Trip cancelled, replaced with another trip with 1 hour late. Main language for communication is in Malay. A bit difficult for non Malay speaking.

We really enjoyed the journey! Our bus we on time, the driver was nice and gave us all the info. We stopped as mentioned on the ticket. We also arrived half an hour earlier than expected! I really reccomend this company

The bus started on time and had comfortable seats. The bus driver drove also safe and was friendlier than other bus drivers we experienced. We arrived a bit after scheduled time at KL (~30 minutes) but as it was a Friday afternoon and a lot of traffic this is probably difficult to avoid. So overall good experience.
