Going on a road trip whether via car, bus or train is an essential part of traveling and to be able to do that it in a foreign country makes the experience so much more memorable and fun. So in this guide, the travel time from one country to another will take hours but I assure you - it will truly be fun! So without further ado, below is our step by step guide to visit all three countries under 3,300 pesos!
Start your journey at Singapore
If this is your first time in Singapore, there is nothing to worry as exploring the country is pretty easy via their train station. So regardless of where you stay, reaching the station to go to the next country will hassle-free. So once you are done exploring Singapore, your next destination will be Malaysia.How to Go to Malaysia from Singapore:
From your hotel, head to the nearest train station you can find and use the site go there.sg to navigate your way to the terminal station to Malaysia. The great thing about that site is that you get a step by step direction how to reach your destination including walking distance, estimated time of arrival and even fare price.
There are different bus and train stations heading to Malaysia. You have the option to alight at Johor Bahru if you are visiting Legoland or head straight to Kuala Lumpur if you plan to visit the top tourist destinations.
The great thing about traveling from Singapore to Malaysia is that you can actually plan and buy your tickets in advance via 12go.asia. Just indicate you are coming from Singapore and which city you wish to visit in Malaysia first.
Singapore to Malaysia by Train
For Legoland in Johor Bahru, the best and cheapest station is via Woodlands, Singapore train terminal. Cost of train ticket is approximately USD $6 or 278 pesos. Travel time is 5 minutes.
Singapore to Malaysia by Bus
For Kuala Lumpur, the best and cheapest station is via the Golden Mile Complex, Singapore. Cost of the bus ticket is USD $18 or 859 pesos. Travel time is 5 hours and 15 minutes.
Exploring Malaysia
Malaysia is a big country so you might have to do a lot of bus travel to be able to visit their top tourist destinations. But if you wish to stay in just one city, I recommend Kuala Lumpur. To travel from one city to another, you can definitely rely on 12go.asia too.When exploring Malaysia, make sure your last day will be at Kuala Lumpur as this will be the best city to reach our next destination. Our next country to visit in Bangkok and it's going to be very exciting!
How to Go to Bangkok from Malaysia:
Book tickets via 12go.asia
1. One of the best ways to travel from Malaysia to Bangkok is to travel from Kuala Lumpur Sentral to Padang Besar by train. This will only cost you approximately USD $21 or 1,057 pesos. Travel time is 5 hours and 54 minutes.
2. From Padang Besar, Songkhla takes the train to Hua Lamphong in Bangkok. Now this train ride will take 17 hours and 10 minutes so we recommend buying the 2nd class sleeper AC for only USD $40 or 1,953 pesos.
Highlight: Riding a Sleeper Train to Bangkok
Inside the train, passengers have their own bed and visit the cafeteria to eat. It can get a little boring sometimes but if you consider the view and the chance to just relax after all the traveling and walking, it is all worth it.
Exploring Bangkok
Although you can't reach the best places in Bangkok via their train system, riding a taxi is easy and cheap via Grab. I believe the initial fee is less than USD $2 or 100 pesos. So as soon as you reach Bangkok, don't hesitate to ride a taxi to your hotel.Sources:
