Welcome back. Luxury buses between the two countries is not a new thing though. In the early days, aeroline was a brand name but now many brands have appeared. Aeroline still ply between kl and singapore. It is unfortunate malaysia cancelled the high speed rail project due to some constraints brought about by covid19 and political change of gov. The estimated travel time using the proposed hsr was 90 minutes between kl and singapore . We hoped that in the near future a big private company can fund it.

You have to be back in Malaysia or Singapore in 2027. In 2026 Electrified Double track train between Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru will be completed. Whilst connecting Rapid Transit System between Johor Bahru and Singapore is scheduled to be completed by end of 2026. So 2027 would be a perfect year for both of you to try out these new trains. High Speed Train (250-350 km/hr train) is also planned between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. The politics and finance talk between the country is yet to be concluded. Once this is done, then it will be your next trip to Malaysia/Singapore.
Welcome back to Malaysia.Welcome back to KL. I enjoyed watching it and loved it. Your videos always keep me entertained. It was great. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for a very informative video, I was skeptical about taking bus or coach from Singapore to KL but now this video convinced me to explore alternative ways to KL, keep it up😊👍💪

That bus looks amazing! We are in Johor Bahru and will need to get back to KL in the coming weeks so you've convinced us to try and get one for ourselves! 😂 😂

I've just been warned that clearing customs in KL airport is now a nightmare because of some concorse or something being shut down and wont be open for a year or so. That's why I am exploring alternatives. This luxury bus from Singapore seems to be a good alternative.
Hi :) Thanks so much for the kind words!! We only have one more Malaysia video and then we share our Sri Lanka ones :) But we know we will be back to Malaysia many times to see more! Thanks so much for watching!!
Thanks for the info. Was scouring the internet looking for where the bus stop is actually for those going from Kuala Lumpur to Malaysia. In front of the mall ✔️
you are 100% right man because i had experienced it at tuas checkpoint and there was this one switzerland white guy got interrogated at singapore ktm train station in woodlands because he was snapping pictures at the station and there also this one ireland white guy who get deported back at changi airport because his passport got a little tear at the back
Lovely video, Aimara & Gordon. Just a quick question: Did you need to fill out any online forms prior to entering Malaysia? Something like SG Arrival Card? Thanks!
Honestly, we don't really remember. But I'm pretty sure everyone needs to fill out the SG arrival card before entering, no matter whether you enter by bus/car or plane.
one question to ask , your previous video say you only spend few day in malaysia but you spend few week in malaysia ( included ) sabah . now you back again . a feel you not to answer via text n better made a video
Hi! Not sure what you mean, but yes, before this trip we spent a whole month exploring Malaysia, this time we came back for 9 days but it was mostly to catch up with work. We didn't really make an extra KL video.
so i assumed that your previous 50 hours long flight to KL really worth it. KL is like home. might be not a perfect home but its home sweet home. hhehehe
There is no best bus from Singapore to KL: no matter which company you use the journey is painful. I have tried so many companies and for a while I swore off the trip altogether. But today I was traveling with some special luggage so I tried the bus again. I booked Transtar as it has been noted a “luxury” carrier. But there’s not much luxury aside from the very wide, reclining seats. No blankets, no wifi, no entertainment system, but there was a charging outlet. But that’s not the problem. The issues are the boarder and the “lunch break”. If you board at Jurong East you can save up to an hour on your journey as most companies drive around Singapore picking up passengers at various points. This is painful. But the border involves stopping and disembarking at both the Singapore and Malaysian checkpoints. Everyone one must get their passport checked and luggage as well in the arrival country. Then you must wait for stragglers. We left Jurong East at 9AM, but were not through the Malaysian check until after 11AM. THEN at noon the bus stopped at the same awful “rest stop” that all of the busses seem to stop at. As far as I could tell, few people had lunch-mostly we just waited for the driver. We did not arrive at JBS (the large bus station on the south side of KL) until just before 4PM, about 6 hours after we left Johor. The distance is less than 300 km. That’s a slow trip. Given how cheap flights can be on Air Asia or FireFly, it’s best to drive.
