Traveling in Johor

Squall-Leonhart · Post time 8-9-2004 08:47 PM

Hello all Johor forumers,

This thread is intended to help foreign travelers to travel all over Johor easily, so put all informative infos that will help the foriegn tourists such as accomodation, hotels, good restaurants, resorts, interesting places etc. Every threads with informative values will be rewarded with some credits by me or karynn. Please, no borak or chit-chatting, okay? All borak-borak or chit-chatting postings in this thread will be deleted.

I'll start first...

VIA ROADS AND HIGHWAYS

Johor is accessible easily from Negeri Sembilan, Melaka, Pahang and Singapore. From Melaka, you can enter Johor via Federal Route 5 (Melaka - Muar road), Expressway E1 (PLUS expressway) and some state routes. For those who are from Pahang, you can access Johor via Federal Route 3 (East coastial road) and Federal Ruote 12 (Segamat - Kuantan highway a.k.a Tun Razak highway). However, the only main road from Negeri Sembilan is Federal Route 1.

Singaporeans may enter Johor via Federal Route 1 (Johor causeway) or Expressway E3 (Second Link Expressway).

TRAINS

Trains are available along a sole railroad running from north via Gemas to the south via Johor Bahru.

AIR TRAVEL

The main international airport to Malaysia is Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) but some destinations such as Singapore or Jakarta can fly directly to Senai Airport, located about 30 km from Johor Bahru. From the airport, you can go to Johor Bahru via Federal Route 16 (Senai Airport ---> Senai) and then Federal Highway 1 (Skudai highway to Johor Bahru).

Travelers from KLIA may need to take other transportations such as buses to go to Johor.

which is the cheapest hotel in JB??and any intersting place to go???

sutera_abadi · Post time 3-2-2005 04:50 PM

Hapilly, what is your budget...
kalau nak budget lagi murah dari yg kat atas tu....
most probably... tempat tu jauh dari Jb (Lebih kurang 15km dari bandaraya JB)..... maybe somewhere area Johor Jaya or Permas JAya....
tapi kalau betul-betul nak area JB, selalu tu tempat tu, maaf cakap... sekadar 'rumah tumpangan' aje...

while interesting place to go tu plak..... area JB ni sebenarnya bukanlah syurga tempat orang jalan-jalan.... kalau nak pergi shopping boleh laa....
eniway kalau nak jalan-jalan gak, maybe bleh pergi Istana Abu Bakar (kat pantai Lido tu..., Danga Bay...., lagi... ermm... tak sure laaa

Kat daerah Segamat, korang yang suker makan durian tu bleh laa berkunjung kat daerah Segamat setiap Jun [nie yang confirm nyer, time sebenar tak pasti] iaitu musim durian kat Segamat.

Satu lagi, selain kat Air Terjun Kota Tinggi dgn Air Terjun Gunung Ledang, korang bleh gak gie kat Air Terjun Bekok kat daerah Segamat untuk mandi-manda.
