[givansingapore]

Anyone know, along the NS Highway from SG to KL, it passed by a R&R which had 3 big-name fast food joint.. I vaguely remembered there is Burger King, A&W and cant remember the another? (Marrybrown? or KFC?)

Just search Ayer Keroh R&R bro.

 

[sunsetbay]

Seremban North bound R&R with A&W, BK, Ramly, papparich, EV charging stations etc~ Ayer Keroh R&R is the one that has overhead bridge resturants across both side, got A&W, KFC, pizzza etc~ both R&R won't go wrong~

I agree lol, 707 is the best transport operator for me. For the past 4 trips to Genting, I have travelled using 707 bus. Always on time & reach Genting early (9pm bus, reach at 1:45am - really F1 drivers lol) and the pricing is $70 return ticket which is very worth it. Recommend people to use 707!

What about on return trip. Which is the fastest. Somehow the return journey seem to take longer.

As long you picked a bus (707,ridewell, TravelOne,KKKL) that drive off the bus terminal before 11am.
Guaranteed reach SG without jam during non-peak season.

It is longer because of the detour and stopover at the local products store.

Take bus At Grantral Mall

Take bus At Grantral Mall

Just for awareness.. avoid taking bus at Grandtral Mall..
You will be in the last drop point.

Last trip, got a pair of elderly couple.. question driver why the bus drop passengers first at Tampines, then SengKang then Grandtral, even when the coach bus pass by the Paya Lebar first via PIE.

Reason: end of the day, the coach bus terminal bus park is very near Grandtral Mall.

Haha, more convenient for the driver in the end

 

[bruiser69]

I thought the changing of buses is to ensure safety coz it is unsafe to go uphill with double decker. So cannot blame them for the change. Unless you are referring to something else.

They can command the higher price because there are still customers who still think their buses are worth the additional money. And they seem to sell out pretty well. Maybe that is why their service can afford to be subpar.

Well I think the service is just about average. Nothing fantastic. What I don't like is that they tidak apa depending on their mood will send you whatsapp on their bus ride details (Sg to Genting). And you need to chase them for the bus details on the way back (Genting to Sg). Other operators will auto inform you huan.

end of day just book whatever price is comfortable to u

important is safetly

late reach better than nvr reach haha

It is longer because of the detour and stopover at the local products store.

the price for the local product store is not cheap. Some items are cheaper in SG if you go to shopping mall food fair.

I only get items not available here or that I don't see here. Anyway, the stopover is just for toilet break primarily. Sometimes I don't get anything. I missed the days when hot steam buns and cut fruits were sold outside the shop.

missed the buns and dimsum too.

we already have a toilet break prior to the departure. A break in batu cave which is just 1.5 hour later is ridiculous. Nice thing is they don't force you buy anything and just wasting time waiting only.

My concern is we pay the high premium bus fare like solitaire but still need to waste the time. ><

Kl to genting best way is just grab up all the way?

 

[kevinlaikf]

Yes

If Take MRT to KL Sentra, take Go-Genting bus to Awana Bus Terminal then cable car
(in the end, LPPL, take grab could be cheaper and more convenient)
