HI,guys,
Will go Sipadan diving next month,is there any over night bus from Tawau (or Semporna) to Kota Kinabalu?
any time table and how long it takes? we have to catch 13:10 flight to Macau next day.
what about the bus look like and what about the rate?
Cheers~


Hi there
there are night busses, I think they leave Tawau around 7.30 pm or 8 pm. Ask at the hotel desk in Tawau (at the dive resort they will know, too), or any taxi driver because I think you have to take a taxi anyway to the coach terminal.
Count around 12 hours for the trip, and the last time I did it (a year ago) it was RM75, might have gone up though.
The coaches are modern, 30-40 seats, and there are several companies. They show loud kung-fu or wrestling films (take ear pax along if you want to sleep) and have powerful aircon systems, excpect temperatures in the bus to be around the freezing point (take pull-over/jacket along!).
Happy Travelling
