As a country, Singapore is a popular hub of the region. One of the more popular practices for holidayers is to explore Singapore, then take a trip up to nearby Malaysia. Malaysia is really accessible from Singapore - you can take a train, drive or even walk in through the Causeway.

Express buses or coaches are a well-established and comfortable method of transport that gets you to the cities of Malaysia such as its capital of Kuala Lumpur (KL). It’s a direct journey, and some coach or express bus companies even provide on-board refreshments! A one-way ticket starts from around $30-$40, and most companies provide daily services.

You can either buy a ticket directly from a bus company, or visit bus ticket online booking websites where there are many destinations such as Batu Pahat, Muar, Malacca, KL, Seremban, Genting, Ipoh, Penang, etc to purchase your bus tickets.
