"Describe" Penang beacuse you are planning a trip, because you want to practice writing in English on a variety of travel topics, because...

A query of this sort makes me feel as though I am being asked to help an ESL student complete a written assignment for class. You can find better travel guidance here if you give us a sense of your interests, your goals, your budget, and all the factors that will shape a particular trip.

zardom, if you are interested in Penang, don't go on a cruise. You would want to stay for several days in Georgetown.. Opt for the E&O if you can afford it.

We flew from Bangkok to Penang on Thai Air.

Why would it make difference how I got to Penang from wherever I was (Bangkok, at the time), don't you want to know how to get there from where you are?

Based on your other threads this looks very much like a disguised opinion survey and I'm not playing.

thursdaysd-

If you dont want to give your opinion, that is fine with me...

thanks for those who replied...

It's the way you are asking the questions zardom. More like a survey or class assignment then a real travel question. Rewords your questions and you'll get better answers and from more people as well.
