Kuala Lumpur Bus Service

Kula Lumpur has an extensive bus network that connects the major areas of the city with one another. Traveling by bus is the easiest and the cheapest mode of transportation inside the city.

You can find bus stops located in almost all corners of the streets of the city. Thus, you can stand in any bus stop and get a bus that will take you to your chosen destination. Boarding a bus, however, becomes difficult during the morning rush hours and during the evenings. It is during these times that the buses are crammed as the whole city is either going to their places of work or are returning home. Hence, tourists are advised to avoid boarding buses during the rush hours.
