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.
