The Penang Hop-On Hop-Off bus service is a transit bus service within the city of George Town in Penang, Malaysia. Launched in 2014 by a Malaysian firm, Elang Wah Sdn Bhd, it utilises open-topped double-decker buses that ply two routes within the city.[1][2] The bus service caters mainly to tourists, although it was initially marketed to local commuters as well.[3][4]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and movement control order in 2020, the Penang Hop-On Hop-Off bus service has ceased operations.
