Sabah to Semporna Destination Reviews

SM

One who goes PDF and booking was clear and easy. The bus was in general comfortable but every hour or so one of the workers put really bad smelling chemicals in the bathroom and it smelled bad in the back half of the bus. something was loose and rattling really loudly in the back side of the bus making it hard to relax. The operators were very unfriendly
