Book the fast track and order you ticket via Viatour by far the best way to do it. View point worth the trip up there, plenty of grab taxi for your return at the base station

Really worth doing this trip . The train ride takes you 714m above sea level and then when you get to the top the views are amazing.

For faster experience esp for elderly or young kids, get the fast pass and book ahead of time. You skip the line and can get the best seats on the funicular. Waiting area have seats and aircon esp up at the top.

A fabulous place to visit. The Funicular is a great experience. Fast track tickets recommended. We went early at 9am so crowds were not too much of an issue. The walk around the Habitat and skywalk is a must do We saw monkeys and enjoyed listening to the jungle noises. A nice Ed drink in the cafe at the end was welcome and there is a shuttle service back to the station.

Unfortunately Penang hill was not a positive experience for us. We were warned that there could be queues but we had to wait over an hour an a half to take the funicular up. The view is nice and we did a walk but not much to do up there really. When we went to get our queueing ticket to come back down we were told it would be an hour but we actually had to wait over two hours before we could get back down. If we had know we would have walked! We could see when we were in the line that they weren’t doing a good job of making it efficient as sometimes that cable car was going pack down empty despite hundreds of people waiting, then we were waiting so long for the next funicular to come even though it’s only a 5 minute ride are there are two of them. Overall something that could have been a good experience was ruined by the wait time. Not worth it for us at all.
