricians in Thailand seems a crazy lot.

*THAT IS NO FIRST CLASS* IT'S 3RD CLASS i DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU LIED.

Happy to see you enjoying your dream-life!
