The island country of Singapore is located ahead of the southern region of Malaysia. Its tropical climate and strong transport system, cultural diversity, nightlife, unique food and beautiful local markets make it a popular tourist destination.
Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, is also an extremely popular tourist destination due to its diversity in culture as well as its population. Its extremely attractive local cuisines and the various shopping opportunities it provides, make it an exciting place to visit.

Buses from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur cover the entire distance of a little less than 360 Kms on a trip of about 5 hours.
