KL Sentral to Butterworth Destination Reviews

Very clean and comfortable
KL Sentral to Butterworth, Bus Express, Suasana Edaran Express, Dec 14, 2025

Lounge chair ride. Good experience all round. DIY bags under bus a bit of a struggle and source of angst.

The trip was okay speedy and efficient. My only complaint is that the driver spent the whole time chatting on the phone solidly for four hours. The conversation was loud at times and made it difficult to sleep as I was at the front. How can you concentrate on that driving when you’re having conversation with your family all the time. I think it was a safety issue for me to be honest. And there were times when he pulled up very sharply in the traffic

The service was on time and comfortable. If you don't speak the local language, get up and ask for English when they make an announcement so you don't miss your stop.

It took 7h when they said it would take 5h. And it wasn’t cause of re traffic, the bus just moves insanely slow which they absolutely know about

The bus itself was okay, it had reclining seats and aircon but the seats were very short for western travellers. But I had a bad experience because the driver made multiple uninformed stops, to onload and offload various boxes. Clearly he was earning some cash on the side for this but it did make me uncomfortable. Then at the bus stop, no announcement was made. We were pulled over by the side of the road and I had no access to the map so I didn’t know this was the stop. The driver also didn’t get out or open the luggage compartment so this lead me to believe it was just another random stop. After the bus set off again, I asked the driver when the stop was as we were no longer seeing signs for Butterworth. He then proceeded to drop me off (a woman travelling alone) in the middle of a dual carriageway. I had to walk on the dangerous road with my luggage because of his failure as a driver. I wouldn’t recommend this service.

The seats are soo comfortable. It was a long drive it felt way shorter than that. There are bathroom breaks and I had a lot of space.
