Buses into Johor Bahru, Malaysia

by xuessium

BUSThe rough-it-out way to get into Johor Bahru is to take the Causeway Link bus, the Singapore-Johore Express or Singapore's SBS Bus service 170. The last 2 terminate at Ban San Street near Bugis MRT station. The terminal is behind a church (The Church of the Lady of Good Lourdes). Service CW2 of the Causeway Link bus also terminates here.Bus 170 takes a long time to get pass the causeway as it picks up passengers along the way as long as you don't mind seeing Singapore from South to North. The journey takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour. The fare is S$1.70. The bus terminates at Larkin Terminal over at Johor Bahru, which is a little middle of nowhere. Get off after clearing customs on the Johor Bahru side - you are already in the thick of things. The Singapore-Johore Express is also another cheap way to get into Johor, travelling more or less the same route as Bus 170 but less labourous...

All about Singapore's taxis

by xuessium

There are 7 taxi companies in Singapore though it essentially boils down to one dominant player (Comfort-Citycab-Yellow Top merger), one medium size player (SMRT) and 3 small ones (Trans-cab, SMART cab & Premier silver cab). Heavily regulated by the government, all cabs starts at a fare of S$2.50 and then 10 cents is added every 210m for the first 10kms and 10 cents is added for every 175m after 10kms thereafter. Taxis also charged a varieties of surcharges - peak hour surcharges at S$2, midnight surcharges on a tier basis, central business district surcharges (S$1), public holiday surcharges (S$1) and airport peak hour surcharges (S$5).Generally, it will cost about S$15 to travel from the airport at the Eastern end of Singapore into the City which is at the Central Southern part of the island.NUMBERS TO CALL FOR TAXIS (Booking charges of S$2.50 non-peak-S$4 peak applies):Comfort-Yellow...

Onward bound for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

by xuessium

Fly, Train or Coach.FLY: Easiest. Catch Japan Airlines (cheapest at S$128 when on offer), Sri Lankan Airlines (S$160 offer), Qatar Airways, Malaysian Airlines and Singapore Airlines from Singapore's Changi Airport. 35 minutes journey. Downside: the 50-60 Ringgit connecting the 1 hr+ journey from KLIA into KL.(I am not bothering with Air Asia from Senai)TRAIN: 8-10 hours ride from Tanjong Pagar train station in Singapore. Not the most comfortable but perhaps the most "romantic" with some imagination.COACH: NICE, AEROLINE & TRANSTAR buses (costing about S$100 both ways) are the most comfortable. Aeroline coaches depart from Harbourfront and end at Corus Hotel, opposite KLCC in KL. NICE coaches depart from Novotel Orchid Hotel and end at the old KTMB railway station in KL. 5 hours journey for both. (I have never tried Transtar's) GRASSLAND and other coaches (Transnational, Sri Maju, Gunung...

MRT

by Ewingjr98

Singapore's Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) is the cheapest and easiest way to get around the downtown areas of Singapore. With only three lines it is never too difficult to find your way around. The Red Line runs north/south with an east/west section at the northern end of the island. The Green Line runs basically east/west and is the route connecting downtown to the airport. Finally, the Purple Line runs northeast and southwest of city center. Fares on the MRT range from 1.80 Singapore Dollars (S$) from Boon Lay to the Airport to S$.80 to go from Raffles Place to City Hall. Perhaps the worst feature of the Singapore Subway systems is this: If you do not have a pre-paid card (which most tourists won't), you must pay S$1 extra when you buy your ticket before riding, get a card to swipe at the machines guarding the entrance to the trains, then return that card at a ticket vending machine after...
