Genting Highlands Price Guide comparision

[Sorrow]

Hi,

 

as stated above.... can anyone advise on whr to find a webby to do a comparison of the different packages by the various agencies.

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

Regards

[Melissa]

try these websites:

 

www.transtar.com.sg

or you go search on WTS, Five star etc.. plenty online.

But personally, i felt the rates at Transtar are much more better.

 

 

I have been there recently this year, and will be going again next month

 

Edited: it will be more much better if you go down to Golden Mile to check

the packages, plenty of agency. And you will also understand more about their 'rates'

hmm.... k k.... maybe will make a trip down on sat...thanks sis

if you are living in the west, there are several travel agencies branches at Boon Lay Shopping Center. You can board the coach at this location, and return the same place. This way, you dun have to travel to/fro Golden Mile Tower for the coach.

i leave near central area (bishan), so i tink golden mile will be nearer to me....but thanks for the recommendations ya

I prefer to book direct from Genting and drive myself up there.

I always enjoy the drive on NSHW. It also good for burning away the carbon in the engine.

[Gary84]

for me i always take Five Stars coach up Genting if i dun drive...Usually is abt S$128 for departure on fri night 930pm (normal coach), and returning on the sunday noon 1.30/2.30pm. For upgrade to 18seaters, additional $40.

[Familymanz]

long shot..... but who gonna drive there on this coming Monday???

[Dafansu]

your price of $128 only for coach?

[N00b]

wats the diff btween normal n 18 seater?

[Allen]

normal bus is 26 seaters.

personally i like to drive up to genting.

dun have to wait for others, own time own target.

eg, if u take a nite bus departing at 930 from spore on fri,

will have to stop at yong peng at 11+,

wait there for an hour, then will reach genting at around 6+ in the morning

cant check in unless u have book a room for fri.

if u take a morning coaches at 730, ie got to wake up at 6 in the morning

same thing stop a yong peng and

reach genting at 2+, where all coaches arrive around the same time,

check in will be a hassle and take forever as everyone wants to check in.

coming back, depart genting at 2, reach spore at 10+.

too much time wasted on waiting.

[N00b]

icic...how long u take 2 drive up?

[Allen]

normally it will take me around 4 hours.

including 1 fuel stop b4 climbing up and a short makan break.

normally will leave spore at around 9am and will reach hotel at 1+.

and even i left at 9, i will be able to see spore coach bound for genting

on karak highway.

ya bro, worse is when the coach breaks down. Which I kenna before, no joke man!!

[Gary84]

nope 128 is price for coach (to n fro) plus 1 night stay in First World Hotel.

Now i believe should be slightly higher due to the fuel surcharge. However i tink it shuld not be more than 140 ba..

[Gary84]

normal one is a 26-seater....of cos the executive class 18 seater would be more comfortable lor...

[Ah_dude]

had one few month back..

 

$198...2 nites at 1st world...the rooms are

 

24 /26 seater coach...ok la...sleep zzzz can't be bother too much

normally this is what i like to do, book a night coach, reach genting early morning about 530. go for breakfast and shopping, check in 12plus. resume my activity. i prefer night coach then morning coach cause will have an addtional half day tour. If i'm not wrong if u drive up you will be paying more than taking a coach.
