Frequent express buses ply the Singapore – Kuala Lumpur route daily, with most of the companies plying between Golden Mile Complex in Singapore and Terminal Bersepadu Selatan in Kuala Lumpur.
The direct journey from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur takes approximately 6 hours, which equates to a 2 to 6 hour time saving as compared with the KTM Intercity and ETS train combination with 2 transfers.
It is good to note that if you are travelling on a budget and are concerned about the cleanliness and quality of buses, it is generally better to pay a couple of dollars extra for a bus from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur than heading to Johor Bahru Larkin for a cheaper bus. Even a reliable company that departs from Singapore may have different standards for their bus departing from Johor Bahru Larkin.
Most popular buses use the Tuas Second Link to cross from Singapore to Malaysia, but some companies may use the Woodlands Checkpoint instead. It is best to double ckeck with the operator if you prefer a certain border crossing.
