George Town is a little way out of the center of Butterworth, so there's a high chance you'll be doing a bit of driving. If you intend to use George Town as a starting point to discover the city and its surrounds, rent a smaller set of wheels. Nothing beats a compact for maneuvering into those crowded parking spots. Alternatively, if you're heading away from the bright lights and traffic, reserve something with a stronger engine and more legroom.
