Getting to Genting Theme Parks

Hello,

Our family of 5 are heading to Genting Theme Parks from KL on Sat May 26. We are staying at the Brisdale Hotel, and although I have looked up the Genting Express Bus, I%26#39;m not sure if this only takes you to the Resort or to Outdoor theme park (or is it one in the same)? Do you have to ride the cable car?

I would love some transport advice, as well as any tips on booking the sky venture in advance, and any must dos. Our children are 13,11 %26amp; 7 and we only have the day there.

Thanks for any help!

Getting to Genting Theme Parks

In most likelihood, the bus will stop at the cable car station (which is half way up Genting Highlands) and you%26#39;ll have to buy the cable car tickets on the spot to go up to somewhere in between the Resorts Hotel and Themepark Hotel. You kids will love the cable car trip!

From there, it%26#39;s pretty easy to navigate the various attractions. There%26#39;s an Indoor Theme Park as well as Outdoor. I think you can purchase an All -Park ticket or similar to that. Enjoy!.

And if you feel lucky, the adults can go to the few casinos there. The whole Highland is developed by the Genting group, and the various hotels are pretty integrated. Good for day trip. There%26#39;re buses to KL like every 15 mins. Though I%26#39;m not sure till what time.

Getting to Genting Theme Parks

And oh, Genting Highlands can get quite chilly esp. at night. But this time of year, should be warm to cool at day.

you can check with Genting website, they do have the shuttle information posted there. I also know that there are coaches plying this route at every hour interval departing at Pudu and Pasar Rayakat bus terminal. In fact, I believe the coach actually pick up passengers from both terminal before departing for Genting. Last year price was RM7.20/way. Alight at cable car station, pay another p[rice for upward journey to resort. All pricing, I think can be found at www.genting.com.my... ( hope I got it right). Best way to sruf for information is... www.yahoo.com.my, search for any MY information under MALAYSIA ..

ok, u do not have to ride the cable car.

one method, which i often use is:

1) you gotta get to TITIWANGSA station.

2) there you%26#39;ll alight and head for the PEKELILING bus terminal visible from the train station.

3) u will then have to hop on the genting bus, which is maroon red with the genting words on it. buses depart every 1/2 hr till bout 10 or 11 at night. fare is RM5.60 per person.

the bus ride will be approx. 1 hr plus and will berth at the first world hotel bus terminal. which has an indoor theme park and a short walk to theme park hotel which is where the outdoor theme park is.

cheers

actually u may wanna consider taking a taxi up, since ur family will all fit into one. if i am not wrong, please correct me if im wrong, itd cost u only bout 70RM depending on ur bargaining skill for the whole cab.

Thankyou for the responses everyone. Maybe we could bus one way and taxi back. I wasn%26#39;t sure if the taxis would fit the 5 of us plus the driver, or are there many taxi vans? And would a taxi be easy to get from the theme parks back to KL? It would be great to be dropped off at our front door after a long day out!!

Typical MY taxi is rather small, given most of you are larger in size, I am not sure it can fit so many of you. I did it in Penang and KL, 3 adults, 3 kids (4,6,12). It was rather tight inside the cab. Actaully, if you can fit all of you, I think the taxi driver won%26#39;t mind, but he may probably ask for a little more as compensation.

If you have been to Singapore and had taken a taxi before, can you imagine MY taxi is about 25% smaller.

i think the cab shd be able to fit all of yall. daddy in front of cuz, mummy and 3 boys, one rather small at the back. oh well, worth a shot.. anyway theres always the bus!

btw how much u paid for the trip? the most ive heard is 100RM but thats cuz he fella took way past midnight. but i heard between 50 and 70 rm is ok...

bbmars, i took b4 i think i paid 70rm, cannot rmember too long ago. cuz nowadays i usually juz take the bus a lil longer but much cheaper.

oh, the last time was I was there, one of my wife%26#39;s friend just any how grab a taxi up there.. costing a bomb without even bargain... but then was long time ago. I am exploring my option for my future trip to KL.

Would certainly like to consider taking a trip up to Genting, Colmar Tripicale, Mines Resort too.

I have transport from Times Square to Colmar Tripicale at SG6.80 (I think) book at at Berjaya office SG. For Mines, I can just take a KTM train there from KL Sentral. For Genting, can take at Pasar Raykat Bus terminal. Just that, I need to arrange and plan for my timing as I can%26#39;t go on longer leave and my children always like to go back to Comos Theme park and MId Valley, which left me with little time for other things.
