Ipoh Airport to Penang Destination Reviews

JK
The Bus was in time and very clean the air condition was adjusted very well. I forgot something in the bus, and could collect it the day after - very easy and smooth. The company replied very fast. Great service.

The bus was early and arrived to destination early, which is great. The reason for 3 stars is that there was a high pitched indicator noise that went off the entire trip and about drove me mad.
