About StarMart Express SG

What are the Bus Classes & Prices of StarMart Express SG?

The price of your bus trip will depend both on the destination and the class of your ticket. Note that not all ticket classes are available on certain routes yet for longer trips there is almost always a good choice of options. Opt for a sleeper coach for the most convenient overnight trip. Sleeper buses are usually equipped with berths or soft reclining seats, feature an onboard toilet and your ticket may also include other perks like snacks or even a lunch. Taking a night bus is also a good idea if you want to save on your hotel room. During the day an express service is often the best value for money as it makes less stops than an ordinary or standard class bus and travels faster. On some routes it may be crucial to choose the right class as, say, an ordinary or second class bus may need some 6 hours to cover the distance the first class or express bus travels in two hours!

Pros & Cons of Bus Travel

Pros of Bus Travel

  • Buses usually boast the widest network of destinations covered. They travel to the places you cannot get to by plane or even by train

  • Travelling by bus is easy – there is no need to arrive to the bus terminal much in advance, and the check-in is usually a very fast formality opposite to air travel

  • Bus tickets are very affordable. Yes, there are costly first class or VIP options but is you are on a budget, bus is the first means of transportation you have to think about

  • At the same time, there are different classes of service to suit any budget. If you are after a higher level of comfort, buses get you covered, too.

Cons of Bus Travel

  • Intercity bus terminals can be located outside the city centre in the outskirts. It means you will need to calculate extra time and money to get there. In certain destinations getting from the bus terminal can cost you more than you would expect because only a limited number of transportation companies is allowed to serve the route – and prices may be inflated.

  • During busy weekends or high season buses serving some tourist destinations may run out of schedule and require advanced booking.

  • While buses are not as weather dependent as ferries, bus trips can also be delayed or cancelled due to bad weather or road conditions – keep it in mind if travelling during certain seasons or to certain destinations.

Driver was helpful. The secret is to travel very late at night. Everything is so smooth and not so much people in the bus and immigrations.

The Bus is confortable. However, the retrieval of actual tickets if you got the first trip @ 6am is quite difficult. They have 2 offices, one at the front of the building and one inside. Make sure to go yo the office inside the building since at first lot of us tourists are confused why they are no attendants in the office outside (since we thought it was, not knowing there's another office inside). Some nationals are murmuring in their language because of this confusion. No one guided us. But the moment you're on the bus, everthing is okay.

The customer service is good and friendly, even help us to shift to earlier timing on the spot. However the delay was unacceptable. We started at 8.45 and supposed to reach Melaka around 1 pm, but we ended up reaching around 4 pm. A wobbly 3 hours delay without any explanation.

Most disorganized bus company. Bus service changed 5 minutes before departure time. Took us to Malaysia border in one bus and put us on another after that. The bus did not stop anywhere for toilet break.

Good service. Bus came to the point on time, but was about 1h too late at the arrival point. The walk over the border worked fast and without troubles. Air conditioning in the middle of the bus was very cold but I just changed seat. Seats are big and very comfortable. I would choose this company again!!

Very good services. I booked ticket online and showed e-confirmation on the phone to the operator to get paper ticket. The ticket office is inside the Golden Mile Tower (go inside through the main door and it located on the right). The bus came very on time. The seat was big (as the photo) and could adjust angle to support your back and legs to have a good sleep. The inside space of bus was clean. The driver was very friendly and willing to support. The ride was fast, safe and smooth. It stopped 1 time at the halfway for rest and toilet (about 15 minutes). I arrived to Kualar Lumpur at 12h15 as the bus operator stated. FYI on border protocol: at the checkpoint in Singapore, go out of bus for passport control (you can leave your luggages on the bus), then go through the border gate to the bus (you have to remember the number plate of your bus to check the location of the bus which is showed on the electronic board and walk to it by yourself - no tourguide in here). The bus will run about 30 minutes to the checkpoint of Malaysia. You go out again with all your luggages, move into the border gate for immigration and scanning your luggages (it's simpler than in the airport), then find your bus again in the yard (there is no electronic board as in the Singapore so you have to find it by your eyes - that's why you have to remember the number of the bus and even the face of driver). Have a good trip!