looks very comfortable, taking the bus to Kuala Lumpur from Singapore, more comfortable than taking a plane. How long does it take to take the bus from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur? greeting from England
An express bus will take about 4-5 hours, but of course it depends on traffic and border control. I think the bus we took has a different schedule than other buses, and border control was empty so we flew through. Cheers 🙌
First off.... My wife and I love your videos. I am probably missing something, but I am looking for the link to the Air B&B that you stayed at. We are visiting KL in November and may want to check that out. Thank you.
Hey guys! Thanks for the kind words! No, you're not missing anything, I just forgot to add it to the description lol. Here you have it: www.airbnb.com/rooms/27297612?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=75360a90-660d-4e92-bd3a-14e126f2c196 and here's also the link to the other Airbnb we stayed at in KL (on our first visit). A slightly better location, but you really can't beat the price from the other one! www.airbnb.com/rooms/29332402?check_in=2023-02-24&check_out=2023-03-04&guests=1&adults=2&s=67&unique_share_id=f35ad4b6-3ec3-4e5f-a478-14006d27e300 Thanks for letting us know by the way :) Happy to hear you're going to KL! Have so much fun in Malaysia! ❤️🇲🇾
Don't trust the ad so much. I took the solitare bus today. The bus WTY3999 was late for 20 mins and driver didn't apologize. The interior of the bus was old and dirty. Meal was ok and the attendant in the bus was polite. Driver was smoking inside the bus while driving.
It sucks that you had a bad experience, but this is not an ad 😂 we payed for our tickets - and this video was just our actual experience! Maybe we were just lucky, who knows... but for us it wasn't bad at all. Obviously it's not the same for everyone...
Thanks for this video, it's so informative and fun to watch! I'm thinking of going from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur by bus as well but I'm a bit concerned about the proof of onward travel that they might ask for when I'm entering Singapore. Is it enough proof of onward travel to have a bus ticket? Did you get asked for it when you came into Singapore?
Thanks so much for watching! ❤️ We didn't have our bus booked when we entered SG lol - but we did fly there from KL. They didn't really ask for anything, other than where we were staying and stuff like that... But it's better if you do have something booked! A bus ticket should count :)
New subscriber here. Going to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur in May 2024 first time for both cities and this made me want to do the bus instead of flying! Do they assign seats when you book the ticket? Thank you.
Hi Kevin :) Yes, all that info is in the description of the video. Here you have it just in case: The company we used is called Transtar Travel. We used this website to book our tickets: easybook.com There are going to be several companies listed there, and they're probably similar, but we can only recommend the one we used. Safe travels! :)
quick question... what's the policy on mask wearing now on the trains/monorail/buses in both Malaysia AND Singapore? I'm on the Transtar website and it mentions mandatory mask wearing while on the bus. From all the recent travel vlogs I've watched, there aren't that many people wearing masks now. *I'm not for/against mask wearing.. just curiously asking. thanks!*
Hello - there is no policy that I'm aware of that mandates mask wearing while using public transportation. We certainly were never instructed to wear it - so it's just a personal preference thing at this point 👍
Hey guys did you need to show proof of exit when you entered Singapore? Same question when you entered Malaysia, did they ask for a proof of return ticket or onward ticket?
Howdy, yea I'm pretty sure it's a requirement for SG. The entry is all digital, so I guess it was asked then. But honestly, I don't remember. For Malaysia I wasn't asked (US passport), my wife was asked (Venezuela Passport). I think it's best to be safe for both countries.
Dont travel with transtar bus, often late, often last minute announcement, drive much slower than other bus, 90 minutes longer and no toilet on the bus.
They are generally not super strict with luggage in these buses... we're not 100% sure because we travel with carry-on, but we saw people with bigger suitcases ;)
Hello, I have a question regarding the border crossing when traveling through transtar from Singapore to Malaysia. Do you know the name of the border crossing they go through by any chance? Thank you so much!
Follow up question if you mind my asking; how long does the immigration take? And what did immigration look like? As American citizens do you have e to pay at the Malaysian side border crossing for any type of visa? Thank you!!
I think at around noon or so... there are many options... we listed the website we booked through in the description, so you can check the schedules there.
