Train Singapore->Malaysia: ways to buy ticket cheap(-er)?

Hello,

Yes we did consider taxi, but can you take taxi all the way to JB station? And do you have an idea of the price? TX!

Well, there's many reasons why we choose to travel by train....! We have plenty of time, we save a night hotel, we're gonna see other things then when flying etc... tx anyway but we'll try the train!

We last took the taxi more than 3 years ago. Back then it was SGD10 per person.
So for you & 3 kids, that will be SGD40. Good in the sense it is like chartering the whole taxi. Other wise, they will wait for 4 people (i.e. the taxi is full) before moving.
It will stop opposite Kota Raya in JB.

I am not sure how strict the security is, the last time, we had to get out of the taxi for the immigration to take our photos. This was at the SG side. In JB, you just pass your passport to the imigration counter. No need to get out of the taxi for photos, unless requested by customs.

The process might be different now.

Many thanks Aarbain, taxi all the way might be a good idea!

stefjesplivskyeask,

After your trip, will you let us know what you found out? My wife and I are doing this route as well and we are interested to hear what you find out.

Thanks,
David
