As Las Vegas is popularly known as the city of sin, so is the Genting Highlands in Malaysia. Its ability to provide both legal gamblings in the casinos as well as other forms of entertainment is what makes it one of the most sought after tourist destination. As a result, both local and international visitors will go to this highland throughout the year making it packed. While planes and taxis can be a bit expensive; if your budget does not allow then opt to travel by bus to Genting.  Here are three reasons why a bus is your best means of transport;

Convenient; there are various bus services making trips in and out of the highlands. Therefore, you can get a cheap bus which passes along different routes even at night. Buses are also one of the most used public transport in the highlands as they are fast and can cover long distances. The bus network in this region is well organized therefore you can easily find a bus station or an agent selling bus ticket in many places.

Comfortable; most people will shy away from using buses especially for long distance travels. However, a majority of coach bus services are clean, and the drivers are registered with the relevant bodies giving them permits to travel to different destinations around Malaysia. Other services such as WIFI, snacks, charging outlets and TV to keep you entertained are also available to make your journey enjoyable and comfy.

Eco-friendly; a bus has ample space to carry many people in a single trip which makes it a green form of transport. If every individual in that bus used their own cars, the fossil fuel used and carbon emission released would be high resulting in more damage to the environment.

Conclusion;

Tourists coming into the highland should consider traveling by bus as it is safe, convenient and has many more advantages.
