haha u wan stay one more night? I can pass u my room. i taking sunday midnight bus up, I leaving on Tues around 4pm

No need to torture yourself with the 7 hours overnight bus nowadays arriving just before dawn.
Take the low cost airlines. Really cheap. Recommend TigerAir. If not fussy about timing can get SG-KLIA return for as low as $70. Pay by AXS machine, not credit card. Take MRT to Changi and from KLIA2 direct bus to GH.

the midnight bus I really fast, I usually reach before around 430am when I take the 1130pm bus. so its around 5 hours only.

I don't stay in the east so it's pretty troublesome to lug my luggage everywhere with the numerous change of transport. going back to klia from genting is as troublesome, take bus change bus etc, or expensive, taxi.

Ya lor for those not staying in the east area...its senseless to take flight. Travel all the way to airport, wait, reached at KL Airport, take bus,

Come back still have a freaking long way home...haha i rather drive if not take a nite coach. Save the trouble

Hi I'm planning to go Genting on the 16th Oct, but couldn't decide how to get there.

Option 1: Reach Genting around 8pm
- Budget airline to KLIA2, take Aerobus to Genting. (does the bus go all the way up to the Genting hotels or does it stop at the Mushroom farm?)

Option 2: Reach Genting around 5am?
- Take 9.30pm coach from Singapore straight to Genting hotel.

How long does the overnight coach takes to reach Genting?

Cheaper to go by budget airline nowadays and you don't get tired out by the 6 hours overnight bus arriving before dawn.
Tigerair $70 return, pay by AXS machine. Jetstar $80 return, pay at any 7-11 store. Others more expensive.
Coach KLIA2 to Genting RM35.
Must check-in before 7pm.

Depends if you are familiar with the routing. Web check-in go straight to passport machine to boarding gate.
I suppose with the younger man 6-7 hours overnight bus arriving before dawn is not so terrible as for the old persons.

First time travelling to Genting after 10 years. Please advice me on the following qns:

1) Where to book hotel/transport ?

I went to cntown agency and ask 1 by 1 for hotel&tpt. Will I kanna Robert Carrot? The result I got back is very surprising. For 3d2n, price range from SGD110 - SGD280. Why like tt ? I am going at a non-peak period.

2) I got the old old blue/white genting card which is expired 4 years ago. Planning to do a new 1 this time. If want get benefits what do you advice is the best card to get? Or rather I can't choose because am a low spender?

3) I shortlisted a SGD200 for 3d2n Resort hotel (I think better than FW)with bus to and fro golden mile. Worth it ? Top up SGD20 for bus to stop at hotel itself, is the walk v far if no stop at hotel?

4) Too good to be true?.... Another quoted me SGD110 for FW with bus. How come so big different?

5) I saw someone say zhi char stall, do I need to pay for the van downhill? How much so I wont get carrot?

6) Is there a strawberry farm? Worth to go? Price?

7) I can't check Resort hotel rates online. But I see FW is about 50-65 per night. So I assume resort for 3d2n at resort is good enough?

8) Which agency do u guys usually go when book for genting package? Good coach and value price! wont chop carrot

ya but I think its troublesome for peep who stay in the far west and have to travel to Changi and take flight...after which came back also a long journey home..lol if u know wat i mean.

For me i stayed in Jurong West Area so it really not a ideal options to take flight.

Yo Denikeve Bro...i came back from the drive last week, its not as bad...the traffic was surprisingly smooth athought its the long week end period. Did won some from the Wheel of Fortune haha the big wheel one.

After that went to Malacca...Nice..