The service both at the counter in Singapore and on board was poor. No information given and especially by the boarder, it was just dictated to get off, but no information where to re-boarder. The aircon was terrible

Bus very clean and comfortable with massage seat and you can tilt the backrest and the calf rest. Sleep is easy in this bus. One small detail is that the driver smoked one time. For those you don’t support the smelt of cigarette, it can be very disturbing, especially for European people where smoked in public area (transports included) is strictly prohibited. Otherwise everything was perfect. I recommande ????

The bus is comfortable, but you just be aware that it's most likely going to take longer than the hours indicated. The traffic can be heavy, and you can wait a lot of time at the border before to restart. I give two stars as rating because I think it's unfair to indicate the best hypothesis instead of the expected or average one. However, the journey itself is ok.

Mit den bequemen Sitzen im Bus und umsichtigen Fahrweise des Fahrers waren wir sehr zufrieden. Ansonsten begann unsere Reise 45min nach dem vereinbarten Zeitpunkt um 12:15 Uhr in Singapur. Auch in Johor Bahru starteten wir meiner Meinung nach viel zu spät gegen 14Uhr. (geplante Ankunftszeit in KL :16:40 Uhr). Die Fahrt nahm kein Ende... Staus über mind. 100km vor KL, extremste Schlange vor der Damentoilette während der einzigen Rast... dadurch weitere Verzögerung. Keine Versorgung mit Wasser während der Fahrt. Klimaanlage blies ständig kalte Luft heraus und konnte nicht reguliert werden. Ankunft zunächst auf zentralem Busbahnhof vor KL. Es stellte sich heraus, dass bereits bei den Singapur ausgetauschten Tickets das Ziel auf zentralen Busbahnhof geändert worden war. Die Internetbestätigung überzeugte den Fahrer dann Gott sei Dank doch noch in die Stadt zu fahren. ->Ankunft am Berjaya Time Square um 22:30Uhr!!!

We were supposed to depart at 11.30..arrived there they changed the time to 11.45,but we left it was almost 1 o clock.. The first bus was old, half broken and you had to take a seat random. The second bus was really comfortable,(the air con was kept at Max the whole time..I got a bad sore throat) We were supposed to arrive at 4.40..we arrived at 10.30pm..and we stopped only once!! Further more the driver didn’t say that there was two stops..if someone that was on the bus with us didn’t explained us that we were so far from the city we would have been left at the first bus stop without an explanation.. Truly disappointing..the 2starts are o my for the comfort of the second bus!

Bus driver and staff were friendly and helpful. Seats were comfortable, but make sure that you don‘t sit in the last row due to limited leg room and no chance to recline. We should take the Bus at 10.30 at City Plaza but we‘re told to take a Taxi to Golden Mile Tower beacuse all busses are starting at this point. We hadn‘t the information until 10 minutes before the actual departure. Also we had to advance money for the Taxi, but we got it back immediately. The bus departure at Golden Mile Tower was planned at 11:00 but startet at 11:20. Unfortunately there was 50 minutes delay before our actual departure. In addition we had a delay about 2 hours beacuse of the immigration process which expected to took that long. All in all the trip was ok but the planned journey time should be adjusted because it is completely unrealistic.

The seats and bus is not comfortable as advertised. Before getting to customs, we had free sitting, very old bus. On the way to Berjaya Towers Center we made few stops, and this made super long trip (11 hours!!!) even longer.

Driver was good, bus was great, bus was in time. Only Problem: I had to take the manual line at the boarder control and it took me 2 hours. So the bus couldn't wait so long and was away with my bag. I can understand it and the organized it quite good. Because another bus took me to the next stop and there was my bag and I could take the next bus to Malakka. But it would be great if the bus driver informed us before border control.

safe travel the entire trip , we arrived in our destination earlier than the said estimated arrival which is good because we do have lots of time to look for our hotel here in Malaysia, nice crew and pleasant surrounding — all in all me and friend enjoy the whole trip ????
