Butterworth Railway Station to Ipoh Destination Reviews

K
Delayed leaving and arriving in Ipoh but summer holidays so was to be expected! Good communication from the driver about my stop and checking where I needed to get off. Seats very cramped though - especially if you're unlucky and the person in front fully reclines!

Bus was delayed 2 hours, bus driver was smoking whilst driving so all I could smell was smoke, bus driver wouldn’t let me drink any water during the trip and told me where I had to put my legs- I am very tall and have long legs, the leg room wasn’t sufficient enough so I had to have my legs slightly to the side. Felt very uncomfortable throughout the whole journey.
