There are several ways of getting to Tg. Gemuk from KL if you're driving:
1) Exit North-South Expressway at Ayer Hitam to Kluang and either stopover for Mersing for food or go straight on to Tg. Gemuk
2) Exit North-South Expressway at Seremban, follow Kuala Pilah, Muadzam Shah and along the coastal road to Tg. Gemuk
3) Follow KL-Karak Highway and new highway to Kuantan and follow coastal road down to Tg. Gemuk. Don't know if this route will be any faster but it's an option if you want to stop by some interesting places in Pahang along the way too.

All buses from KL to Mersing will pass by Tanjung Gemuk so if you're getting to the public jetty just ask the bus driver to stop at Tanjung Gemuk jetty (tell him you want to go to Tioman Island or whichever island you're after). For directions to the LKIM Jetty, see next tip.
There are at least twice daily Transnational buses which ply the route from KL - Mersing and vice versa. Times are something like 11.00 a.m. and 11.00 p.m. but do call and check. The journey from KL - Tanjung Gemuk is approx. 6 hours and costs less than RM20.
Buy your tickets in advance at Transnational counters which are quite easily available (e.g. KL Sentral, Pudu Bus Station, KTM Railway Station, MATIC Jalan Ampang, even some PETRONAS stations) and you can go to any branch since their system is now computerised and they are now online.

I notice that for locations of places in Malaysia, VT is fond of putting village names with old-Malay spelling! *lol* Thus, Kampong Tanjung Gemok (literally "Fat Cape Village") instead of just Tanjung...
